dfektive: Can put anything on that not being me. My likes are very limited and I don't buy on reflex to shiny deals. I've read up on a list of games already that I've passed on. Of the 12 titles I have now only 5 were the reason I'm here, others were lumped with or freebees. I'm not saying I probably won't end up with more then I want to have but can't see myself hitting the numbers of some here. That is just far too much gaming that will never be touched.. o.o
Hmm. You might be one of those...sensible...people. It's a rare breed, but they do exist.

AgentBirdnest: Hahaha XD
I actually haven't seen Airplane 2. I gotta get on that!

akhliber: Ooh, thanks for finally adding the real essentials! ;) The Airplane movies were quite funny. I'm not often a fan of "slap-stick" comedy or whatever you call it, but I always had a soft spot for these for some reason.

*Reads about Stilton's Doctor-Who-Hired-This-Arsehole experience*
Eep! I've had a couple really odd experiences like that, and it's as odd as it is frustrating. Good thing you saw that side of him before going under the knife, at least. Best to find someone with more thinkyparts upstairs, I'd think. :)
He was very high on self importance and completely bereft of anything a sane person would call useful.

How's that fearsome hound of yours? Still earning his keep?

Good job, especially with your schedule being so packed with other things. =)

Will we get a pleasure of reading your novel?

Thanks! My book's not actually done yet but I'll continue with it when I'm less busy. :)

Maybe ... at some point ... in the future ... It's more likely I'll try to finish editing last year's novel first, that one is in somewhat better shape. :)

Hurl your sarcasm my friend. I ams what I ams and I can't be no more than. = P

Well, considering I finished both NaNoWriMo and my thesis proposal today, I think I might get a cup of tea and put a movie on or something in a bit. Seems like a good time to relax. :)

Dessimu: Looking forward to it ^u^
If I do get around to publishing one of them I'll announce it on the forum. :)

Stilton: I had a bit of fun today....

FearfulSymmetry: Dang, that's terrible. What an asshole. I hope you'll be able to find a better doctor who can help you.
Hi, FFS :-)

My doctor's good, I'm pretty sure she can find some kind of alternative before too long.

How are you doing these days, have your medical thingies been resolved and left you alone?

Arrogance always seems to be the most redeeming of traits among such doctors. Fortunately, they do seem to be the exception and not the rule, for the most part. I've had a doctor pull the combo of outright denying my obvious diagnosis and accusing me of being a drug addict, and one psychiatrist who told me I didn't need medication for schizophrenia, what I really needed was to be put in touch with "my people," who turned out to be the network of local psychics / new age healers. Quite flattering for sure, but maybe not what you should be telling a schizophrenic after a functional collapse. ;)

Sarge is still SuperSarge around these parts. He's the happiest living creature I know, and the only person I've met to get as excited as I do about simple things.
Him: new rope
Me: new headphone cable
both: flipping the f#*k out

He's out cold in his kennel at the moment. We just had another round of dancing and playing tug and fetch, and he's absolutely spent. I am too, now that I actually pay some attention. :)

I hope you are doing well, aside from the hernia and associated pains / frustrations!
