<p>Standing up is actually more comfortable than lying on the couch.
<br />
But typing while hunched over like this is worse than my usual bad posture! ;P </p>
<p>And My body is reminding me to take it easy. Emphatically.
<br />
So you get out of dealing with my toons' novella-length posts!

<br />
Sorry, forgot to mention in my PbP's that I was going in for another surgery Wednesday. It was to resolve issue #1 of my Prostate cancer removal. (I've 0only been waiting a year and a friggin' half! >_<</p>
<p>It,... Did NOT go as planned. :(</p>
<p>Halfway through they ran into an 'issue' and they had to do a repair of a tear. This meant they had to cancel the planned procedure, as the install of the implant would have interfered with the healing of what they just fixed. </p>
<p>I am fine. i am at home. And I am,... perturbed, at the turn it took. ;P
<br />
This means I have to go through all of the healing time I planned for, but with none of the expected benefits. ;P </p>
<p>And in another 2-3 months, I can revisit trying again. </p>
<p>In short, because I literally cannot sit up due to incision location, I will be noticeably absent for a few days, until I can actually sit on my chair.
<br />
I will type entries standing up (like I am now!) when I have the time and ability to do so.</p>
<p>Apologies for forgetting to provide early warning.
<br />
Feel free to bot my toons. (And play them smarter than I do!) ;P </p>
<p>See you as soon as possible!</p>Hey there,

This is what I see using the main initiative tracker as the baseline:</p>
<p>RD 1: Jakun had headed out to the tunnel, and went to check the door
<br />
RD 2 Jakun is first sneak attacked then the first round of attacks
<br />
RD 3: Jakun’s attack on extra guy</p>
<p>So, IF Anyone wants to go towards Jakun’s position, this is where they’ll be at by round. I know the timeline is bumpy, but I didn’t think this opportunity would have happened like it did.</p>So, I had had Jakun out of melee, but now we will have to sinter everything together.
