I am still in night wear, does that count as naked?
does it count that my wife is preparing a milk bottle in only her underwear :-D


yesterday we visited Castle Braunfels

it is a very huge castle and beautiful castle with an awesome weapon and armor collection, the noble family, the Counts of Oppersfeld-Solms-Braunfels, are stll living there

the castle looks like a mediveal feary tale castle should look like - mostly because a Count in 19th century refurbished it to look like a mediveal feary tale castle :-)

No fallen Madonnas with the big boobies or British Bummers overhead either, I assume?

I need to watch more international tv.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Oh man, I still feel bad for the slow rate at which I've been writing.

But on the bright side, most of the things that held me back from such are gone.

I also managed to finally set up a blog for my writing, but I have no idea what to do with it.

HEY!!! Stop insulting Neanderthals! What did they ever do to you? Neanderthals are much nicer than those people.


And morning.

I had a dream that involved a group of people being somewhere that looked superficially normal but then we noticed that things are appearing out of nowhere (zeppelins forming out of clouds), hydras, cerberi-driven chariot, some more mundane vehicles, forming on the ground. There was argument if those are hallucinations/holograms, nano-fabricated real objects or creation of some weird biotech.

Then when we were going down a ladder some local guy caught us and demanded that he wants to experiment on us or he will make a call on cellphone of one of us when we will be passing hive of bee-like creatures. He was quite explicit that he want to check what we have inside...

Before waking up I recall somewhat unrelated image of a not-exactly-humanoid race that was noted to be "upgrade of elves" but it wasn't anything close to elves.


Family left after visiting for the weekend. I am now fully stocked on groceries and several meals' worth of leftovers from various restaurants. No cooking for me for a bit!

Scandalous, isn't it?

Metal whistle.


New Google Drive interface...

No major F-up. Yet.


But I think the new interface might be slowing down Google Drive on older computers and/or limited connection, the like of which I have suffered for the majority of this year.

Oh yah, I get the privacy for kids thing. Also, the name taunting. I still get very irate when people make fun of my name. However, most decent people are beyond simple name taunting, at least those with whom I would have any converse with. Anyone who proves me wrong gets edited out. Plus I adhere to the Tyrion Lannister school of thought:

"Let them see that their words can cut you and you’ll never be free of the mockery. If they want to give you a name take it make it your own. Then they can’t hurt you with it anymore.”

Maybe make a trial account with Oblivion as the name? IDK, just spitballing here.

Kennet Luke Skie Walker is my full name. Can you see for any reason why I don't use it often?

So, that blog I mentioned...

...it's still pretty empty, but I will try to update it sooner or later.


Bookmarked.


Appreciated. While I'll try and get that novel going for the most part, I might give a shot at getting a short story churned out before I get pulled away to do military service (actually alternative service but close enough), since that's only a few weeks away from now. I should probably mention the extended absence in a separate post somewhere down the line, in addition to other updates on my status. In other news, I finally got a Kingmaker session readied for next week's sunday, so cheers for that as well!

Could be worse. My dad used to work with two guys named Chuck Steak and Dick Sprinkell.

I have a new favorite butternut squash recipe.


2 more classes done.

Not sure how well done, though.

Probably rare, with my luck.

Time to sleep.

Only 4 more until my degree.


Kinda scary when I say that.

My mother wanted to name me Walter as a joke.


I don't get it.

I had a perverse thought once of naming a son Roderick. Then on lists he'd be Curtin, Rod.

Then I decided I would hate my father had he done that. So I decided it would be a bad thing


Morning...

*sigh* Of course I forgot to open window before going to sleep and woke up more dizzy than usual.

I hate some parents' kids, as well as some kids' parents.


So many campaigns to keep track of, so little time at times to do so.

But yeah, in random news, my bounty hunter got a pet dog in a GURPS campaign.


Also, Icy is being dragged off to do military service in three weeks.


ouch >_< For how long?

I just did some web searches on compulsory service in Finland. I did not know that was a thing there. How long will you have to serve?

Some of the submitted proposals to <redacted> for <redacted> were accepted... Not the ones I expected to be the most interesting, though...


I applied for Alternative Service, which takes almost a year. However, I figure it's the best choice for me after weighing my options.


How much contact will you be allowed with the outside world? With family? With the internet?


Well, the first few weeks I am away from home, and I am not sure if there is internet access at the service center. The rest of that time will be basically spent working at a library for below minimum wage amounts of money. While that does sound pretty bad, the good thing is that the government pays my rent for the time that I serve, so I won't end up on the street during said service time. However, since it's basically a job, I will be even more busy than I have been as of late, so not sure how much I'll be able to update things once I get dragged off.


I finally watched second season of Nuka Break. Want more :(


Second visit to the dentist today. Time to replace that filling - I hope it will solve the problems.

Obviously, I'm another vote against Facebook. Although that could change if something big and sweaty goes down.

I go by Patrick because 'Pat' can be abused highly. I have been called at several junctions Fat Pat, Patrica, Patty-cakes, et al banal.

Curtin of course lends itself to stupid jokes: 'hang around Curtin!', 'you're kinda shady Curtin', har de har har. The sad thing is that every one of the mouth breathers who comes up with a name like this thinks they are the wittiest Neanderthal to ever slouch out of the cave ....

O.o People mocking Pat? They wouldn't get far here. I know more Pat's (with derivatives) than I can count on both hands. :P

It falls under 'ethnic name' in the great ol' You Ess Ayyy. Thus, not all that common, even in Massachusetts, the Lost County of Ireland =P

Weird, plenty of them down in Texas where I grew up, and a fair few I've encountered here in TN/GA.
