Looks like numbers is okay (for now)—his test from last Sunday came back negative. Best of luck dude. I was hoping Memorial Day weekend would mean MORE RAID, due to quarantine and all, but apparently it means NO RAID. Here's how it went: Early Friday morning, numbers put out the roll call. Pretty ...
May 16 – me, putting a pizza in the oven: *redistributes pepperoni evenly* roommate, putting a pizza in the oven: DIBS ON THE SIDE WITH MORE PEPPERONI DIBS DIBS DIBS === May 17 – Might be quitting The Alchemist Code soon. It's double hard shard week AND there's vision quest pro and I can s...
Laundry day means it's my first chance to wear this sweet wolf mask that Mom made for me. Mom used to sew most of my clothes herself, and I thought it was just a normal mom thing to do. In retrospect, it was probably because we were poor, and making clothes was cheaper than buying them. But at the...
I was walking downtown, playing Pokemon Go, and it felt so good to be strolling around outside and catching pokemon. I was west of the river, in an area where I don't normally walk, and that felt good too. I wasn't just walking for fun, though; I was on a mission. Soon I arrived at the library and...
Last Monday night, newbie was looking for friends to do Orbonne Monastery with him. HGR and I both got on. newbie asked, "Kan, you up for orb?" "Gimme a lil bit," said Kan. "Selling an E8S run." (Kan sells E8S runs?? People buy E8S runs???) "ETA?" asked newbie, but Kan had already disappeared....
Most of our group plays Apex Legends, but at varying degrees of seriousness. HGR doesn't care for FPS games, but he'll play because it's a team activity. On the other end of the spectrum is newbie, who has an FPS training program and a detailed training regimen. It's a very newbie thing to do. The...
There was a piece of bread in the parking lot. A seagull landed next to it, took his time scanning for danger—that dude patrolling the balcony, is he a threat?—then finally started eating. Seconds later, a shrieking dervish descended upon the parking lot. It was a second seagull, hungry for bread. ...
All good things come to an end, and that includes my condition of not needing a haircut. I last got a haircut on March 7, while visiting my parents on the weekend before entering quarantine, which in retrospect was great timing; but it's been two months since then and I'm getting quite overgrown. ...
HGR had a dream that he was doing trial roulette and somehow got Titan Savage. But it wasn't just Titan, it was a whole Praetorium-length dungeon with midbosses and such, and Titan was the final boss. Two of HGR's party members hated each other for some reason. When the team finally got to Titan, on...
May 1 – After 15+ hours walking on my balcony, I can see the path worn by my footsteps: a faint infinity sign that's lighter than the surrounding grime. May 2 – me: all this person does is cry and retweet Emet-Selch fanart me: ... me: *follows* May 3 – One of the postgame areas in Rabi-Ribi i...
It's Cinco de Mayo. I wouldn't have remembered it—one day is much the same as another in here—but Cayst mentioned it in her journal. The office Cinco de Mayo party is something I look forward to every year. Ray always goes all out; he decorates the entire place and brings traditional Mexican pastr...
We beat Hades EX! Kan was really enjoying his "chunky boi" status. He kept talking about it, asking the healers for extra heals and such. (But this is part of what I like about him; he's so boisterous. Possibly the healers appreciated it less.) I forgot to get an exaflare explanation from HGR, so ...
