Howdy friends!

My old computer crapped out at the beginning of the month (admittedly less dramatic than the kaboom, more a loud never ending screech), my new one just got here.  Plus an entire boatload of personal, work, and health drama (my immune system hates me, and apparently a lot of my organs) have prevented me from playing.  I have a lot of stuff to catch up on, not to mention file transfers and all the headache that goes along with it, but look forward to playing with yall again soon! 

In the mean time, check out my awesome old lady plate wall I've been working on:



The oldest is a piece of shell-edged pearlware circa 1790, and the newest is a fancy platter that was made in 1905.  Now you know the depths of my obsession with historic pottery.  

So yeah, title says it all.  I've got to lurk here for the past few months a lot more than usual, thanks in part to a super awesome semi-vacation surgical recovery!  But now, I'm taking two courses at once in grad school, working 40+ hours, and an internship on my days off.  All my hard won social time is narrowing down to next to nothing in about a week when the homework escalates until the first week in May.  Overall, only about 6-8 weeks, but it still feels like forever.  I'll be around on Discord, Facebook, Skype, phone, all that fun stuff for everyone who has that contact info, feel free to poke me!  I may make the odd appearance in game and really hope that this trimester won't be the worst thing ever that leads to a lot of angry, tired, grumpy tears.

Heya friends!  It's been fun the last few days to have time to log on and hang out, I have sincerely missed it!  That being said, on the 30th I'll be having a fairly major surgery that's supposed to be awesomely painful (I'm having my tonsils out, plus some bone removed from my sinuses) as an adult.  I may not be on for a few days.  That being said again, still doing the grad school thing, so once the semester picks back up I may be a bit scarce as well.  As always poke me if you want to RP!

Welcome back!

Foxwife saw this and squealed "YES THAT IS OUR OFFSPRING!"

Ya did good Edge, ya did good.

I do not know why, but when I saw the title of you "doing the thing," my first response was...

"Did Goat decide to have a baby and is now pregnant?"

:-D

Because, that is also something else that eventually happens. People make posts about being pregnant. (I am not being creepy I swear!)

Best,
Arya

That's actually a plan sooner rather than later, haha.  Once Foxwife finishes her master's degree this fall, tiny screaming goatlings may be in the future.

This is good to know!

We did the thing!  What thing do you ask?  We bought a house.  Which means we will be moving.

But first, we have a lot of painting and some minor repair work to do.  I thought painting was easy. It's not. It's too much like work, and hard, and I get tired and then get cranky and then don't want to paint any more.

So basically, over the next month, spotty attendance and possibly falling asleep at the keyboard.  We don't plan on moving over until February, and then there's the entire "Hey Cable company people, can we has the internets please?  Soon? Because I have important gaming stuff to do."

But yes! Yay house!

I like to see who's online so I can pick what character to play and all that sort of thing.  I would not miss the log in server for this reason.

Forgot the customary Renaissance Festival picture of yours truly dressed as a satyr. (Surprise, surprise)

I went with an entirely blue scheme this year.

A dear, dear friend and long time DnD buddy of mine drew lots of Ox stuff for me for an early Christmas.  She is super awesome and has lots of work at facebook.com/sidhekatsoup

I must share the awesome. 

My name is Goat and I approve this message. (As a sexy Silverstar as well)

Going to be away from home all week for a work training thing!  Bringing my computer with me this go round, but not sure how well hotel internet is going to support playing!

Yes, glad to hear you're okay!  Irma was a beast!  We're feeling the edge of the winds here too.
