I was all set and ready to do parkrun today... Until about 7PM when my eyes spontaneously crunchified and my nose began running like a gorram tap.
Yes folks, I once again have Lurgi. Replete with the wonderful world of digestive issues. Yay. Not.
So today I am focussing on achieving bodily stability whilst also working on bread. Because I also need to make bread this weekend.
Offerings soon. Attempts at project maybe. Farting around for sure.
Hefting yet another box of books outside and leaning against a sore back.
"This would be so much easier with magic"
[Wraithvine shows up] "Someone say magic?"
"You don't mind helping clean a library?"
[Wraithvine with a grin] "Libraries are my favorite places to relax."
"Great, grab a box" -- Anon Guest
[AN: Wraithvine's a lot more subtle than that, lol]
Moving a library is difficult business. It has to be done when the old library runs out of room or falls
Read more »I might have two breakthroughs. Working at the Gamemaker issue from two sides. On one side, the web install and the community help, on the other - the Steam version and its virtual Windows drive.
Maybe approaching it from two directions will box the dang thing in and keep it still so I can work on it.
Fingers crossed.
I had to wait for better internet to get one potential fix done. I'm waiting on feedback for the other side. And a

My puppy is obsessed with playing ball.
"Oh, it can't be that bad."
Fine, puppy-sit and I can take a nap.
---next day----
"Your puppy is obsessed with playing ball!"
See? I told you. I love it, but man, I sure get tired. -- Anon Guest
They were thinking about calling the puppy The Unstoppable Force. He certainly never seemed to stop whenever someone was observing him. People, according to Blot the Dog[1]
Read more »So once again, I've hit a wall in trying to make Pseuducku exist. I can't make the program I'm using to make it do one thing I need to do in order to test whether or not the thing I made works.
Sigh.
I tried asking for help in the community and... the community has no help for me.
My options at this point are:
So, kid, you want to fight this old devil to see if I still have skills? You sure? Well I'm slowed with age, but sure I'll humor you. But remember, you did challenge me, not the other way around. Still, you did ask politely, so I won't be - too - rough. -- Anon Guest
After he turned one hundred and seven, Kosh routinely wore his hakama because it was easier to don. His ageing hands were tired of buckles and his

And then it didn't happen. Yay.
So now I'm back onto my offerings for the day after taking due care of myself for the day. Betting a dollar that the actual thing will be happening in the afternoon despite the notification about ten.
I'll get that unriddled one way or another if/when it happens.
I need to focus. And

The old joke goes that you need a polycule just to survive in this economy. It's funny because it's true. You would not believe how much we save by buying in bulk and pooling our incomes.
As for sleeping arrangements - that's none of your diddly-dang business. All you need to know is that
Read more »So here's an update on my daily shenanigans and what passes for my schedule.
Mayhem's permanently signed up to the evening shift so, on Crunch Days, he could plausibly be working between midday and eight at night. Because Mayhem wants to be there an hour in advance, I'm driving at ten.
I have a lot of the morning to get my writing into gear, do my stretchies, and otherwise maintain my meat suit.
And that means I have my afternoons to attempt

Just because they were now an adult did not mean they were not their family's child. Looking sorrowfully upon the asker, they stated, their voice straining with pain. "In the end, almost all of us will end up orphans one day." -- Anon Guest
Lorin stared at the names on the memorial. How

For those of you just here for the stories, here's what you missed:

Curiosity got the better of some who snuck to the polity to the surprise it was cleaner than most, and the people.. while not exactly treated like gold, were also not treated as though they were lower than animals either. Then they heard the tale from one individual, of how the CEO's cared enough to sacrifice their own comfort, to care for others when those others were in
My site is back up! Yay.
My internet is down. Boo.
I'm currently able to send this because phone data works with my laptop.
So. For those of you who missed the updates on my other places, the list of tales you missed before today:
It's only two, but at least they're readily accessed. I will be tagging this blog entry as Instant Story. For the archive.
I'll be posting the daily
Read more »I have excercises this week. Pedalling an invisible bike against the floor for two minutes, and stretching my calves for thirty seconds, twice each leg.
Which I have to do twice a day. Tonight, when I'm prepping for bed, I'll begin with the evening set. Tomorrow, before parkrun, I'll be doing the morning set.
That's the PLN. Morning set, evening set.
I'm going to be working on my offerings and waiting for Mayhem to let me know if/when he's ready for
Read more »I needed all of Sunday to recover from parkrun, but I managed my morning regime before it was time to do the runaround for Mayhem.
I might spare myself some aggravation and go do the shopping before I settle myself into making today's offerings. It needs must to be done and then I have less to fret about on Tuesday. Because Tuesday has become more crowded than expected! Huzzah.
The Sullage people, as I mentioned, are having a look at the system
