I got third degree burns once.  Didn't feel a thing on the wounds for almost a month, at which point there was a dull ache and the new skin was very, very, very heat sensitive (even lukewarm water was painful).

Happy New Year! See you all Monday

Happy New Year!

But honestly a small part of me is pretty sure the clock will roll over from Dec 31, 2020 11:59 pm to Dec 32, 2020 12:00 am tonight...

Sorry everybody in my group.  With being over worked, inflamed gums so I been in a lot of pain (painkiller only working sometimes) and big cracks appear in walls of the house over winter I did not notice we moved threads.  Will try to catch up and post.

In reply to Rosewood (msg # 20):

No problem@ hope your pain fades and gums heal.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 21):

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year everyone! It did roll over to 2021, but with recycling these days, maybe this isn't a new year but 1939 recycled...

I was away from the computer for New Years and my wife's birthday.  We did a "Spa at the House" day, with me giving my first (and potentially only) Mani/Pedi.  Not sure I'll be invited back, but it was at least...competent.  Balir and CO will be back at it tomorrow.

It's the thought that counts, as long as all digit's remain and are not overly cut up ;-)

My wife is a Christmas baby, so I do understand.

I bet the 'warm cloak' is a Snuggy.  Any moment now it'll start to hug and snuggle Emma right to death...

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

/dons pedant hat

Everybody should though.  They RSVP 2 months in advance.  ;)


(No seriously, the Spanish Inquisition always scheduled inquisitions two months in advance to give the subjects of the inquisition time to prepare their evidence.  Which is what makes the Spanish Inquisition skit so much funnier to me...)

Sounds like the Tax office...wait, so THAT is where we get out Taxation audits from!

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 28):

Death and taxes are the province of the Hadereum.

So, Plutocrat, you are...inevitable?

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 30):

Thanos he is not. Hades on the other hand...

I can't focus today, and not because of yesterday's terror attacks,  but because I got the second vaccine.

No problem, rest up, get over the vaccine, stretch out that back.

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 32):

Ok better now.

Need someone other than the leprechaun to engage this guy in with Kalima

In reply to Narrator (msg # 33):

Well, really, nature druid with no skills in diplomacy and a bit of a thing against humans, who keep chasing her species for their pot of gold?

[Private to GM: Rolled 4 over HT...is this something I should use luck to pass?]

For story purposes, the fail is important.
You cannot speak!


Btw,  been reading an interesting series of posts about polytheism; in the Roman worldview, all of the gods are venerated, and each has its job. For example, all funeral rites involve Hades...

Also, work has been insane, will try and catch up tomorrow.

I figured you were already doing this to some degree just with the 'anachronism' of a professional clergy because "Cleric Template".

It is why Theology is by pantheon, not deity.

Work is always very busy the next couple weeks, after customers finish their holiday "quiet periods" and start working on changes again.  I expect to be around as normal, but the last couple days...not so much.  Will try to do a better job of managing it.

MWAhahahahahaha....

Have we lost or misplaced Mancini?

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 40):

We seem to be missing Marcus as well, played by dreadpiratepaul
