Well, I've finally finished going through the whole thing, and have come to the conclusion that you are all seriously twisted individuals.

Naturally, I approve.

And the background is up. I'd ask that you check it over to be sure it fits.

Yeah. Mothman's Greg, I'm Henry, you're Chuck, Chris is Anthony, Sean is Dez, and Blackotter is Kira. Totally.

Hey good news; I figured out two additional ways to smoothly work you in, so we should have you playing in no time.

Hurting too bad atm to sit for a while and type. Will try again tonight if possible, if not, will set up the lappy and do it that way.

Hey man, rest up, get well.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Back to work today. Hurts like a bugger, but I’m up and around and will be updating shortly.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Wanted to drop a line to let you know I hadn’t forgotten; I had to make an unplanned run to Saginaw without the lappy, so I have limited access. Next update should be roughly 0400E tomorrow morning.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Just checking to see if you are still watching, Chris. I think I can work you into the next room over.


Beware, I live. I hunger.

I should probably do something about the latter. *wanders off to cook food*


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Cool deal, thanks (food good).


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Had a good visit at the oncologists today, but it was long. Beat atm, so I am going to hit the sack a little early in hopes I can update first thing tonight.

It has been a while due to time delays on my part, so I thought I'd take advantage of this nice slow Sunday and update everyone on the current xp totals:

Ardan: 1680
Eldin: 2575
Marius: 1050
Seann: 2575
Terin: 2615
Tyndal: 2550

Something is up with Mr. Shiny.
Adios
He has me worried for him.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Passed out today at one from lack of sleep before I could get things rolling. Just as well, was having trouble putting two thoughts together. Once I get my crap in gear tonight I’ll drop in an update or three.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Back again, sorry about the hiatus. Wife and Son are 90% better now, and I still haven’t picked the bug up from either of them (crossing my fingers).


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Arg. Ok, so I was mistaken. Already almost 3:30 and I need sleep. Will try again tonight from work.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Figured I would wait until the memory of your Florida trip was behind you and you were in a better mood before I asked, Fakey. How are things going with your son?

Sorry haven't checked the discussion thread for a bit.....been sick for almost a month....

The boy is OK. Some days are sunshine and flowers and hope and others are fits, and fighting and depressing. I am confident in the knowledge that I am doing as much as possible to help him and get him what he needs to be the best autistic boy he can be, but it is hard not being able to just 'fix' him. He repeats lines from cartoons word for word and uses them in context (mostly), but I can't get him to tell me what is wrong when he is upset or hurt. Some days it's good and others just suck.
Sorry to sound so depressing but the last couple days have been sucky for him. He gets back into his program on Tuesday so I hope that the routine of that schedule helps him to get back on an even keel.
Oh well.
He is mostly happy and healthy and for that I am blessed. I see so many people around going through far worse, and I feel a bit guilty about my problems having such an effect on me. 'Man up, Fakey, your kid could be like this!' is always running through my head, especially when I see how bad some of the kids in his program have it.
On a good note my wife and I finally got our contributions inline and adjusted to go towards the Delaware Autism Program and some other similar organizations, and I had a good, fun father's day so all is good.
I know you have been going through it in different ways but you'll understand when I say "Life is relentless", you get some breaks here and there but it never stops coming at you. I would just love to have a month off from it all.

I like that; I mentioned it to Marcy on the way to the hospital this morning to pick up her scans for the neurologist tomorrow. I usually live by "life is all about regrets" (which my wife hates when I say).

In-laws really did a number on you, cripes. No need to tell yourself to nut-up, all bets are off when it comes to your kid. I run with the "it's ok to cry if you are caught in a bear trap" mentality, but man, shew, sons, I mean, c'mon, who wouldn't turn into a wet rag? Sounds like an uphill battle, just yell if you ever need a push from behind.

Had my eyes dilated at the ophthalmologist first thing this morning, couldn’t focus, but back now. Yar!

Work has been more work-like than anticipated or appreciated last few days. Looks slower tonight, so I will update both games.

No problem.

Just like to keep everyone in the loop. :)


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Was offline last night while they reset the whole of our network traffic to flow through the corporate Gestapo division. Will have to get creative tonight in order to get unrestricted access, but will give it a go.

Today is going to be interesting too trying to find time, as I have to go in early (yet again) for month end, but not giving up hope just yet.

Please pardon my absence. I’d explain now, but the explanation will be boring. [I will] Be back this evening without fail.

No worries. Hope all is well.

Minor problem, here’s the deal (posting to each discussion thread):

Since the network switchover at work, I’m cut off, and my time to update at home is sporadic and limited. It’s not so much no access as remote division attempting to justify its existence by routing our connection through their gear and then monitoring the bejesus out of it. I’ve tried a few things on a tentative basis, and I know port 443 is open (tested it with the camera from home), but either 3389 is out or the RDC protocol is ruled out (still testing, but I can’t hit my box at home so far; slow going as I have to test one thing a day, and if it doesn’t work, I have to wait 24 hours to try again). I used to be able to at least use Google messenger if I went around the policy by renaming the program identifier as notepad, but secure outside connections are now cut off as well (though the java client works, trying to limit my usage). I have an awesome idea that would fix this issue and a good many more, but I am still trying to justify the cost internally (extra $60 a month, maybe less if they’ll work with me).

In the mean time, here’s what I plan to do: Every evening before work, I’m going to snap up the RSS feeds and offload it to a pen drive. I’ll do the game update at work, then post it as soon as I get home. This will leave me a day behind, but at least you will get an update on a regular basis. I’ve already loaded everyone’s character profile and the game for today, so I’ll type up the next sequence this evening. Sorry for the pain in the butt!


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Spent the last three or four days non-stop plastering, sanding, painting on primer, and cleaning up. Lost track of time, sorry about that! Have the current game on flash drive, will update it at work tonight, and post in the a.m. first thing.

Always something. Was busy today too: fixed the gate, caught a mole (moleyosis) and released him in the park, housework, bunch of other stuff it was way too hot to do. :) This weekend I was un-crapifying one of the main living room walls though. What a nightmare, the things they did before we moved in, hah! Doesn't look too shabby now, and I got a little artsy and sealed a porcelain rabbit inside two sealed together fish tanks and put there where the giant ugly wall AC unit was sucking up space.


Male Humanoid Expert 2 / Magewright 1

Update will be a bit later today, have to pack up the fam. and drive an hour to meet the extended fam. for lunch.

Hola.

Thanks to two weekends of headaches (including four in the last five days), I’m officially in hell. I can only assume it is the hormones, but I am popping anti-migraine pills like jellybeans last few days. I hope to have things sorted out following my Sept. 4th appointment (or shortly thereafter). At the moment, I have all the creativity and brain power of soggy cardboard. I hate to do this to you guys, but would it be possible to take a three-week hiatus and resume Monday, September 8th? I hate to put a hold on things mid-stream, but I’m not doing anyone any favors by limping along, either.
