O_o
I just realized the badness that could happen...
Thats why I'm trying so hard to control my emotional response. It's not that I'm not super angry at her really, it's more of disappointment and hurt. But I don't always have control of how my strong emotional responses effect the universe around me.
Mortimus and Drago? You're up.
Sure...Now I gotta go talk to the lurker ;)
I posted.
Hello,
I'm a new recruit. I've read your game-play thread, and I'm extremely excited to get a chance to play with you guys (though I'm playing with two of you already in Geoffrey's Finest.) I freely admit that I've not really played a dedicated divine caster before so I welcome advice. Particularly, with how I should spend my starting gold. :-)
Welcome aboard, Nicatha :)
Welcome aboard and good luck! Glad to have you. :o)
I'm happy to be here!
Welcome!
Well, tomorrow at 2pm I have my final PT session before seeing the Dr again on Tuesday. Really hoping for the best because if he don't let me go back to this job, I'm gonna have to find another one.
Already looking into some possibilities. I need to get out of that Hospital no matter what. Wish us luck
Welcome Nicatha.
Dr. Drago and Dr. Mortimus, you're needed in the gameplay thread.
Also, anyone else have anything to say before we go back to Ashford?
Well, I had a really positive PT session today. The therapist is amazed at my speedy recovery and thinks my arm should be good enough to go back to work. She wrote up some notes for me to give to the Dr so he'll be more inclined to let me go back to work when I see him tomorrow.
At least something is going right. Also, Henry has a chance to get an actual position at the plant that he's a security guard at and it pays alot better, like twice what he's making now, plus it would mean vacation and sick time, holidays off, AND benefits that are actually decent.
We are hoping he gets it, this could open up alot more possibilities for us.
Hello Nicatha, welcome abored.

Looks like the mythic stuff was added to the PRD.
Yup that's where I got everything.
Arista and I are out for my b-day dinner. The doctor cleared her to go back to work tomorrow. We'll be home in a while.
Party on Garth.
Schwing!
Overdid it on the pizza though...it was good stuff.
I'm going back to work, but if things work out for us, I'll be looking for work somewhere else. Hopefully, I'll find something I can do that won't kill me slowly.
Congratulations all around. And the days get brighter.
They almost always do, it just takes some time.
A lot of time usually :P
Welcome, Nicatha!
What kind of pizza did you have?
I had buffalo chicken, chicken fajita, cheesy spinach and canadian bacon, pineapple and cheddar. It's this pizza buffet place out near us: Larry's Pizza. They make all sorts of different pizzas, including dessert pizzas and they have a pizza of the month. This month was baked potato (!). I had their bavarian cream and peanut butter and chocolate chip for dessert. There's also a salad bar O_o
So...7 slices of pizzas and a bowl of salad total. That's why we save Larry's for birthdays and special occasions.
Sounds great! I was gorged in a similar fashion today (Thanksgiving lunch with the kids before break), so I'm looking at sleeping it off. That's how calories disappear, right?
Right you are. I've slept off many a huge meal and never gained a pound, this spare tire just happened to appear out of nowhere one day.
The gentleman that I am seeing doesn't eat carbs. My first question when this came up was "but if you don't eat carbs what do you eat? Are there non-carb based foods!?" :-p
I totally agree with our new friend. Withholding carbs for me would be a punishment worse than death, it might also be dangerous for others! ;o)
I couldn't give up cheese or warm bread; it's the Bavarian in me.
I am a mixture of alot of things. Irish, Scottish, German, English, Dutch, and Cherokee Indian. There may be a few other slight things thrown in there, but I don't have a detailed family history, so it's hard to say. But those are the main things that I'm made up of. I love meat, potatoes, raw and cooked vegetables, lots of different kinds of pastas and pasta dishes, cheeses, pretty much all things dairy even if they don't always agree with me, bread, and finally the most important food group of them all...CHOCOLATE.
I couldn't give up mexican, indian, sushi, italian, southern, cajun -- basically all the foods. He is pretty chill about it ("I can can order meat and vegetables anywhere"), though it does make selecting restaurants a pain. I end up suggesting korean bbq a lot.
But great for his six-pack! :-p Myself, I would prefer just to double up on cardio than not know the sweet embrace of carbs.
The only foods I'm not really able to tolerate are Indian and Cajun. I think it's the spices, but it really messes up my stomach. I like the taste of Curry, but it does awful things to me. Those are pretty much my only restrictions, though I do try to keep the amount of salt and fried foods to a minimum as much as possible.
I have that same issue with American-Chinese food. Gastrointestinal distress is not a cute look on anybody.
If I have Chinese food, it has to be real Chinese food from someone who actually knows how to make it well. The Chinese buffets that are out here just don't cut it. The main reason I go to them is for the sushi. I wait till they make it fresh and then load up on it. I think that Eel is one of my favorites, but really I like all of it.
I'm more of an octopus guy myself, but that was easier to find in California. I do like a good eel on a bed of rice.
Love sushi, most other types of food as well. I know for a lot of people the Cumin in both curry and Mexican can cause a bit of distress. I love a good curry though.
Fer the best Chinese food I tend to go to the places where I'm one of the of the only people who isn't Chinese. That's the real stuff.
lol Or Chinese places where they person at the counter isn't playing some F2P MMO.
I'm told that to some cilantro tastes of metal. Those people are obviously cursed by the gods.
Indeed
What language do they speak in Lakkara? I just realized that Common is probably not my native tongue.
'Lakkaran' :P (I know that's totally uninspired)
You can use Swahili in Google Translate for it.
Thank you GM Henry, you just got Star Trek stuck in my head with that statement.
This is what I imagine Nicatha sounding like.
