Scint has this problem. She says she gets around it by watching my cats from the safety of the other side of Skype.

Oh shiznit. I actually got a job interview, and now I'm hella nervous because I haven't done one in forever and having this job would improve my quality of life so much.

I dread interviewing people for jobs, probably as much as most folks do not like interviewing.

Keep that in mind as you go in, the person doing the interviewing is likely as uncomfortable as you.

Despite my lateness the session was a success...

Paladin ended having a sex with three ladies of negotiable affection, partly sponsored by our malicious gnome rogue... And ended with the ladies explicitly demanding that I, being a con man with contacts in the local underworld and thus acquaintance to them, bring the paladin to them again. Let's say the paladin has high Constitution and even higher Charisma.

Then the things get sour for paladin when he discovered after few days that he has problems sitting in the saddle and has a strange rash. He had to stop in the middle of the day to lay hands on oneself. To remove the rash.

Then we reached our destination and saved the baron's daughter with the curse-removing statuette that we stole on the last session from a magician in the city... Because the baron's servants got themselves killed by bragging about the gold they had for the purchase.

During the drinking binge with the baron the gnome convinced the baron that the paladin likes boys... Which isn't exactly popular orientation in the local kingdom. When the paladin learned about that he slapped the gnome accidentally dislocating the gnome's jaw - who was too drunk at that time to notice. In the morning however... Ouch. When the rest of the party (me and bard) discovered the state the gnome was, we had to take him to the surgeon in the baron's barracks, well, order the paladin to take the gnome there despite the paladin's objections and have the gnome's jaw set. Then the paladin discovered that can't lay hands on the gnome... This directed the paladin to a moment of self reflection, combined with me following the paladin, sitting in front of him and looking on him meaningfully... Then the gnome healed by the bard returned and the paladin apologized profoundly and genuinely.

My kind of paladin.

Actually the paladin was drunk (he was convinced to drink beer as not-an-alcohol for the first time in his life, up until that point he was drinking water or milk) and ogling the ladies-of-negotiable-affection dancing who first wanted to pick pocket him, until the gnome told them that the paladin is with our shady group (rogue, me warlock and con-man, and the bard), when they instead of drugging him and stealing his pouch went instead of offering their services - and the gnome sealed the deal by paying them extra to "show the paladin their skills".

Bard wanted to buy the vial of that drug from the ladies - leading us to joke that she does not need the drug to get the paladin to bed (they are flirting quite often and she loves to tease him, he teases her in his own way - by shirtless training in the mornings).

Drejk, did your paladin not have immunity to disease yet? I mean seriously, what good is being a paladin if you can't tumble with every streetwalker and hustler from here to Magnimar without consequence?

An Excerpt from an EVE player's story wrote:

I was approached by one of the leaders of Red Alliance to help [destroy this ship], but almost immediately we were down the rabbit hole. Much to my surprise, the RA director didn’t want in-game information from me; he wanted us to use the forensic resources of our intelligence agency to trace down The Enslaver’s home address. At a coordinated time, armed with this information, a RA member would apparently cut the power to The Enslaver’s house in the real world, and in EVE a RA capital fleet would assault the abruptly pilotless Titan.

[…] CCP [the makers of EVE Online] often touts this sort of thing with the bland marketing lingo of ‘player generated content.’ What that actually means is that you get to share a galaxy with Russian aluminum magnates, French-Indonesian nightclub-owning hackers, self-aggranziding ‘spymasters,’ and people who will cut the power lines to your house to destroy your internet spaceship. There’s something deliciously addictive about the sweeping, endemic insanity, one of the ever-present yet rarely remarked upon facets of this most unhinged of MMOs. (x)

This is the game that PFO wanted to emulate, folks....

But really how much damage could an angry 5th grade twig of a girl armed with a baseball bat do to a forest. It was just my way of expressing the frustration and fear I couldn't at home.

We are on second level... Immunity to disease is on third...

We are playing 5th edition though, so the paladin can just spend 5 hit points from his lay on hand limit to remove single disease or neutralize single poison. Of course he had to touch oneself to do this. In a bush near the road when he stopped to check why the saddle itches him so much.

informs local garou of this travesty

Okay, I've been busy again, but I could give the recap of the Skype Pathfinder.

The adventuring party includes...

- Karnax "the Great Wyrm", Kobold Sorcerer and self-proclaimed dragon.

- Alaizia, a Gnome Bard / Sorceress who was raised by Varisians and worships Desna.

- Sorbin the Ogre (!) Fighter, who seems to be less vicious than most of his kind, but not very bright.

- Sir Underhill (?), a halfling Brawler / Cavalier with a thick accent (of some kind) and a professional air to him.

Unusual Andoran Adventure:
So, this campaign begins in Darkmoon Vale, where Thuldrin Kreed was replaced as leader of the Lumber Consortium by a morose man named Roland. Judging from some lore stuff, this campaign takes place after the Kobold King saga and such. The place has become slightly less bad to live in (but still a bit dangerous), and the population has had a surprise surge of eager dwarven lumberjacks along with the local humans and such. However, lumberjacks have begun to disappear in the woods and business as well as general morale throughout the town have begun to suffer as a result.

At least one group of adventurers was sent to find the missing workers, but none of them have come back thus far. One day, a kobold named Karnax (who was exiled from the Truescale tribe before the Kobold King's demise) steps into town, a smug look on his face and a spark of curiosity as he noticed how lethargic the locals were. He then found himself looking for information at the local tavern, where he was informed of the crisis in town. Seeing a chance to earn some fame, Karnax offers to help find the locals, a quest he undertakes alongside a somewhat exotically dressed Gnome Bard named Alaizia and a scruffy Cavalier / Brawler (not sure which) only known as Sir Underhill (Not sure if that was the right name). After meeting up with Roland and negotiating about a reward, the three set out to the woods to find the lumberjacks. To their misfortune, Sir Underhill (assuming that was his name) disappears, leaving Karnax and Alaizia to wander by themselves.

During their trek through the woods, they run into a tall, gaunt man who seemed to be minding his own business until the two decided to ask for directions. After a brief conversation with the eccentric man, Karnax receives a wand from him after demonstrating his abilities as a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. Before the man decided to disappear, the two realized he might have been none other than Bigby of Greyhawk fame. Why he was in the woods or what he was doing is a mystery to the two. However, Karnax and Alaizia continued their quest and got to knowing each other a bit better as they traded magic tips and just had a bit of a chitchat. They eventually arrived at what seemed to be some dwarven ruins, where they find an ogre asleep by a nearby tree. As he woke up, the ogre yelled out asking where the "choppie chop men" are, and noticed Karnax and Alaizia nearby.

Mistaking the two for someone else, the ogre roared and flailed in anger as it approached. Alaizia backed away in fear, while Karnax eventually got the ogre to calm down with an angered growl. After a moment of miscommunication, the two found out that Roland had also sent this Ogre (named Sorbin) to find the lumberjacks, but it seems his group left him behind after he fell asleep on the way. After the ogre decided to accompany the two on their quest to find the missing lumberjacks, the session ended. We have no idea where our brawler disappeared, but that will probably come up later. No idea who might be behind the disappearings, though quite a few places we ran by have had large wolf paw prints around them, so at least werewolves are in the list of suspects.

This is why I have a small indoor grill =) That and because a big outdoor one is expensive and requires more maintenance.

I am definitively nocturnal, if left to my own "nature" - as proven relatively recently, this includes both having interesting things to keep me up at night... and being really bored... and being really tired... and not being as tired. Basically, in all states, I've found that my tendency is "The sun is down: it's wakey-time!" instead of, you know, like normal human... wakeful... things... sleep... stuff.

Really not sure why. Heaven knows I've tried to anti-program myself away from that.

And, when I was younger, I could, too. It was fairly easy, even: spend one 24 hour day awake, then go to sleep at your preferred sleep time (really about two hours before): voila! Unless forced into an all-nighter, I'd be pretty much set until the next time my sleep schedule changed.

** spoiler omitted **

Same. Without work involved my normal sleep schedule is falling asleep somewhere between 2 and 4 AM and waking up between 10 and noon. My brain is wired for second shift... not a great thing when you do mostly office jobs and every office job in the country that isn't a call center is on 8-5 first shift schedule.
