I am over halfway through my second sock! I have surprised myself.
I'm slightly over my self-set deadline for my current commission - but that's down to being laid up in bed with stomach cramps for four days running last week. The actual deadline is the end of the month but, as the customer wants to post the item onto its recipient, I thought it might be nice if she got it early so that it would get there for the intended time. I'm only a day over right now, and almost finished, so it's not too bad. Just annoying, really.

In other news, I finished Mass Effect 3 on Sunday. I cried, although not as much as I was expecting (I mean, I was outright sobbing by the time the credits finished, but I thought I've have been in floods by the time Shepard got where she was going, so to speak).
Also: listening to Vigil will actually make me lose my shit all over the place ;_;
My EMS before finishing was around 2535, and I played the original ending. I haven't been able to make my Xbox connect to the internet yet so I can download the Extended Cut. Thusly, I was lead to believe I'd got a rubbish score, and would have a horrible ending.
Well, I chose Destroy, and yeah, the relays exploded and, granted, I did think I'd killed my crew, but I got a flipping good ending in that not only did Joker survive (does that always happen?), but so did Kaidan, and Garrus (I started absolutely sobbing when he got out of the crashed Normandy).
I'm not happy with that choice, to be honest. I wanted to go with Synthesis, but my EMS wasn't high enough to achieve that (which I didn't know! I didn't realise that not all choices were available at lower levels. Obviously, I know that now). But thinking about it, Destroy was where Nev would've gone with that, so I'm happy. Thinking Zoe will go with Control, though. Ras actually might be enough of a cock to not do anything and let the Reapers come back in another 50,000 years (mind you, Ras' EMS will probably be in his boots, so everything will go horribly wrong ANYWAY. Which is what I anticipated, and I've been waiting for since I thought of him. He deserves for everything to go wrong. He's a huge dick).
Um. I should've written this on Sunday night. I didn't like London, because I was a bundle of nerves, and REAPER DESTROYER. Also ew dead people on the Citadel. EW. (Event Horizon flashbacks. EW). And I accidentally got Anderson killed ;_; and I didn't manage to make the Illusive Man kill himself, as I forgot I hardcore persuaded him on Mars, and used the non-persuade options on every following conversation with him. UGH.
And, really, I think that's all I have to say about that for now. More when I've played the Extended Cut, I guess!
And now I'm playing Awakening again. I've met Velanna, and I'm just about to acquire Sigrun. I am muddling my way through this the same way I muddled through Origins. Which is to say, badly. I've upset Anders more times than I can count, and managed to piss off practically everyone in Amaranthine.
Well, I guess my warden is Orlesian, so...(That's no excuse, right? The dialogue options often trip me up, though. That's the problem).
Oh, and: every time Nathaniel opens a chest for me (since he's my only rogue) and says, "Does this please you?" and I'm all, "OH NATE. You simply EXISTING is enough to please me." Sadly I can't actually tell him that *sigh*
