Humans were drinking alcohol five thousand years ago, and they're still drinking it now. Alcohol is humanity's friend.

Can I abandon a friend?
I am on a laptop at work! HOORAY WIFI. Anyways, I can see about dragging my laptop back to work and posting sporadically until power returns, but I refuse to make any promises as to frequency or whether I'll be able to at all. There are trees down across roads and power lines EVERYWHERE, and I am unsure when they will be cleared. Expect two days at the least, a week at the outside most.

I guess it's a good thing Sparks is already wounded. How about she sits down and takes a rest maybe?

Haven't been given permission to fall out. Besides, I'm probably just going to camp at the bookstore Monday because it has power and heat and internet and hot food, so posting will be somewhat more regular than I first let on.

When I talk about the doomed, the scum, the people who no longer give a shit...When I talk about the filth of the city...I'm talking about you.

Well, I'm off for three well deserved weeks of rest. My connection will be sporadic, but I hope to be able to update every few days, except between christmas and new-years when I'll be totally disconnected.

What was once an inability to post due to the final essay rush is now an inability to post because of holiday travel.

What a season. :(

Everything should be hunky-dory by Wednesday, and hunky-dory it will stay beyond that point.

The season for christmas pictures is over.

I worked 60+ hours the last two weeks, and 55-ish the two weeks before.

I apologize for not posting much. I would get up, eat, go to work, come home, eat, and go to bed. On my days off I was so totally exhausted that I couldn't make a coherent post.

This week is pre-Christmas family stuff, so my time on the internet may be limited, but I fully intend on catching up on all my games in the next few days.

Now, I'm off to work for a blessedly short five-hour shift!

Magichate monday update: Puget Sound Energy says that power will be repaired in my region perhaps as late as Friday or Saturday. Hopefully this will not be the case and it will be on sooner, but we will see.

My apologies to the GMs who's games I didn't get a chance to post in tonight, I focussed mainly on updating my own. I will try and get posts in on Wednesday, but again, I am going to focus on the games that pretty much revolve around me updating regularly, and I apologize in advance for any interruptions of Magichateball service to your fine games.

Missed this. I'm in Spokane, which is about 300 miles and a mountain range away from the real disaster area. We got quite a bit of wind, and had a few dozen thousand people without power, but it was nothing like what hit the folks in the I-5 corridor.

It's that time of the year. At 7:00 AM tomorrow, I start my journey to Texas. I have no idea what technology is like in that godforsaken wasteland, but I do know that I won't have poo poo to do. If I can procure an Internet connection, posting will be fine; if not, it'll be nonexistant. I only wish I could say.

I'll be there until Thursday the 28th, when I'll head to Florida, where my Internet should be fine, then back home on New Year's Day, when I'll resume my normal lack-of-lifeiness.

Well, that's my life. How's everybody else?

Turns out I've got Internet. Even though Texas was never able to develop the subway, they apparently managed to provide me with access to the world wide web. Hooray. Posting will continue normally, I think.

Heh, when I moved into my apartment there were no fewer than three unsecured wireless networks in range. I haven't checked since I moved in though.

Like most people, I'll be busy this weekend. I'll try and throw updates to IH, but in-depth posting will be slow at best.

Goin' to Canada for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, then I have to go to work pretty much as soon as I get home. Fun! After tonight, probably won't be posting until the night of the 26th.

Scratch this. Updates will continue as normal, but we will see how much they are actually needed over the holiday.

Mom's cancer seems to have spread to her brain, they're unsure. Went to see her tonight, and we don't think she's going to make it through the week. Just wanted to let Metroid, Eberron, and potential ADOM people know in advance, in case I dissapear for a day or two. I'm at peace with the whole thing, but it's still going to be rough for a little while. Just a heads up.

As cliche as it is, quoting for truth. You need anything, from a kind word to a shoulder (digitally speaking) to cry on, let me know.
