There's a reason I chose not to save stalker-boy. His boundary issues go well past annoying. Maybe he's less creepy if you're playing a male Shepherd, but I spent the first game wanting to slap him during every conversation.

Nope. Either way, he says pretty much the same stuff in the third game. To me it seemed less like boundary issues than a total inability to pick up on social cues.
It also occurs to me that I'm talking about fictional characters like they're real people. I should probably do something about that...

Same here, well not so much the rain..... yet.....
But tonight is the usual gaming, after last weeks lack of Feng Shui hopefully this week will be different. And I'll probably end up going somewhere random for a meal beforehand.
EDIT: Cool friend texted me & we're meeting for pizza, hopefully they won't be a picky as last weeks restaurant.

Cool stuff, hope you enjoy the game. :) Thursday night gaming night here too, though GM has been having a busy week, so there's a little ? over whether the game will be going ahead. Will probably hit up some Payday if it's not though, and that's also awesome, so still a win.

Grumble-grumble.
Mother's surgery was moved. She won't be able to fly for at least two months afterwards and go to Poland to grab her new ID and the old one expires in December... Which means that she needs to go now. And by now I mean be there and back in the next three weeks.
Duh. I hate looking for planes and buses...
Also, the prices in such short time. Argh.
It also means that with mother going to Poland she could pay some bills, which would make me stay here in England a little bit longer... Thankfully I have bought my plane ticket anyway. Well, some more money for staying and working longer could be useful but my sanity well being is reason enough to go back soon.

...except for that one time when the library staff was asking for a variety of people to film book reviews for the blog and wanted a student involved in addition to the professors and faculty they had lined up...
...aaaaaand that while everyone else in on this review series was choosing meaningful classic books and socially significant commentaries, I'm blathering on about "I THINK SCIENCE FICTION IS COOL."
By this point, I am various shades of pink and facepalming to the point my glasses have all but left my head, and the coach is laughing.
heehee....
i would have hired you on the spot.
I only did the stupid review because they let me do it while I was on the clock and therefore didn't have to shelf-read and because being an academic library, they were rather short on fun books, and I was told they'd order a copy of whatever books we reviewed.

Came home today and discovered much to my chagrin that wheat is no longer good for you...at least according to my wife and Dr.Oz
Nothing stays good for you for long, it seems. I hear milk is actually bad for your bones these days! I just ignore the lot and eat what I like these days. Easier than trying to keep up with the latest 180's.

Weather is not conducive to outdoor adventures, but we got by fine last time the weather was poorly, this time will be fine too. I look forward to the end of day, and a weekend of singing along to cartoons, counting blocks, and general mini-merriment. :)
