  2. Are the women required to have beefy, shirtless male avatars now? It's looking like a stable in here. ;)

      I was glad I picked up Pandemic for this event; it was entirely too much fun! And there are two new role cards since I played it last?! Yes, please!

  4. Can't wait for the warm weather tomorrow. With a high of 34, I might even get a tan!

      Good to know. I'm going to find some spare gasoline and stay warm for daaaays. :)

      You're just a street corner and a steel drum away from pure bliss, man.

  5. Commander Jack Shepard reporting in. It's only been a few hours, but I am loving ME!

      Wait just a minute! Toobz was at that shin-dig and we didn't get a pic of him!?

      We got one of his son winning some martial arts award instead! And I think he posted one of his son at PAXEast too.

  6. Despite being one of the last DB naysayers, I'm delighting in the honeymoon period.

      Yes, please! I just ordered my Spanish Ambien from a sketchy website, so fingers crossed it shows up in time.

    4. Grieve

      Excellent idea Ashin!

  7. Didn't realize how much I missed 80's sci-fi until I started watching The Terminator.

      Go watch Highlander and Bladerunner!

  8. Each year my roommates and I co-host a Christmas party. This year I got the date wrong. And the party starts in three hours. :-O

      Fortunately we did all the decorating over the week. I just forgot that we moved it up a day. And I'm only responsible for the drinks (totes apropos).

      If any stripping happens, I'll be sure to upload a video! ;)

      I thought Toobz's comment was great, but he deleted it :p

  10. Getting ready for my first shift at Haley House! I'm excited, but my supervisor is certain I'll catch a stray bullet in that neighborhood. She worries too much. :p

      Good Luck. Remember to duck!

      This morning was a blast and even though we only had a few on we made a big impact.

      Now I'm even more mad at myself for binging the night before. :<

      No worries Jack, I was drinking, things got crazy and a few rams later the tower fell down. I think we all had fun in the end.

      Fun game, how many innuendos can you find in this sting of posts.

      My necro is 92 but gathering dust b/c I no longer play with those mods :(

      I'm starting over with one of the original professions. All the other options are just too much for me.

  14. I just found out there's a board game cafe down the street from my apartment. How did I miss this for two months?!

      oooh one of these was supposed to be opening in Cleveland sometime this year. I should check back and see if they did. Thanks for reminding me :D

  15. I pulled the inner doorknob off of the outer door of my building effectively locking us all in. Oops!

      Climbed out of a window in business casual to find the locksmith working on it first thing this morning :p

  16. I thought I'd use the day off to check out ArcheAge. My Glyph account was banned 30 minutes after I created it while the game was still downloading, though. :(

      I ended up doing that, but it's tied to an e-mail account I don't monitor.

      Why the ban? O.O

      Because they know he's a naughty boy!

  17. I wore my first pair of heels tonight. It was a lot of fun, but I can't believe women wear them regularly! Brava!

      If you're interested in some never worn charcoal gray snakeskin platforms in an 11 wide let me know, they take up too much space in my closet. :p

  18. I'm certain I can measure my ability to do crossword puzzles in the amount of coffee I've consumed. Turns out a Thursday NYT puzzle is about two cups.

  19. I'm certain I haven't learned the nuance between the parenthetical aside and the em dash interjection.My application of either is rather haphazard.

    1. Ashin

      Ashin

      Settle down please.

    2. Midri

      Midri

      Parenthetical is whispered; dash is shouted. It's a question of emphasis. ^^

  20. I'm into a Reclaim Your Avatar moment. Objectification is just too commercial for either side.

    1. Fera

      I miss my eye!

  21. I've stolen a puppy and am keeping it my office. Today just became the best day ever.

      A puppy would totally improve my office by about one thousand percent. Lucky you! :D

      It was a professor's puppy, and she's reclaimed the little treasure. I'm crestfallen.

  22. Just finished taking down my Christmas decorations. Undoing Christmas is so much more difficult than doing it.

    1. Gravey

      Gravey

      I find the opposite to be true. It takes me a good 2 days to put up the outside lights but a mere 3 hours to rip them off the side of the house, mash them together in a knot of intertwined cords, and smash them in a plastic box which according to breaking bad I can also use to dissolve a corpse with acid in. Go me.

    2. Gravey

      Gravey

      I suppose it does take me a full day to unwind the mess I made putting the decorations away the prior year. /sigh

      yet so much more rewarding

  23. Just found a new WS access boss! The roommate who didn't pay the internet bill.

  24. Just lost lunchtime Scrabble because I was caught holding the Z at the end. My life is over.
