    It's official, I will not have home internet access for an indeterminate amount of time after Novermber 6th! I'm sure I'll find plenty of opportunities to mooch wifi around town or after work, but I'm not likely to be online for extended periods. In the best case scenario, I'll get something set up within a couple days after the homeowner's return from the Mediterranean. In the worst case scenario, she'll decide she doesn't need internet anyway, and I'll just have to wait until I get settled in my new home in mid December.

    Nearing the end of the semester so I ought to be around less too. Will likely be on the forums more than IG, which, I guess isn't really new. Back to your regularly scheduled scrolling.

    Hey guys, I'm gone for the weekend - it's convention time starting now and I won't be back until Sunday evening (EST).

  •  Actual OOC rage masked as unreasonable IG demands and consequences (hello, let's mess up this quest that takes literally a day or more to finish) directed at me is really not good for my mental stability, so I will be taking a break from Lusternia again for an indefinite amount of time (hopefully short, but it would depend on how I feel after a good night's rest -- been up more than 24 hours straight now, heh heh).

    In case I don't come back in time, happy holidays! Thank you very much to @Talan, @Chirbo, @Synkarin, @Malarious, and the Gaudiguch crowd for a wonderfully crazy time.

  • What part of "kill Ethilwen, crown Thoril" is unreasonable and OOC ragey? Why do you get to decide that the person on the other side of the screen is OOC raging?

    Lol Eodh, take as much time as you need, you poor innocent flower

    Sleep is important! In my experience everything feels much worse than it actually is when you're sleep-deprived. Hopefully you wake up in the morning and things are calmer than they seem right now.  :x

    Swear words and long, novel-like tells are a good indication, I've found. Plus demands to get kills on absolutely everyone I came in contact with. "Kill Ethilwen, crown Thoril" were not the only demands of Davos, in case he's saying that's the only thing he asked for.

    EDIT: how to fix quotes? forums why

  • I have some things to sort out. I'll be back by the end of this referendum. Hopefully with less of a bleak, embarrassed outlook.
    The apple is cold, crisp, and sour as the juices fill your mouth. As you consume the fruit, you glimpse, for a moment, a massive, shadowy figure, Her snow-white hair framing a perfect, icy-eyed visage. Beneath you, a vast, perfect web of silken strands lies - and, for a moment, you realize that you too are part of it, weaver and strand both - and home.
  • CyndarinCyndarin used Flamethrower! It was super effective.
    Working a lot. Holiday time. Plus Fallout 4 is so addicting.

    Be back when I'm back.

    Now I feel bad for being mad that Drocilla hasn't gotten back to me ICly to discuss patron things. :(

  • Stuff happened, and I'm upset. The disaffectedness is making it hard to give a damn about Lusternia right now. I've been able to overcome similar before, and keep playing, but I don't feel up to it this time. So, I'm gonna take a break for a while, probably a week or two, see if I can get some fresh perspective.

    If for some bizarre reason anyone needs me, I'll still be checking my messages, so I can be reached that way.

    The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure pure reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!

    I'm making this official, I've just had way too much going on to Lusternia. I love you guys, but I'm spread too thin and can't afford to burn out at work.

    @eritheyl catch me on skype sometime and I'll refund the commission.

    Guuuuuh. The people who will be living in this house after I move out aren't willing to pay for internet services at the rates we can get here (and rightly so, since they don't use it nearly as much as I do).

    But that means I'm still going to be a rare presence until I'm moved in and set up at my new home in December. :-<
    I used to make cakes.

  • Surgery tomorrow. If I am back it should be by Tuesday, if not, it was fun. That said, fairly low risk surgery.

    I was eventually given a refund on the charger that shorted, bought a new one, and had it flop within a day. 

    Stay tuned as the battle of woman versus laptop charger continues.

  • My computer died last night, I go on holidays in a week and then it's Christmas. Doubt I will be back on lusty until the New Years. Hope everyone has a great holiday period!!
