I have fully transitioned into the next phase of my obsessions. I tried to play Destiny and get my dailies in before the night ended, but I ended up turning the game off in disgust. My quest for better gear, which seemed so bright and full of potential at first, has been reduced to a mere glimmer far behind me. I just don't care anymore. I am reminded that gaming is one of many passions I hold in this life. I throw away my gamer hat for a newly minted otaku-branded one.
I couldn't have picked a better time to get back into anime since most of the summer series should be wrapping up around this time, kicking off the avalanche of new fall ones. I finished up the Irregular at Magic High School, which was about a dude that was OP in everything he did. I was worried they might make a concession and give him a moment of weakness but they didn't, and he continued to dominate up until the end credits.
After that ended, I wanted to watch something new and started Sword Art Online II, which has guns instead of swords this time. Since the premise doesn't burn a hole in my skull, I find it much more tolerable than the first season since much of the harem-esque situations are firmly done with.
Today was a good day for football. I tuned in near the end of the Saint's game and watched Brees throw a pick. I turned it off in disgust, but when I noticed the game ended in a tie, I tuned back in and saw the Saints run the ball three straight times for a the game winning touchdown. Thank goodness. The Bengals defense almost lost my fantasy match up with their minus 8 points. Fortunately, my opponent's team was worse. Both the Saints and I barely won our games, but a win's a win.
I was supposed to watch Triangle today as part of my month-long horror marathon, but I ran out of time. I'm gonna have to double up tomorrow.
