That bites. Are your meds not doing the job? I'd be alarmed about the growing frequency of occurrences. :/Normally I would try to have something witty, but 4 seizures in 3 days kinda slows the brainnnnn a little. :PYes?My new doc has gotten it down to 2 things.
There is something mis-firing in my brain (making it INEDIBLE Zombie! Watching you.....) and it reacts violently to me being overstressed and tired. Which my work/life makes me. I have to put myself in a NyQuil coma to sleep otherwise I'm up all night. Sucks.
EDIT: Horrible, sad news for ToTP!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait......
Sounds possible. Benadryl + anti-epilectic is what you're doing right now, yes?

Anti-epilectic (oxycarbazine, spelling might be off) is the only seizure med I take. I don't really need the NyQuil, but my brain gets too active when I try to sleep. I've even tried to isolate myself before bed, no stimulation (no Urizen), read a book and relax.
Doesn't help. I'll wake up like 3 hours later and be up all night.

** spoiler omitted **In laws are good for that. I get to start driving home on Friday, so I get to dodge drunks and weather. At least I get to see friends in Albuquerque on the way home, and play Kingmaker on Sunday afternoon.Thanks. They leave tomorrow afternoon. They have pretty well overstayed their welcome.T minus 22 hours and counting...Good luck with the in laws!
Sounds like my Dad's parents...

New touch screen laptop greetings!
Whee!
Posting with it already?
Want see! Want see!
I'm already wondering if 120 gigs is enough space, but oh, an SSD is niiiice!
4 gigs of ram seems fine so far, but knowing I have the other slot ready for another dimm is nice. And the old HDD is now in the enclosure and operating nicely as an external drive.
Whopee!
I will have to play with it more...and get more HP @&*$@*$&# bloatware off.
I am also still at work. I've reset the membership provider in the open source .net blog software I"m working on to active directory, and I've managed to figure out how to only allow administrators and editors, rather than all users, to see the administration items.
I think my favorite part of the meeting today was when my boss waved his hand and said to Marketting "Oh yeah, Jess can do that! It's easy!"
...must...not...strangle...employer...

Should I be concerned or flattered that you find me stimulating?

Ah, Trileptal. Cool. Side effects can be funky, but here's hoping it picks up in the seizure surpression department. I suggest you check out benadryl for sleeping, it's what most of the people I know who have to deal with seizures or anxiety use to get some zzz's.

Yeah, I usually stop doing hits of Urizen around 8 if I want to get to sleep at all that night....
What? Why is everyone looking at me like that?

I think a very large portion of the population have this issue.

I'm gonna turn to the FAWtLies for some help:
I have 30060 GP left to spend on my archer and this is what I have
Frost Composite Longbow +3
Celestial Armor
+1 Handaxe
Belt of Incredible Dex +4
Greater Bracers of Archery
Cloak of Reistance +3
Ring of Protection +2Bag of Holding 1 with 5 Cure Serious, 10 Lesser Restoration, 10 Cure Moderate and 1 +5 Barkskin Potions.
20 Seeking Arrows
20 Shock ArrowsAny ideas?
Yeah get a bonus on your bow for a damage type. Thundering or something similar.
Yay for new laptop.

Ugh. Let me know if you need an alibi. I also have a shovel. :)

Do you already have the frost longbow, or just getting it? If the later, I imagine you'd get more mileage out of corrosive instead of frost.

Try to aim for the belt that boost all three physical stats if at all possible. Also, where is your melee weapon? You will be in melee combat eventually.

It's the +1 handaxe I took from your hoard. And I wanted to boost all 3, but then I wouldn't have my shiny bow...

That really bites, and I'm sure it's even more complicated than that. The running joke with my daughter and her kids is that it's her job to mess up her own kids now, and I mind my own business. ;) I joke of course; I think my daughter and son in law are very good parents, but it really sucks when it feels like your extended family is kind of working against you.
YURT!o_O
Come again?
yurts are full of awesome.
Just sayin'
Did you bring in a portable wood framed lattice structure to place around your workstation? Sounds like a makeshift fort. Like blankets, but better.
Mac I don't know if this would apply to you but my roommate's brother has a history of seizures and they finally tried VNS therapy. Just an idea that you can possibly look into.

What FRPGs have you played this year?
Let the Pathfinders be heard!
Put my vote in. And after 360 ballots, Pathfinder already has over 50% of the votes. Yeah!
Now off to play Risk: Godstorm

Here Mac. I am not a doctor or anything but i have seen it and just mentioning it as a possible remedy if your condition gets worse. Go to the link it explains it better than I ever could.
Back and shoulder ache - leftovers from shovelling snow.staggers through the thread in search of some ibuprofenPoints his scaly digit at the FAWLTy medicine cabinet.
Tooth ache, head ache, chest cold?
I feel your pain. It looks like I'll be seeing the dentist in the beginning of the New Year. Daddy Blue is going to have a tooth, or two, or three removed.

You might want to consider a small number of specialty arrows just in case.

Yep, cold iron or silver arrows, or weapon blanch of them (APG).

Actually, anything involving Thai, I'd have to defer to our resident professor. Once he returns from his holiday sabbatical, that is.
Didn't think of Cold Iron. Good Call.Yep, cold iron or silver arrows, or weapon blanch of them (APG).I have the bow. It's for a 1-shot.You might want to consider a small number of specialty arrows just in case.
The only time you need them you'll have forgotten to pack them. I wasn't too impressed with weapon blanch for melee weapons, but arrows (and bolts/shuriken) are essentially one shots anyway.

+3 counts as cold iron and silver.

Actually, as Mr. Franklin pointed out earlier to me, a +3 weapon counts as cold iron and silver for bypassing DR.
I didn't know either until a few hours ago. Weird, huh?
