Good morning, lovely people of the thread of Fred!

I hope you are all doing good, or at least as well as can be expected?

*big happy hugs and silly waves*


I once got my hair completely shaved off for charity (the hair was used to make wigs for cancer patients who had lost their hair during chemotherapy). It took some time for it to grow back (I normally have quite long hair), but I got used to it after a little while. I am sure you still look absolutely lovely with short hair, and who knows, maybe over time you will start to like it. Plus it gives you a change to see your hair at different lengths as it grows back, so you will know what kind of length suits you the next time. Failing that, a cute hat sounds like a great plan, I know I had a few while my hair was growing back. So try not to feel too upset of self-concious. Your hair will grow back, and even if you don't like it short it will be an experience (which is what life is about) and after a few months things will be back to how you like them.

Hey there, DD! :-)
*Big return hug* Good to see you. I'm guessing that the "happy hug" means you are doing alright?

Hello, Mr Agent, owner of the awesome new avatar! (Great job, as always, talented Mr Agent.) *big hug*

No, can't say I am doing alright. I would say more like good, or even great. :-)
Things are still not too good, but taking a break from a few things and spending some lovely time with my partner has really helped me clear my head a little and I am feeling quite good as a result.

How are you? I hope you have all been behaving while I was away? Did I miss anything fun?

P.S. Today is a special day. Leap Year!

*big hug*

*blushing* B") ... *big thank you hug*
Oh, well that is very good to hear! Glad you are feeling better :-) ... and I have some flamethrowers standing by for the rest.
I'm doing okay... a few little things bothering me, but nothing too serious. Just some random worries and a sensitive stomach. Otherwise, I'm doing well, smiling, and being a well-behaved Agent :-)
You missed... well... Fearful and our Empress met each other (you might not have missed that)... There have been a couple of video chats... We got some more in-dev games (Master of Orion for quite a hefty price)... The weekend promo is quite nice, even though it started on Wednesday o__O ... and... Happy Leap Day to you too :-)

*big return hug*

Sorry to hear things are bothering you a little. Anything I can do to help?
*places a pile of "random" paper in front of Agent and his flamethrowers* :-)

So I missed quite a few things then. But as long as you are all doing okay and have been behaving yourselves. But you could have at least kept the thread tidy. :-)

Do any of the new games catch your eye?

*big leap year hug*

Good morning folks *big hugs and waves*

How are you all doing?

Hmmm... *thinking* ... Unless you have a lifetime supply of Côte d'Or, tickets to a private Ben Folds Five concert, and a cake with a Sigourney popping out of it, then I don't think there is much else to do :-p

Hey, it's not our fault the thread is a mess. Without the girls around, us guys don't need to impress anyone, so we get lazy n__n

Master of Orion catches my eye, but at that price, and being in-development, I will stay away from it. Stardew Valley interests me a bit. It looks relaxing and kinda fun, but I'll wait for a couple reviews (ElT's in particular) and maybe a discount :-)
Good morning, T of El. *big hug with some arms*

Doing okay here... How's Monday treating you so far?

Hello, ELT!

How are you today?

I had all of them, but I let ELT look after them, and he forgot where he left them. So blame ELT for no private concert of Sigourney cake. :-)

I see, so that explains all the porn magazines and empty beer bottles scattered all over the place. :-)

Some of the new games do look fun, and I was tempted to get Stardew Valley for my partner, but I will have a closer look at the game later. I have been told it is quite good, you can even have same sex relationships in the game apparently, which is something Harvest Moon never allowed. Apparently it improves several things, streamlines them, and adds a few other things. And it seems to be a game made by one developer, which is impressive.

Hey Agent *big return hug*
Good to here - it's basically the same for me. Nose is free and i'm not coughing that often anymore :)

Hi DD *big hug*
I'm okay - still recovering from my danish cold - how are you doing?

You and your colds. :-)

I hope you will feel better soon, and at least winter is near and end, so hopefully your colds will take a break for a while. *feel better soon hug*

I am doing good, thank you.

Well, I don't drink beer... I know that ElT does, so I guess this mess is his second fault of the day :-p He is dangerously close to earning a first-class, all-expenses-paid trip to the oubliette >;-)

I keep hearing Stardew being compared to Harvest Moon... and I have no idea what that is :-p I guess I don't love games as much as I thought I did :'-| ... In any case, Stardew appears to have farming and fishing, which are two things that I enjoy doing in games :-)

Well that particular cold wasn't a surprise after i had cold feet multiple times in Copenhagen after my warm shoes were unusable....
Thank you - well it should be gone soon *big thank you hug*

Glad to hear that :)

Hey Hello DD !! :))
Glad to see you back here !
**Big hug**

So you deny the beer but not the porn... interesting. :-)

I have not really played Harvest Moon, but my partner likes those games. But they do have their faults, which this game seems to try to improve on and add to. When I first saw it I thought GOG was allowing RPG maker games on here, but apparently the one developer made all the graphics and things from scratch.

*big hug*

Are you at least over the worst of it now? *big hug*

It's about gogdamn time!! That's good to hear!
*continued healing hug*
