Well, I got diagnosed with clinical depression today. I was prescribed anti-depressants and I have to drive back to the doctor's office once a week until I get a counselor. I'll just head off any questions and say that no, I've never even considered cutting or killing myself. And also, no one better treat me differently I quite enjoy trading insults with friends and would be disappointed if anyone got scared of making me feel bad. (Cuz you won't make me feel bad.)

I'll bet you wish you had a non-unglued/unhinged card that shared your first name.
KoolKoal, you are a blight on society and the world would be better without you. Every breath of air you take is wasted, and the matter you compose is unnecessary.
KIDDING. That's pretty wild about that depression.. you don't strike me as that kinda person.. ah well, might as well enjoy the drug-induced euphoria.
I had no idea! Now if only I could find the other times!

Don't make Tanthalas jealous! He might think you're more emo than him now.
Also: Completely kidding!
Quote from Tanthalas »
though that may be the "agua del dios" talking (for all those of you old enough to drink alcohol (;)), a simply divine mix of cachaca, orange juice, lime, and soda).
I may just have to try that. It sounds good.
Quote from Avatar of Kokusho »
The people who first fixed my van apparently put a faulty part in it. That's why it screwed up. It is now happily back in my driveway, running as normal (for how long, no one knows =/)
Sorry, but as one of the House skeptics, I gotta give it until the thaw. Bad stuff happens during the thaw. Even south of Washington, DC.
And yes, no incantatrix for you. Or anyone. That class makes puppies cry. Mostly because they are the former Big Bads who have been Baleful Polymorphed into said puppies. By you. Because you're an incantatrix.

This is Deraxas we're talking about.
Remember, the girl that just killed an aspect of herself before literally consuming her?
Yeah, I don't see her handling a pissing match in any way other than a duel.

I suppose it's true. Though the logistics implied in a human/Great Wyrm Prismatic Dragon pairing makes me shudder.
...Something tells me that even should all arcane casters in the world unite, that the Grease spell would NOT be sufficient.
But I have good news! I just bit the bullet and tried to call him, and then he decided to let the barrier down to talk online, so we talked online for a while, and basically... I'm just really happy because he's not just leaping into a relationship, and while its gonna be, and still is kinda hard for me to adjust to, and think about, i know that whatever he learns with her will help him in the long run, and the awesome part is that he said he won't forget me, and that he needs to let time fade away the bad stuff that happened and at that point, we can reconnect, after we have both healed and while part of me is still a little nervous, its a great feeling to know that I'm not going to lose him permanently... I still have high hopes and confidences that we will end up together in the long run, and I just know that we both need to live our lives separately from each other until that point where I am able to live independently, can be myself, alone, can be happy by myself... etc.. Then when the time is right, and we have completely healed to the point where we can put the past behind us, we cna begin rebuilding our friendship up again, and that'll be great because when we do, we'll have soooo much to talk about! I'm really gonna miss him, no doubt.. and it'll be hard for me to think about him being with another girl, but i'm going to really try to be thinking on the positive side of that.. he's taking it slow with her, and he's still healing, and she is healing from a painful breakup too, so they're healing together, so i'm just going to wish him and her the best, and just hang onto the thought that someday, I'll see him again, and we can catch up on everything we missed out on in each other's lives and at that point, when the friendship has built up significantly, then I can think about being with him again... Its going to be hard sometimes, but I'm feeling a lot better after having that conversation... being able to live my life without stressing so much about him will be nice... Its weird, I feel an ease I havne't felt in a long tiem...
At the same time, there's still a hole... but I know i need to fill that hole in with the missing part of myself, at least until our lives reconnect in the way they're supposed to, after the healing process... Its scary, but a nice thought at the same time
To KK: Be careful man, make sure you get a second opinion before you go on drugs cuz they can really mess you up if you're on the wrong ones, my boss was telling me a little about his own story, so just watch out for that, cuz Alacar's right, you don't strike me as the type.
Good to see everyone, especially Kraj and Snoop popping their heads in again... Feel better to everyone who's sick, and hope your van is finally fixed soon, AoK!
I'm gonna go play some WoW with Mike Enjoy the night, folks! Oh, and a chess game would be awesome if anyone wants to hit me up
Yesterday and today are hazardous to my health. The ground nearby is so frozen and full of black ice they actually canceled school at 10 AM this morning and it started at 8:30. Yesterday they had to cancel at noon. Heck, I went out for a quick walk across the driveway (which is maybe 30 feet across) and I nearly fell four times.
So, because of that, I've been kinda stuck inside with the soaked carpet - For those that don't know, one of the pipes on the old heating system burst and its dripping ever so slowly - wishing for something to do other than play games/read books. Sometimes I just hate February weather.
Wow, that sucks. I can't say I've ever experienced weather like that (that I can remember), but I can definitely say I don't want to.
Good luck surviving the winter with weather like that running around.

I agree with Alacar, I would not have pinned you as someone with clinical depression at all. You can expect me to treat you the same as I was before, but then again, I don't think I was insulting you before anyway.
@AoK: Well, that sucks about the van, but good to hear that you got it fixed for no (monetary) cost. The time and inconvenience sucks (and any economist will tell you that in and of itself is a cost), but at least you didn't have to dish out any more money.
As for me, I kind of disappeared for a few days. Wednesday I had a rather long day. I had to get up early and then I had a lot of stuff to do and just didn't get a chance to log on (I like sleeping, thank you). Thursday I rarely have much time, and given the backup from Wednesday, I decided it would take too long and I didn't have time again. That meant I didn't get on until today, but I didn't get home until quite late, so that's basically where I've been.
I have to admit, I'm apparently in pretty good shape compared to some people here (sorry to hear about all the crap guys), but I did have an exhausting few days.
To KK: Be careful man, make sure you get a second opinion before you go on drugs cuz they can really mess you up if you're on the wrong ones, my boss was telling me a little about his own story, so just watch out for that, cuz Alacar's right, you don't strike me as the type.
The doctor was the second opinion, I've already felt this way for a long time and finally decided to stop hiding the problem from other people :aww:.

Good to see ya back Krash! And that's a good thing, KK.. I'm glad you're coming to terms with it.. Its kind of like me and my Non-Verbal Learning Disability..I'm going to make an appointment to see a neurologist at some point soon about that.. I want to get a formal opinion about it.. I was diagnosed by a psychologist, but they said that they recommended i go into a neurologist... that was four years ago tho
So yea I'm going to try to set that up, as well as try to find another chiropractor, at least for the time being because my chiropractor is gone until March 3rd!
Anyway, I'm going to acutally make my dinner and play some WoW if i can manage it before the server shuts down tonight..
Oh and IM me at ArchivingWriter if you wanna play chess
Hello everybody:) I have returned faster than expected.
Everytime I leave the LOLcats appear........wierd.
O, the FNM this week was draft, we drafted morningtide and it was pretty awesome honestly, Changlings+any Equipment=PwN. I ended up drafting Mono Blue......Control?:confused: I ended up getting second:p....first place got a Mutavault:mad: But I got a Bitterblossom and Earwig Squad:D which I was happy about.
Well good luck Kevin, Check in every now and about to let us know your alive;)
not bad, getting stuff set to celebrate my birthday early (it's on tuesday and I'll be back at school by then.)
Psiblast: Yeah, blue is a good color to be in with a triple morningtide draft, esp. if you can find several negate and sage's dousing. toss in a few latchkey faeries and your deck is set (I had 2 in my sealed pool at the pre-release, but being an idiot I didn't run them )

So.. my girlfriend of 3 years ran away from home with her brother.
This happened about a week ago, and they got into Child Services. Seems her mom has given up parental authority and now they're living with a nice foster home an hour further away from where they were. She's had to relocate her school and they're still waiting on getting their stuff.
This is a pretty wild change for all of us, I'd say. Suddenly she's got a new family, but a cool stepsister, and she's had to go to a new school. I don't have to sneak around behind her parents' backs anymore, but she lives an hour further away from me.

I got 5 Negates, 3 Latchkey Faeries, but 0 Sage's Dousing. It was a pretty good deck and I went 3-1 during swiss(I lost to the same person I lost to in the finals), it would seem that that Pyroclasm Councel guy is really really good especially when he killed every creature I had:-/.
So.. I saw Alvin and the Chipmunks this evening. Had a lot of fun with my nephew. He and the rest of the family are gonna go out to eat. I might join them.. I dunno, I'm pooped and full of popcorn and Skittles.
Now if you excuse me, I got a letter from Heather today..
Ok, so a little late on the Release tourney report, due to the tourney and work, but here it is.
We did LorLorLorMorMor sealed. I had amazing! rares, crappy everything else. First two packs I pull Thoughtseize and Murmering Bosk! I was happy Other rares included an Indominable Ancients, Guile, Foil Purity, and Dauntless Dourbark. Everything else, as said, was crap. I pulled one other treefolk, luckily a harbinger. I went w/g with a splash of black. It was all kithkin and elves and treefolk. It was a forest of surprise, with the surprise being when it won.
I went 2-2. Nearly 3-1 but my last opponent had Sygg-reinforced merfolk/changlings.

Hey peeps. Not a whole lot of time to talk, but I have two whole new albums of pictures to share! I spent today visiting Sakai-Minato, the hometown of the creator of GeGeGe no Kitaro. It was, in a word, awesome. I love my job, and I love this country. I should have internet by the Tuesday after next, so look for me to be online a lot more after that. Recent foods I've tried: Curry, Curry w/ Pork Cutlet, Okonamiyaki. My first really long blog will be about food. It may be next weekend before I post it, though.

Should be sleeping, yes. It's 2:48am here. On the other hand, I have a very easy day tomorrow, and I don't have to be anywhere until 1:00pm. I can sleep until 9 or 10am. The only day that really throws me is Friday, when I have to get up at 7am. *shudder*
But yes, it is rather very cold, here, and my fingers are starting to refuse to operate correctly. This is the second time I've been out this evening, the first being to upload pictures and talk to my parents. I'll talk to you all when I can.
Well, I'm no longer sick, and the kids got over it faster than I did.
Waiting on things to pick up in my campaign- it got slower than molasses for awhile, making me rethink treasure distribution- I'm going to handle it a bit differently next time, so as to not totally mess things up again.
Krash gets a million for his help and work, though.
And yes, no incantatrix for you. Or anyone. That class makes puppies cry. Mostly because they are the former Big Bads who have been Baleful Polymorphed into said puppies. By you. Because you're an incantatrix.

And yeah, even if you can sleep until 9 or 10, 3am still seems a little late to be out in the freezing cold. We know you love us, but I think your fingers are more important.
@AoK: Good to hear you're feeling better. And thanks for the cookies, you don't want to see my spreadsheet.
Anyway, I may not be on much for the rest of today. I have quite a bit of work to get done, so there's a good chance I'll just be doing that all day.
See you folks later.
As for Treasure.. I make it easy. I usually try to have any magical items stuff that the PCs would want to use--stuff right up their alley, so there's rarely a moment where no one in the party wants an item. Expect this philosophy to show up in Curse.. soon as you guys start finding magic items. (You found one--right up your alley too) If there's ever a moment like that, usually the party is okay with selling the item in question.
Super Bowl today! Whee.
Also, the Final Fantasy d20 game is awesome already--I'm an unstoppable beatstick.
Yep, I will be watching the Super Bowl, So who is everyones pick to win(:rolleyes:), of course I am going with the Under Dogs because its always fun to see the Under Dogs win.
I modified the Deck build we had, now its a heck of a lot more stable, can handle masses and doesnt die so easily
Goodnight Brandon
Talking about the FF campaign yes it hasnt even started and we are all potential beatsticks (Im debating about what animal companion to get, if i get Hawk i get wings so ill focus on a bow and do air strikes :D, if i pick bear im a tank, slap a great axe/sword/hammer and you got a juggernaut, if i get Wolf i get a all around balanced character with a handy scout/companion).
I need to clear something up first before i make a final decision :p.
Also, thanks for making me chuckle Kraj.
