Welcome back, Stilton! *big hug*

Sorry to hear about your bad news, but as Agent said, please feel free to talk about anything you like. This thread is full of awesome people who would love to lend you an ear. So feel free to share whatever you like.

*another rib cracking hug* :-)

AgentBirdnest: *epic sigh of relief*
I'm doing pretty good.
How are you? Where have you been?
We've been seriously worried about you!

Stilton: That thing called life... Nothing terrible, more of a long slow grind. I'm feeling like a pile of sawdust right now. The house sale is becoming a serious pain - it will end I keep telling myself, it will end... And we've all (me, other half, daughter) been dealing with a case of scoliosis (curvature of the spine) that decided to start turning my daughter's back sideways a few months ago. Not wishing to moan or air personal stuff for all to see, but kind hearts and tolerant ears are probably what I need to hear. Otherwise I'm still the same old slightly unhinged Nordic twit. Its nice to see your faces again ;-)

Hey, Endre ;-)

Bud - 800 games????? You'd better live till your very old, my friend...
Holy shit, man, it's good to see you. =)

Sorry to hear about all the other stuff, though...hoping that things are at least much improved with the health issues.

l0rdtr3k: FInished which game? And I'm doing great,just a bit tired.

CarrionCrow: Not really....well, not usually anyway.

I've bought or rented a bunch of stuff, and I refuse to let my money go to waste, so I play what I have, whether it's good or not.
Fortunately, I have no doubt that there are far more good items than bad, so eventually the shit pile will be done completely. =)
Hey there. =)

Yes, doing all right overall. Just finished off another game, so that's good.

How are things going with you?

l0rdtr3k:
Some piece of crap called Deadlight. Don't buy it. =)

GameSpot gave Deadlight a 6.5 and their users gave it a 7.2.

I've played worse. :D

Just curious... What is the worst game you have ever played?

**(Anyone feel free to answer... I'm curious about everyone's worst game.)

Hi, DD. I'd just recovered from the first one when you jumped me. You're stronger than you look ;-) And thank you very much for the welcome back.

Its been one of those deceptively low-level periods that you take with the usual hum and drum of life, but in my quieter moments (Stilton the Viking has quiet moments? I hear you say incredulously) you wonder how easily circumstances can slide out of control. The house thing will resolve itself eventually, but my daughter's back is a different matter. There are so many variables it makes your head spin. But what really pisses me off is she's my perfect daughter and I want her to be okay. The problem isn't a bad problem at the moment (its bad enough), but the condition does what it wants with no real rhyme or reason. So we're playing a waiting game, which is one kind of game I don't like.

I have worse on my desktop. Doesn't keep that from being vastly overrated. -laughs-

I'm counting on you, medical science! :) Though, to be honest, I imagine immortality will be uncovered just a few days after my death...

Overrated, the bane of fair and balanced reporting. :P

Damn, this year has really no intention of being good or at least nice to people. So sorry to hear about the daughter's health issues, don't know what to say, hope things get better soon and with as little discomfort as possible.

Hey, Mister Crow. How's it hanging? I feel a bit like I've risen from the dead, and I can say with hand on heart its a lot nicer being upright.

Unfortunately life seems to enjoy throwing spanners in the works and spins out lives out of control. I am so sorry to hear about your daughter, I can't even imagine how you must feel. But as I said, if you ever need a place to come and vent, to rant, or just to chat, then you are always welcome here, no matter what the topic, please feel free to get it off your chest. It always helps to talk to people.
BTW this is the shit part of being an innkeeper, waiting. I have people checking in but I'm not sure when and I can't really shut down for the day until they get here. It's a minor gripe but one none the less. :D

There are options, fortunately. Nature might like throwing these things at us, but mankind can think laterally if needs be. The medical world is pretty amazing when you're forced to delve into it.

Can't complain here. The usual, but it's better than anything really crappy.

And yes, it's better to have you living than fertilizing the grass somewhere. =)

I generally think that 'Humankind' refers to a type, unique in its way but related to other 'types' in that it coexists in the same place and time with them. But 'Humankind' is a different and far more personal thing and goes a long way to making lives more bearable when those times get tougher. I'm glad to be able to say that the people here have this latter variety in abundance.
