Empress_Owl: Ho, nice... I prefer you when you don't threaten people to obviously slow and painful death with your coffee stirs :-P
He... I have no idea. I made the excessive amount of sangria... the guests bring the tapas. If they continue to cancel, we'll end up only 2 and with 6 liters or more of fruity wine to drink over the weekend :-)
No threats here. There's nothing I can think of off-hand that would make me angry enough to do such things.
Also, I don't even use coffee stirrers, honestly. -laughs- Spoons work better.

6 liters doesn't sound excessive. You can't help it if you get cancellations. Sounds like a fun idea, though.
Tapas look like they'd be enjoyable to make, plenty of options and variety.
New forum bug, the auto-double post. Wonderful.

>________< ....eeeew.

And, I'm wrong, it's 8 liters. I don't mind having cancellations, but on D-day... it pisses me off.
yes, tapas are great !!! :-P,',,',',,' (no wonder why I came back from 2 days in Barcelona with 3 extra kg... lol)

For my coffee, silly person. ;P

Okay yeah, that's bad etiquette. If I had to cancel, I wouldn't wait until the day of to do so.

I've never had them before, but I'm looking at recipes now. Might be able to make some good stuff.

Uh huh. Always something new. Hooray.

Aaaaaaah, pheeew :-D
Yes... one has a headache and cancelled yesterday, but i saw it after we made the sangria... two others are invited by the lady's mom tomorrow, and since they have a long way to go, they cancelled here (2 days ago though, so it's ok)... and the other 3 who should have come cancel right now, for a dumb reason (she had a pain in the eye in the morning ; and a wedding tomorrow ; now her headache (?) is getting better, but she thinks she'd rather stay with her daughter because she doesn't see her much... and on top of everything, she offers to do another tapas party next time, when "everybody will be available and in better shape"... >:-| ... not very surprised though, it's the "friend" who blows a fuse every 6 months and yell at us that we are horrible friends. I'm fed up with her, really... i'm not going to do any further effort toward her, i'm done.)

will you share your recipes with us when you're done ?... :-P

CarrionCrow: Good afternoon. =)

Yeah, I think it's going to be good overall, if frustrating at times when it kills my uncoordinated ass endlessly.
Ah, so it is a tough challenge. It's both good and troubling to hear that :)
Are there many difficulty levels/options to choose from?

...I'm not sure what my weekend entails, actually... Might get S&S if I don't end up going to bars (much) this weekend...
Probably will make decisions after my last work gig today. In a state of exhaustion, the best thoughts occur :D

Some of that sounds valid, some of it sounds like total crap.
But on the bright side, even with the worst case scenario it's you making something to eat and having the sangria to yourself. ;)

I can see why you would be. Problems are one thing, everyone has problems. But the explosive meltdown that shows up like clockwork seems to indicate that they're either oblivious, or they take it for granted that they can scream at everyone when they want and the people will still hang around.

Sure, if you'd like. Will probably end up making a day of it, do a bunch of cooking, put a menu together that meshes well.
Good afternoon folks *big hugs and waves*

Good News™: The pc i built today doesn't work properly -.-

How are you all doing?

No, there's only the one. If you play through and beat it, you can do new game plus, which is harder.

-laughs- The fatigue will remove the extra stuff, boil it down to what you really want the most. (Which might end up being a nap...)

Good afternoon. =)

Hmm. Sounds like your day's going swimmingly. But you know what you're doing, you can figure it out.

Can't complain here. Just grabbed a soda, dealt with the animals, all the usual fun stuff.

Goofternoon.

Going alright here, thanks. Nothing too interesting to speak of, which is mostly fine :-p

That's it. And for some reasons, I don't like being screamed at :-P well, once can happen... I can understand. But 3 times in one year, well... pluck off >:-| i'm not a punching ball. (and that's not me ; all our friends in the band have the same treatment... and are also pissed at her...). Tant pis... we only have one life ; why should we worry about selfish/annoying people... :-)
I know I said yesterday that I would not be on again until next week, but I just wanted to drop by and wish you all a lovely weekend. I hope you are all doing great and are enjoying what ever is going on on the front page (GOG Connect?). I will try and catch up with the thread next week when I am hopefully feeling a little better and see what I have missed... maybe, you lot talk a lot and that is a fair few pages to check over, so maybe I will just ask for a recap once I am back. :-)

Take care!

*big hugs and sleepy waves*

superstande: Very glad to hear you are not in any serious danger anymore. Missed you here!
Can't seem to send chat messages for you but maybe it's just gog (my first guess).
Taketh careth!!
I have my chat set to friends only. I have sent you a friend request, so if you accept it you should be able to chat. Of course, feel free not to accept it if you don't do the whole friend stuff, I won't take any offence. :-)

Yeah...that's bullshit. Once? Maybe, and even that is totally dependent on the circumstances.
Three times is ridiculous.

That's a very good point. Ultimately, none of it is worth the time or energy.
