If spiders produced light like fireflies, nights would be 10x more beautiful and 1,000,000x more terrifying.
Drejk, here is a monster idea. A spider that uses light to snare it's prey!

I did something unconscionably stupid today.
A week and a half ago, I started fast-walking 30 minutes a day on my break instead of, oh, going to Daiso for Pocky and ume-flavored soda or sitting down with a book or browsing Paizo fora.
So every day I start my best-of-Queen playlist and I go. And after exploring the neighborhood around school, I settled on a route that's 1.75 miles long, which is nice. It's a start.
But today I thought, "Nah, this is never gonna burn fat or get me toned; I'm gonna jog it."
So I jogged for the first time in eight years.
And now my right leg is still hurting, ten hours later. I'm treating it with ice, aspirin, whiskey, and chocolate, because at least one of those should help, and because I'm stupid.
And because I'm stupid, I'm going to do it again tomorrow. Hermione's godmother's wedding is in three months, and none of my good dresses fit.
If I lose thirty pounds (no, I can't do it in three months, but I can do it eventually) I will be SMOKIN'.
If I lose twenty pounds, I will be ecstatic and buy something that doesn't scream "pushing middle-aged and frumpy" quite so loudly.
If I lose ten pounds, I will at least get back into the clothes I have, and i will try harder.
So... time to make it hurt. Pain is weakness leaving the body and all that horseshit.

Cut down on your carbohydrate intake. When running don't go to fast since you want to push the whole way through without stopping for a break.
Look on the bright side, my BF got out of condition and couldn't keep up with me on our Sat jog...though 1.75 miles would be doable for me, in the morning.
Afternoon it gets too hot to run.
I also suggest you give yourself a day of break before you go running again - you're going to be even more sore the next day. Youtube some floor exercises, and do them. Or maybe go for a swim instead - it's also good for losing weight.
Running stamina isn't instantly built up. I worked quite a bit just to get to where I am.
Also - watch out for knees - in older people sometimes continuous running can put too much strain on their knees and joints - especially if they haven't done it for a while.
My suggestion is that you don't try to do too much, too fast.

I need to get back in the habit of taking walks. The weather just needs to stop being rainy in no-sidewalk-land long enough for me to do it.

My seniors have changed their mantra from "three more days of school" to "three more days of puns." Complete with thousand-yard stare.
They've only had me for two.
I wasn't able to find Final Space on Netflix or Hulu, sorry Freehold!
Also, not a huge fan of Netflix.
Hulu is definitely way, way better.

Do they graduate on Monday?
Seniors get out about a week and a half ahead of the rest. Their last day is technically Wednesday, but that's mostly checking in books, etc. They're not counting it or today in their math.
...our school announcements never cease to confuse and entertain me.

One of my technicians...not born before 1990: "You have Netflix, right? Have you seen that new show of theirs...um...Lost in Space? Is that based on that movie with Joey from Friends?"
My actual response: "You have the internet. Use it."
Cap, Final space is on the TBS website. It's free if you don't mind commercials.
I do, I hate commercials.
Commercial free Hulu is the best twelve bucks I spend every month.

maybe you are being a little unfair. I remember the hullabaloo over the 90s movie that resulted in the property not being touched afterwards, their confusion is understandable.

I can't. To me "Lost in Space" is up there with knowing "The Lone Ranger", "Leave It to Beaver", or "Bonanza" as classic TV shows.
Clarification: Not necessarily the content of the shows - just that they were, in fact, TV shows at all.

Apparently one of my players is visiting New York right now...
And now I just decided to check on NH's Serpent Skull... Which since the website redesign does not simply appear lower on the list of threads as Adventure Paths Threads moved elsewhere.
105 posts since I last checked? What the boys have done?!

Daylight Savings discussion...happened.
"No! You're not adding another hour! You have the same sunlight! That is not how time works!"
"Daylight Savings was invented by Mark Zuckerberg, who is a time-traveling lizard person."
"What if we just got rid of time as a concept?"
Oh, I haven't checked since early April...
I did what Drejk told me to and bought some Polish mead.

Was thinking the same thing...
Just have to do a bit of digging to see if any of my usual booze vendors carry the stuff or if I have to turn to the inter-nets to get my claws on any.Though, if everything fails, I'll just go for some "local" mead ^^
I saw Lost in Space on Netflix, and was pretty sure that it's a remake of...something.
I went to school with young whippersnappers who don't know who Bob Dylan is, so I've been on both sides of this sort of thing.
Beat the Witchwood with the rogue and the hunter, both the on the first try, but can't go more than 4/8 with the warrior. I just don't get the warrior, if it weren't for Sulfuras I'd never win a match with the warrior.
Of course, pirate warrior is FACE!!! ;)

I... think I won!!!?
Over 24 hours since posting in The OffTopic World thread and no character's been created for me yet!
I think he forgot!
Doesn't that mean I win and get to rule the universe?

I thought he said you were a bard of some kind, but he'd have to think on it.
