Finally saw all of season 2 of True Blood. The nightmares I had last night were totally worth it!
Trying to move up the weekly game to Tuesdays tonight- Here's hoping this becomes a regular thing because I think it might work better with my schedule than Thursdays, that, while a beloved tradition, turned me into a zombie on the day that I started the second job.
In terms of Freehold stuff, methinks I am finally done with the optional stuff for the fightan man. I'll post a link later, and as usual I run on the opinions of others, so be sure to e-mail me/post your thoughts.
I love maenads too, but I think it could have been done better. They went waaaaaaaaaaay too far in the pseudo-secret devil worshipper direction for me. I would have greatly preferred a more gradual slide into near-meaningless chaos than the (un)subtle "if it feels good, it's bad" trope.

We're in the burbs just north of St. Louis. It's actually only 93* right now, but the heat index is 105*. Blasted humidity!
Ah. I'm in Arizona (can't say AZ as that would invite bad jokes) and have the exact opposite problem, it actually is ~110* out here ;P I do feel for you, I grew up in coastal Texas where the humidity was nearly as bad.

Thank you all for the well wishes on the house. It is truly wonderful to be at this point in my life. I know I will be cursing it later, but I am rather enjoying the warm, fuzzy feeling for the moment. :)
To answer some of the other questions, fortunately no dishes or pieces of the house were harmed in the process of "making it feel like home."
HOUSE PAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

This is going to be a rough week.
Seriously, I haven't felt this bad about rejection probably since 7th grade. f#*@.
If you were closer I'd buy you a drink. I truly, truly, truly, truly, truly, truly, truly hate the friend zone because of the increased importance women put on the term and position in life as opposed to men.

But you have hooked up the washer and dryer, right?

Know that feeling. It would certainly explain the near-constant construction going on in Phoenix.

I've been trying to get a hold of the people I'm going to be staying with for the next week and a half, and they aren't answering their phone. I'm checked out of my room, so all I can do is sit around in the hotel lobby and wait for them to discover the voicemail messages I left. f@%&ing great.
Suck! At least you found somewhere to get internet. :/

We missed you guys though! Hoping that more of us can be there next year! Enough to take up two or three tables at the banquet! I will post our pics tonight or tomorrow. :)

Sorry about that, Shiny.
I'm two people down at my house, as my daughter went back to spend her mom's b-day with her and my wife's cousin went back to DC.
HD the friend box can be escaped from, but damn, it can take a long time. And perhaps booze. And other women. Wait, does she yet know you can be a jerk? ;)
So, how obnoxious are we permitted to be over this engagement thing?

I guess I just needed to gripe. They just called me about a minute ago, and I'm headed out. No worries.

Again, same thing happened to me once. I felt like a dope as the people were legitimately stuck in traffic and these were the days before cell phones were commonplace. I ALMOST got away with sneaking into their bedroom and deleting my hysterical voicemail messages....almost. Ah, awkward memories.

Don't you use different words as well?
Yes, but those are our favorites, just because you're being dirty doesn't mean you have to be crude. ;)

O.o
Well, guys, I had just scanned and talked to the folks who posted something in the last hours. Honest. You two are aces, I meant no disrespect by leaving you out of my early-morning greeting (or any other FAWTLiers for that matter).
*sigh*
I gotta leave my greetings more general ...
*blink*
