We got the Wife's cat back today. ~grimaces~ Around $350 to get him fixed up. Oh well. Easy come, easy go. The only problem is that we have a house that needs some serious work that needs to be done now and car insurance is looming on the horizon.
In town,
Out of town,..
BACK in town (Stupid work can't live without me grumblegrumble,...)
Back OUT of town,... And hope student workers don't let the building burn down in my absence. :/
That is my schedule for the next weekend/week :P
hi everyone
sunday the wifes cousins visit us for barbecue.
I will do a sightseeing tour of Gelnhausen with them

did you know that the Inn "Zum Löwen" (the lion) in Gelnhausen was in the hands of the same family from 1506 till 2012
famous guest have been :
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Germans National Poet. one of his most famous works is "Faust" a play about a medival scholar who sells his soul to the devil.
and a few centuries before him: Dr. Faust himself.
one of the most secure proofs he was a real person coms from a letter from Abott Johanns Trithemius where he told a friend about the shady figure of Faust who offerd to read his future in the Inn than fled Gelnhausen after he found out who Trithernius was

according to the letter, Fausts calling card read:
Magister Georgius Sabellicus Faustus iunior.
fons necromanticorum, astrologus, magus secundus, chiromanticus, agromanticus, pyromanticus, in hydra arte secundus
the first title transaltes "wellspring of necormancy"
A veritable font of necromancy!
Now I'm curious as to the fate off the innkeeper family that they left the inn after a half millennium
Oh lawdy. So ready to go home
Sigh, I have to get ready to LEAVE home again, ... I really should pack soon. I have to leave in the stupid AM.

Got the callback on the tow truck job. I think I have it, I just have to go in tomorrow morning and get set for training hours. I'll make some money if it kills me...

Zombie truck driver?!?
Go-Go-Monkey Job-Getter! :)
Being a zombie would help. No sleep requirement. Although I am happy with my 5-6 hrs/night needs. No b$%#*ing.

Now I'm curious as to the fate off the innkeeper family that they left the inn after a half millennium

I have heard the new Horror Adventures has an option for a lich to use a family bloodline as its phylactery. This inn and the family would be a good seed for an adventure, perhaps with the inn having hidden doors, secret passages, paintings with peephole eyes, etc. for the lich hidden in the secret forgotten basement crypt?

My mind works in strange and disturbing ways.
I saw a car with those little decals on the back window of the family: man, woman, 2 babies (crawling to the left), and dog (also on all fours pointing left). I couldn't help thinking about how much I wanted to move the babies and dog closer together so it would be husband, wife, and their human centipede.
Got a problem with nontraditional families?

*chuckles* I think that the only problem with non-traditional families CH ever had was solved some time ago by certain famous court ruling...
So more good news. They decided the "venom glands" in my lower jaw need to come out because they are eroding the jawbone from the inside and need to be biopsied. They're going to do something called a BSSO mandibular surgery to expose the nerve/blood vessel canal, dissect away the growth, and wire the jaw together again. 2 days in hospital, 2 weeks at home, 6 weeks of chewing nothing. Sleep sitting up, ice packs, yada yada.
The damned finger won't even be healed by the time the jaw gets broken! o_O
And in keeping with Patrick's ♪♫ always look on the bright side of life ♫♪ theme, I'm grateful they found these things before any symptoms cropped up and that they can do something about them before nerve, blood vessel, or more bone damage occurred.
Yay?
EDIT: You know, looking on the positive side really does help. Also grateful for anesthesia.

That's my theory. The doctors aren't buying it.

It won't work as well as it should if you haven't developed proper fangs to deliver the venom, though...

I'm obviously rife with gila monster DNA.
The Gila monster produces venom in modified salivary glands in its lower jaw, unlike snakes, whose venom is produced in the upper jaw. The Gila monster lacks the musculature to forcibly inject the venom; instead, the venom is propelled from the gland to the tooth by chewing. Capillary action brings the venom out of the tooth and into the victim.

Urgh. They can't make a biopsy with a puncture?
Played a Game of Thrones today. Mildly disappointing, because one of the players (the main organizer who drew Martells) got himself, erm, very not-sober before the first turn and being practically unable to play beyond the first turn. His occasional babbling soured the mood for other players as well. As I was playing Tyrels, he was on my flank so I did attacked him early on, though it did not secured my victory - we had two Clashes Of The Kings in a row early one, first was quite beneficial to me, but as I burned through my tokens, I was unable to maintain my first position in the Sword, and the second position in the Crow. In the end it were Greyjoys who took advantage of geopolitical situation in the North and the central regions of Westeros.

I can just see it now ...
The carriage slowed as it entered Bad Ewigkeit. The night was foggy, a deep silver shroud wrapping the simple stone and lath houses. Justin peered out of the fogged carriage window shivering
"What's the matter boss?" His Mimir companion Memnon asked from his velvet-lined carrying case.
"I know this inn we are going to supposedly has a portal hidden somewhere in it according to that tome I found in Strahdstad, but this place is creepy even for this world." Justin replied as he scanned the dark village
The carriage clatters to a halt in the courtyard of a large square inn, brick and lath work looming over the muddy yard. Two young men run out to tend the horses as Justin snaps Memnon's case shut and opens the door
"Try and keep quiet, bonebrain" He quips
The muffled rejoinder is faint, but audible. Justin pretends he didn't hear it
Justin walks past the carriage and towards the Inn's main door. The creak of the inn's sign shatters the stillness. A fierce lion snarls from its wooden plaque. As he approaches, a tall figure fills the door way
The man is well over two meters tall, with a shock of salt-and-pepper hair framing a corpse-pale face. A scar runs down from his forehead to chin, intersecting with one milky eye and turning the corner of his mouth into a sardonic clown's grin. He is dressed in simple worker's clothes, surmounted by an apron that had once been white, many years ago
"Welcome to the Zum Löwen Inn, Herr Case". The man intones supulchrallly.
