Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
My husband and I are now the kind of people who go to conventions. We have reached that level of nerddom. We have achieved a new geeky status by attending our very first gaming convention. We are now those people. This year we drove three hours to attend Origins Game Fair in Columbus, Ohio and […]
Hi, guys! I don’t know that I’m going to get this up in the morning, since I slept in much later than normal. In my defense, it’s been a very long weekend. It was Tekko weekend! Tekko is an anime convention that happens annually in Pittsburgh and for the past three years now, my brother […]
Good morning, friends. I felt bad about not writing yesterday so I’m writing this morning to make up for it. I didn’t write yesterday because my husband had to call the doctor and go in at 11 and I wanted to hang with him instead of writing, so that’s what I did. He’s fine, by […]
For my birthday this year my husband got me a 3DS XL. It’s shiny and new and came with a gift card to buy some games so I could actually use the system. Naturally I went straight for Harvest Moon and, having some left over, took a look at the Pokemon selection. Originally, Logan had […]
My husband has qualified us as “the nerds that other nerds pick on.” Why, you may ask? Because we listen to other people play table top role playing games for entertainment. I am perfectly okay with being that nerd. A few months ago Logan discovered the podcast One Shot and we’ve been listening to the […]
When I was in high school I discovered anime. Once I did that it was all over. You start with the English dub and move into subtitled Japanese shows and once you’re good at keeping up with the subs it’s all down hill from there. I was a big anime geek, and I always wanted […]
A show of hand for who all saw this one coming? Yes, this has all been leading up to Stardew Valley, the game I’ve been playing every chance I get for the past two weeks or so. It started with a friend, as it always does, texting me to ask if I’d heard of it and […]
Much like Harvest Moon I greatly enjoyed the spin-off Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon. It basically combined two of my favorite things: Fantasy and Harvest Moon. My friend Courtney found this one and, considering getting it herself, asked if I would check it out first. Emulator in hand, I played through the third game in like a […]
Confession: I have a Harvest Moon problem. Not currently, actually, well, not technically, but if I were to get started playing it, I probably would have a problem again. Did any of that make sense? Okay, story time. When I was in high school I had these two friends, Jac and Josiah, and they were […]
Greetings dear friends! It is the final day of 2015 and even though it’s a Thursday, I’m making a special exception because it seems wrong somehow to post a review of this year next year, you know? So I started this tradition back on my first blog, Down the Rabbit Hole, and have continued it […]
