Yeah... I've lost interest in meeting that lady my brother knows. I asked him over the weekend to send her a message to ask when she'd be available to hang out with us, and his response was to once again point out that she's a really busy person. If she's too busy to receive a message about her avai...

My brother told me she's already broken up with the guy. I tried suggesting that we go play pool at the pizza bar where she works (regardless of whether or not she was working), but my brother said she was off over the weekend. I don't know about this coming weekend, and I'm pretty sure the one next...

Well, I think I managed to avoid some awkward and uncomfortable situations. My brother had outright refused to introduce me to that lady the week before, while I was on vacation, and that I should just go to the bar where she works. His wife and I both explained to him that if I went alone, I'd look...

Yeah, my intention was to go slow, so we could get to know each other better. That way, I could be careful and watch out for any red flags. However, given that one of her jobs is bartending, I'm wondering if the guys she's dated were also patrons who made a move. Though, really, I also don't think I...

Al... You probably don't want to learn what docking means in a sexual context...

As it turns out, I was the only person to do any digging, because my dad wasn't feeling good and my mom didn't know where any of the animals were buried. On a completely unrelated note, my brother's been trying for the past few weeks to get a friend he's known since at least high school to come out ...

Yup. I guess I won't be present for the burial. I'm usually the one to bury everything. On our current property, I'm up to the low twenties when it comes to burials.

When my cat dies, he's gonna be the last pet I have for a while, hopefully. I need a rest from this sort of thing.

My mom sent me a text about two hours before I got off from work on Monday to inform me that our oldest cat, Fancy (tortoiseshell, 14 years old), probably wasn't going to make it through the night. I got home, her body was limp, and she was as cold as if she had been dead, but she was still breathin...

I keep getting logged out when I visit the forums, even though I keep selecting "remember me" at the login screen. Anyone know what's causing this?

Between D&D sessions over the weekend, I had an idea, inspired by my brother's intention to have us use the same party to go through the other entry adventures, except the adventures would be adjusted for a higher level party. Since the adventure The Dragon of Icespire Peak, from the essentials ...

Crap... I think my arm is infected from where I got stung a couple weeks ago.

We played only one session over the weekend... The second night, we ended up talking about the Legacy of Kain series, and eventually ended up setting up a game console and played the second release, Soul Reaver, for a couple of hours. Now, for anyone not familiar with that game franchise (I imagine ...

So, my brother has discovered a fondness for lawn care recently. He also tends to wear a white t-shirt, jeans, and tand work boots, and he's been having to borrow his father in law's red truck lately.

He has become Hank Hill.

Fever's gone, but I'm coughing up phlegm on occasion. I also have to get a doctor to diagnose it as Covid and give me that in writing so I get temporary disability pay.

Well, already things appear to be looking better. My fever is down to 99.7, and it was 101 point something before.

Only real issue I'm having besides the headache is the lower back pain and the discomfort in my legs.

Well, I'm probably going to have to go to work with this crap tomorrow, because they have yet to update my schedule or actually call me. Edit: well, the case says I was approved for leave, and they made it start today, so I was credited my unpaid time off that I had originally selected to use, befor...

No D&D this weekend... My brother's father in law, sister in law, and I have all tested positive for Covid.

This must be a weaker variant, because it feels like a typical fever. Headache, fever, cough, and a stuffy nose.

For some reason, I'm picturing Critical Role's Travis Willingham casting Eldritch Blast as Fjord in Campaign 2: The Mighty Nein.

It's funny because the character uses a fake "southern/country" accent when he says "Eldritch Blast."

Cornstalk Maiden is probably still intact, and will probably come to life at some point, and see Castela as her mother.

In line with the D&D discussion, I'm thinking of getting some kind of vocal processor to do weird stuff, like roleplaying hyperdimensional entities and whatnot.

Ha! Those sound like fun. I'd been thinking that my homebrew setting wouldn't just be a few worlds on the prime material plane being connected. Each world would be part of its own multiverse (in this sense, the material plane and the higher/lower planes associated with it), so if the party wanted to...
