It's pretty outside. Too warm for my taste, and it makes me sneeze, but it looks pretty. All the tulips and daffodils are in bloom and the trees are all blossoming. (Yes, I know, spring arrived earlier in other parts of the country, but I live in Michigan...we have less warm season...I think this is a good thing.)
And now that I'm done with classes I'm actually noticing stuff that isn't textbooks. ^.^

I hope everyone is doing well.
I had to bolt from my project in AZ because Dad is in ICU. Hopefully he will be upgraded soon, but he is looking at a long hard recovery at best.
Take care all!
Dad went in to get some fluid drained for early congestive heart failure, and blew out an ulcer nobody knew he had. It's lucky he was in the hospital, but He was minutes away from dying.
I'm trying to work the problems with my sister.
We are both exhausted.
I"m sorry to hear this, BT. Take care!

It will be Fawesome if this comes together. I talked to the bosses again today, and so far they seem down with me conducting the business I need to in Houston on Monday June 9. If that holds up, I will plan to fly down on Saturday the 7th to hang out.

There's a lot of firearms in Texas.

Spoilered for personal drama / angry frustration / wall of text:
Case 1: Two weeks ago, after a Pathfinder game, our GM called me on the phone in order to cuss me out for an hour about how I was trying to "undermine his authority as a gamemaster" by following the rules (the incident in question involved him telling me that he felt the need to deliberately change the rules at random because I was a more experienced player than him and he wanted to throw me off balance. because that's fun, apparently). I told him he was being paranoid, after which he told me he didn't want me to be a part of the group anymore.
Case 2: My best friend of over a decade decided that since a woman he has had an unrequited interest in for a few years wants to talk to me instead of him, I shouldn't be allowed to talk to her because it would be "unfair." Bear in mind, this is a 25-year-old grown-ass man we're talking about, not a high school kid. He was pretty hammered when we had our "discussion" (I'd had one drink), and took the opportunity to fly into a screaming rage and take a swing at me. We were three days into a road trip, and I ended up having to spend $100 on a train ticket home. He called me a couple days later to apologize (sort of), but given the fact that he'd react to something so minor with such childish anger makes me wonder if I still want to be friends with the guy.
So, I lost one friend over Pathfinder, and another over a girl that neither of us was dating. I'll never understand humans. Half the time I feel like an anthropologist on an alien planet.

Good morning FAWTLY Folk! Happy Saturday! I hope all is well with y'all. It's looking to be a beautiful day here, if only a little warm. Busy day ahead. Gonna hit the grocery store early, then meet my brother and nephew for the boy's birthday viewing of Captain America. Then afterward it's a family crawfish boil. Huzzah!

I continue to be impressed by Marvel's new Moon Knight. Three issues. Three single, self-contained stories. Sadly, that's become old school in the comics industry. These days it's all about multi-issue stories so they can put them into a trade paperback.
Sad. But I also think it's because there are a lot of comic book writers who just might not have the talent to write single issue stories.

I could't get to my page either through the bookmark. I had to go to deviantart.com to get to my page...

I'm sure it's like other kinds of writers: some can rock the short story format, others need a twelve-novel behemoth to tell their tale
I am very much in the latter. I have a lot of trouble with short, self-contained stories - if I make the world big enough to set a respectable story in with all sufficient flavor and setting and surroundings, I inevitably lay too many crumbs for future plots and events that I'm driven to expand on to leave it be.

I got it to load finally, not sure what went wrong.

Woke up to my little princess clawing at my face. It would be cute, if her nails weren't so damned sharp.
At least she doesn't have the coordination to do two claw attacks......yet.
Think what she could do if she had rend!
Clawed zombieling?
*makes notes*
Actually it would resemble my idea for dreadling if I would picked a route I didn't choose (undead halfling instead of monstrous humanoid)...

Glad to see you back on the monster-making scene =) I need to get back to working on my own blog soonish, once I'm caught up on other things.
Do you still take requests/suggestions for FFs or are you good up on inspirations for now?
Thanks and I look forward to seeing your blogposts!
I'm always open for requests, so fire away. :)
