Movers come tomorrow. Seeing my life all packed up is still very depressing.Did you use the opportunity to get rid of any excess stuff?
I did indeed, I gave away my dungeon tiles since I have terrain and Dwarvenforge now. I sent a few minis to Crimson Jester and donated some comics to a friend here in town. I took a tonne of old novels to the local second hand bookstore. But for the most part my hobby stuff remains intact.
Thanks Lynora moving from Newfoundland to Saskatchewan is quite a difference. Going from seeing rocky cliffs fog and the ocean, to flatland prairie will be a bit of a difference.Movers come tomorrow. Seeing my life all packed up is still very depressing.Good luck with the move.
I found the lack of forests the harest thing to shake when I lived out West. Trees don't grow in a dry prarie unless planted and watered (or by the occasional river). It's 'big sky' country because there's nothing to block the view LOL

That kind of landscape gives me the heebie-jeebies. I want to hide under a rock so the Big Sky doesn't get me.

Yeah you really get the 'bug under a magnifier glass' feeling out there under all that sky.
There is nothing like being in the middle of the prairie and gazing up at the universe with nothing at all in your way.
Meh. I'm an arboreal primate. Open space scares me. I feel much more calm under a canopy, preferably in the upper branches with an ample supply of tree fruit and poop to throw at my foes....
Prepping lunch and taking orders. Okay, who's hungry?

Oh I am sure. There is however none of that if I just drive a few miles west of here. None. You can see for miles and miles.

I have to agree with Patrick I like the shade of trees.
Though as a pirate I like being out on the great blue ocean.

Oh yah. I lived in El Paso for three years. Nothing but hard blue sky for miles and miles. Nothing higher thn a mesquite bush once you went past the 'settled' areas. Can't say as I warmed to it. Or its dry heat...

I like the ocean from its edge. Boating is ok, but the Lovecraftian horrors lurking under the ocean's steely blue depths ..

Is that a Deep One in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

Come on you are already a thrall to Cuthulu so they won't harm you ... or at least your wife must be being a relative of Giles Corey ;)

The "more weight" thing creeps me out.

Oh, ïa. I guess so ... =D

Poor guy. Killed because the powers that be wanted his farm. Had his family name blackened for generations. I hope all those accusing f%~&wads got reincarnated as abortions or cockroaches for a few centuries.
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
The sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming
The moon's going to owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors and then rapidly
You just turn around and start asking me
about things that you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place, to feed your greed -
While I find a place to rest

Dark deception kills the light
Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for Father, roaming free
fearless Wretch
insanity
He watches
lurking beneath the sea
great Old One
forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the Shadows is rising
immortal
in madness You dwell
Crawling Chaos, underground
cult has summoned, twisted sound
Out from ruins once possessed
fallen city, living death
fearless Wretch
insanity
He watches
lurking beneath the sea
timeless sleep
has been upset
He awakens
Hunter of the Shadows is rising
immortal
in madness You dwell
Not dead which eternal lie
stranger eons Death may die
drain you of your sanity
face The Thing That Should Not Be
fearless Wretch
insanity
He watches
lurking beneath the sea
great Old One
forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the Shadows is rising
immortal
in madness You dwell.
thank you all.

Disease! Disease! Spreading the disease.
With some help from Captain Trips, he'll bring the world down to his knees.
Power, yes Power! He'll show them all his power.
It pulses through his ice cold blood, a whole world to devour!
Bridge:
He's seeing, he's calling, his legacy he's spawning.
He's coming, corrupting, among the living!
Murder! Murder! Commit cold blooded murder!
Like Nazis during World War Two, they only follow orders.
Hatred! Hatred! A crucifix is your bed,
Once he turns his eye on you, you'll be better off dead!
Bridge
Chorus:
I'm the walkin' dude, I can see all the world!
Twist your minds with fear, I'm the man with the power.
Among the living, follow me or die!
Man, fights Man! Divided they can't stand!
United, they can battle back, and make him force his hand!
Fear, yes fear! His end is growing near,
He didn't count on Man's good faith, and their will to persevere.
Bridge
Chorus
Follow me or die!
FIRE! HOT FIRE!! Purge the world with fire!!
Damnation is the price he'll pay, for an evil man's desire!
Good, versus evil! The stand to vanquish evil!
Man can only live one way, that place right in the middle.
Chorus
Follow me or die!
Among Among Among Among Among Among Among Among Among Among Among Among!
icky thump
who'da thunk?
sittin' drunk on a wagon to Mexico.
ahh well
what a chump
well my head got a bump
when I hit it on the radio.
redhead senorita
looking dead
came and said
"Need a bed?"
en Español.
I said
"Gimme a drink a water
I'm gonna 'sing around the collar
and I don't need a microphone."
icky thump
with a lump in my throat
grabbed my coat
and now it's reckon
I was ready to go!

You can't stand to see me that way.
No matter what I do, no matter what I say.
You can't stand to see me that way.
Yeah-e-yeah!
When I got to the party
They gave me a forty
And I must have been thirsty
'Cause I drank it so quickly
When I got to the bedroom
There was somebody waiting
And it isnt my fault
That the barbarian raped me
When I went to get tested
I brought along my best friend
Melissa Mahoney
Who had once been molested
And she knew how to get there
She knew all the nurses
They were all really friendly
But the test came back positive
Oh, oh, I've seen better days but I dont care
Oh I just sent a letter in the mail

You and me both, monkey. You and me both.
Although my fear of sharks outweighs the fear of the Old Ones.

Yeah. That place that is always in the news about Great White sharks? Chatham? 'Bout an hours drive down the coast. I don't like swimming in that junk. Gimmie a nice pond anyday. *brr*
If you get something stuck in your head, just sing the Smurfin' Beer song.
April 26th, 1992,
there was a riot on the streets,
tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV,
while I was paticipatin' in some anarchy.
First spot we hit it was my liqour store.
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford.
With red lights flashin' time to retire,
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire.
Next stop we hit it was the music shop,
It only took one brick to make that window drop.
Finally we got our own p.a.
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today?
Hey!

Did you notice they brought back 4D
I always thought it was 1d1+1d2+1d4.
<song-singing>
This brings back childhood memories. Still not sure if they're positive or negative, though.
Well, the wife got a call from the school district she works in. They offered a part-time lunch room position. A step down from Title 1 teacher assistant, but it's at least some money. Her job was eliminated back in the spring.
I hope this motivates her to take some classes and maybe become a substitute teacher in a different district.
Good luck to the both of you.
Movers come tomorrow. Seeing my life all packed up is still very depressing.
Sorry.
Re wide open spaces: The prairie is really pretty in spring. Plus you don't get so much rain and can see enemies coming for miles. And awesome-looking thunderstorms and loss of life.
On my front: Just finished my last GED test. The multiple choice writing questions cracked me up, while the essay portion was slightly less difficult than I expected.
Unfortunately, good stories rarely sell as well as formulaic ones with awesome fx. I have nothing against 3d, hd(although our politics differ), or any video format that comes out. I have my movies I like and movies I don't and that's about it. That said, uwe boll isn't seeing any of my money any time soon.
Care to elaborate?
Ah just avoid swimming with the seals and you'll be fine. I love swimming in the ocean. I also love great white sharks. But I am crazy and a liberatarian also Scottish to boot.
I can cop to most of that as well except the loving sharks thing. I don't wish them any ill-will, but..ya know ....
