ddickinson: And we would not want that. So okay, use your new fangled electric one with all those safety features. :-)
Good idea. -laughs-

I'll just keep an eye on things so people aren't freaking out about it all. Dealing with someone on the verge of a panic attack over how the food's going to turn out kinda ruins the experience.

Don't be a fool Marshal! - Outlaws is just great :)

The soundtrack of that game is so fantastic :D
Good thing that the ingame one actually consists of .ogg files :)

Hey again everyone *big hugs and waves*

Edit: Forgot to mention the game xD

Good evening. =)

How's the night treating you?

I had better be getting some sleep (or at least trying to), I have (hopefully) a nice day at work ahead of me in the morning. Take care, and enjoy the classics we are supposed to be getting tomorrow!

*goodnight hugs and silly waves*

Trying to make dinner while procrastinating on finishing Lost Vikings. Exciting stuff, to be sure.

Sounds good :)
It's the Blizzard game - right? Why do you procrastinate on finishing it?

Mainly because the levels get annoying at the end. Spending over ten minutes an attempt hasn't been appealing today, so it's just been sitting.

ddickinson: Good evening, lovely thread!

I hope you are all doing well?

It seems I am still having some problems with my sleeping so I figured I would get to work on some notes for a few talks me and my partner have been asked to do on a few topics at a centre for young ladies who are not having the best of luck in their young lives. Plus I get to chat to you lovely people as well, which is always nice.

*hugs, waves, and milkshakes. Not handshakes, milkshakes.* :-)
Next thing you'll be telling us that your milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard.
Specially since they're made with real creamy farm milk.

ddickinson: Good evening.

We often try to help now and then. In fact I am still missing being able to do my volunteering at the childrens hospice like we used to every month. Although the kids did make me the most wonderful get well soon card that made me tear up so much due to their kind words. This one I am making notes for now is for abused women, well girls really. They are aged 16-19 and have not been having the nicest of times. The centre they are at helps them recover, get support, and hopefully get them back on their feet. It is a really nice place, and one that has helped a lot of ladies. A friend of ours works there and asked me and my partner to give a few talks and asked if we would share a few private things with them as some of them are in there due to abuse over their sexuality and a few other things. So hopefully we can help a few people. But the main talk is just about what we do for work and things like that, just to get them ready for being adults and things, so it is mostly just a casual talk and some question and answer things. But a few of the other topics are a little more intense.
That's fantastic. Also I might drop by one of those talks of yours. I'm already an old man and still have no idea what it's really like to be an adult.

CarrionCrow: Still can't complain here. Feels like my cold's trying to come back, but I'll drown it in vitamins. (And soda.) No big thing.
Beyond that, it's figuring out how to use the pressure cooker, since my roommate didn't want to spend hours cooking corned beef and cabbage in a pot on the stove.
I'll give you a crash course.
Step 1: Fill the pot with delicious ingredients, attach the lid and secure it, then put the pressure cooker on the fire.
Step 2: Secure a hardhat and a couple of sandbags to hide behind.
Step 3: THERE IS NO STEP THREE
Step 4: If nothing's exploded, congratulations, you've made a delicious meal. If not, you've made something ASPLODE. It's a win-win.

I think I remember reading about that game in a console magazine, back when printed media mattered. They mentioned some lemmings insipiration for the game in the review.
I kinda wish I still had those magazines, they're a nostalgia fueled trip down to childhood lane.

Sorry for the late reply Crow and EIT, but thanks for the kind words. I'm little to no anxious now. :)

It's okay, no need to apologize. Stuff comes up, can't expect a person to be sitting at a computer at all times. Just glad you're feeling better. =)

CarrionCrow: Eh...sleep's overrated. Most of the time, it doesn't feel like I slept much at all anyway. Might as well stay up.

Thanks to the wonderful time limit, you probably won't have a chance to respond.
Have a pleasant, peaceful day, Zen lady. =)
Hi Crow, hope you are surviving the pressure cooker experience, and eating good food. I knew a professional chef who was badly burned when his cooker exploded, so I stay well clear of them. But you sound very calm and experienced about it all. ;-)

Laughing about your attitude to sleep. But it does help to heal you when you're not doing too well, so I hope you get some rest after your exertions.

It's a sea of grey out there, hope everyone is sleeping peacefully, or gaming happily. I wonder if my post will post today before I have to leave...
Thought I'd come in earlier for a change, to allow extra time for GoG delays. Don't want to turn my downloader off if I can avoid it, but it does make things here veeeerry slooowww..

zeogold: Every time I'm just about to say hi to you, you disappear.
Criminy.
Hi zeo, sorry I keep missing you. I'ts not intentional, I assure you. :-)

Did you solve the pi puzzle I left for you?

Good morning. =)

It does still make me a bit nervous, but I don't use it very often. The food ended up not being very good, but given that the recipe used wasn't even for a pressure cooker in the first place, it still could've been worse.

No need to worry, I'll end up crashing out eventually whether it visibly helps or not. Not really staying up for days like I used to, presumably due to general fatigue.

I'm sorry, your post hasn't completed yet. I'm only able to read it due to psychic ability. (Yes, I'm reading your mind. Be afraid...;) )

I hope you're having a pleasant enough morning so far, with a nice big cup of coffee to start things off. =)
