Good morning FAWTLY Folk!! Happy Saturday!!!
Sadly, not sure if I'll get around to bottling beer today. Didn't get stuff done last night that I needed to do. It's all good though. I'll get it done soon enough.
At some point today, gonna bring the boy to get his hairs cut. He needs it.
Speaking of needs a haircut......
And I finally remembered why I needed to go to Lowes.

My MP3 player has been giving me trouble since yesterday. It appears to have bitten the dust last night - I can't get it to turn on.
Philips GoGear ViBE 8GB. Four years of near-constant use. Almost zero problems with it right up until the end: the last 48 hours have been a constant digression of "freezes during startup", "burns through battery far too quickly" (full to zero in around 4 hours, when it used to last a day or two and have juice to spare), "fails to connect with computer", and now "won't start".
I purchased a new one, a 16GB iPod made far cheaper than normal thanks to being bought refurbished, but it won't get to my Walmart to be picked up for another few days.
Weird - the young girl who voices the title character on Disney's Sophia the First also voiced Carrie Kelly/Robin in the Dark Knight Returns animated movie.
What verb is used in English to describe visible movement of air over a hot surface? Shiver? Wave? Some other verb?
"And air around <waves> as if from/of great heat"
Tick Tock the crocodile. He wants to stay and play awhile.
Wave or warp is pretty common. Ripple is too. Shimmer (rather than shiver) occasionally, though that's usually more associated with a glow or some other kind of light radiance.
Off to breakfast. Later folks.
Ahh! Shimmer! That was what I was trying to recall! Thank you Orthos.

Hmm. Is the brunch 'au naturel' or is it the kingmaker game?
Going off for friends birthday.
Managed to get the MP3 player working so I'll have it for the next few days while I wait for the new one to come in.
I officially heal ridiculously fast.

Since there's no D&D session this week (one of the players is in an anime convention this weekend), I can plan some more stuff for the area currently called the Greenbelt Barony. Right now I'm seeing a sort of a Knights of the Round Table / Rainbow Guard from Song of Ice and Fire thing going on in my Kingmaker forming in their capital of Stagshelm. I just realized I need to add more knights to the fray.
So far we have...
- Wilda Roché the Golden Knight. She is also the Ruler of the Greenbelt Barony.
- Renauld Cloutier the Silver Knight. Formerly a squire, he is now Wilda's bodyguard.
- Kesten Garess the Steel Knight. He also serves as the General of the Greenbelt Barony.
- Akiros Ismort the Green Knight. He was chosen to be the Warden of the Greenbelt Barony.
...one of the ideas I got was to have the next knight be a Dwarf named Gerald Raske. Since the nation seems to have a mix of Pitaxian, Mivonese, Galtan (thanks to Wilda) and Alkenstari (thanks to Kiriv) people as well as the heavy Brevic influence in it, I'm pretty sure they can't be limited to only humans. Also, if things go about in a certain way with regards to Oruda and some other hobgoblins, there might even be some folk from Kaoling moving in to the Greenbelt area.

I adore my new puppy, sometimes. He shreaded several NPCs i left on the floor. They never got a chance to roll their reflex saves.
Pathfinder Society and board games today. Should be doing homework, oh well! *zoom*

What was suppose to be a 2 hour pop into work turned out to be 6 hours. Grrrrr!
On a brighter note, Shattered Star with Wolfthulhu tonight.
Huzzah! I have successfully co-opted my wife's Kindle Fire for gaming! Bought the PF RPG SRD App for it. Not as easy to use as the version I've got on my iphone, but it'll do.

I don't think I could get Hero Lab on the Fire, but I can at least load PDFs onto it. So I can at least have my characters on there.

...why did I imagine an Orc Knight?
Dunno. Maybe you remember me talking about Yorgo Wormsbane. He was my half-orc Fighter/Cleric of Kord in Age of Worms. Not exactly a knight, but he did wear heavy armor and fight with a great sword!
To tell the truth, of all the non-human races, I prefer to play either an elf or a dwarf. Although I am currently experimenting with a Halfling sorcerer in a game we run for my seven year old nephew.
THE POWER OF KORD COMPELS YOU!!!
I really should make a new alias of that character.
Kord is/was an awesome deity.
Ebon played a Kordite Barbarian in my first Savage Tide game. Dunno if she'll be playing her again for the second try.

I think I caught the flu. I feel a fever starting: chills, body ache, sore throat, and I think there are kobolds trying to dig a tunnel out of my skull. I did not need this.
I had this Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Coworkers have too, and evidently many who helped the first FAWTL family move into Houston did as well. It seems to last three days or so.
It was like the weirdest combination of nastiest cold ever and the flu, only without nausea. In point of fact, while I slept 18 hours on Monday, whenever I wasn't sleeping, all I could think about was food. O.o That sounds a lot like what I had!
Only now that it is wearing off, my appetite is kind of meh. No nausea, just a weak appetite.
But on Thursday (when I made my post)... yeah... I wanted food.
Interesting.
Probably spread through the interwebs.
Anyhow, thank you for the well-wishes, all. I have some crud in my throat/chest, but otherwise am feeling significantly better.
Friday I dragged my butt into work anyway, since I had too much to do. Wouldn't you know that is the morning where I was trapped on the subway for an hour and a half. A train ahead of us lost power, and my train was stopped in a tunnel for 90 minutes. At least the AC was running :-/
Excellent. Now get on those pbps!

I do think there is some weirdo necromancer out there keeping slices (or in your case, huge hunks) of leg to create the world's tallest undead to reach tall shelves for him or something. Likewise I was supposed to be about 5 inches taller.
But then I had unrestricted access to caffeine throughout my childhood, which could not have helped...

And I am sorry to hear of your loss Treppa.
A few days ago, I found out a woman I sang several operas with upstate passed away. She was 75 and apparently it was a long battle with cancer. I hadn't seen her in a few years, but you like to think back that everyone is as they were the last time you saw them.
