I managed to avoid the pub! \o/ I'd been feeling pretty crappy all week, so pretty much used that as an excuse.

It's not so much that I would have minded the people I was with (though there were a lot of us), but it would have been Friday Night In Town, and even at 5pm, there would have been people on the piss already, so it wouldn't have been a great experience.

I started playing FFVII again the other night. Currently, I am in the train graveyard. I got there in around two hours, which doesn't seem that long? I always think the whole bit with Wall Market is later on, but it's not.

I don't remember when it was, but the last time I played, I was naming everyone Sephiroth (for the lulz), and I only got two hours in before I abandoned it completely. SIGHS. (a quick search of my twitter says it was September 2015, but I have no memory of doing it; I just know I did. I also have no idea why I abandoned it, either. Presumably I just got bored).

Anyway, I'm enjoying it, because the music! The graphics! (I love low poly PSX renders in p much the same way I love pixels). Also there's a whole lot of nostalgia here. This was my first FF game, and my first RPG. And it got me through part of a year where I was absolutely crippled with depression. I maybe don't feel quite so enthusiastic about it as I once was, but I still do love it a heap.

I'm currently listening to a medley of tracks from the FF games, and I totally would not have picked Searching for Friends for VI, but what do I know? (I'd have gone with Terra's Theme).

(I need to make a list of music I've linked to on twitter again. I feel like I haven't done one of those for a while).

I don't have anything else to say, so I'm going to awkwardly end this entry here.
