How are you doing?

Halloween is over, and Christmas is on its way. But first, it's time for a feast!

I remember you mentioning the van! I didn't know they had daughters.

Had a rough day driving?

(ID: 8cf962)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9786

>>9785 the one I've known longest has a daughter. I'm guessing she's about 20 now. she's having a kid with someone I'm told is a deadbeat gamer.
I wasn't out for long. but I finished the weekend promotion. I'm trying to catch up on trekville real quick. then I have to do laundry, and work on the site. and then start getting ready to leave in about 20 hours.
How's your day going?

(ID: a18b9f)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9787

>>9786
Now that I think about it, you mentioned her having a daugther before. You should call her grandma.

Anything good going on at trekville?

I'll start work in 30 minutese. I think there's a meeting or three this week; all in all I think it'll be better than last week.

(ID: 8cf962)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9788

>>9787 hah, she'll love that.
there's a big material spend competition going on that I'm competing in. hoping to place in the top 5. but I'm completely out of tritanium now, which complicates things.
have you heard back about the presentation from the rest of the council yet?

(ID: a18b9f)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9789

>>9788
How will you get the tritanium? I think the ship hulls are made of it in Star Trek.

There were still two approvals missing last I heard. And it's a time critical thing, so I have to chase them today.

(ID: 8cf962)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9790

>>9789 yeah I just upgraded a bunch of ships. I'll probably have to raid someone's base to get more. It's somewhat difficult to come by compared to other resources.
get those hand shakes!

(ID: a18b9f)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9791

>>9790
Take all the tritanium!

I'll do my best. I gotta start working now, have a nice night!

(ID: 8cf962)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9792

>>9791 good luck!

(ID: a18b9f)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9795

Are you almost ready to leave?

(ID: 8cf962)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9797

>>9795 not even close. I'm planning to leave in about 6 hours if all goes well. have to go start an oil change right now. hope your day went well!

(ID: a18b9f)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9800

>>9797
I hope you'll have a good trip! At least Munchkin will be along for the ride!

Drive carefully!

Oh wow, that sounds really bad just from the link - I cannot access it.

>>9797
I hope you have a safe trip!

⛵☎️ (ID: a6a631)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9807

>>9804 damn.
>>9805 thanks, I'm at the halfway point. Stopping for a nap. Have a nice day!

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9820

>>9807
I spent the afternoon with a friend, we played lots of Zelda and drank some whisky.

Hope you'll get there safely. Take good care of your pup!

⛵☎️ (ID: 867401)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9823

>>9820 drunk Zelda sounds like fun.
I'm at a Louisiana truck stop, just had lunch, and munchkins enjoying herself at the dog park. We're about to get back on the road.

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9826

>>9823
We made some progress too!

I hope you'll be at your family soon!

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9843

>>9826 how far into the game did you get?
I got in about 4 hours ago. We went to dinner, and my ninth grade creative writing teacher happened to be there and came up to talk to me. Our capstone assignment in the class was to "publish" a short story, and at a formal class event, we had to read an except of a short story to or classmates and their families. It was terrifying! 🤯 Good experience overall though.

About a third into the second quest of the original Zelda.

You had to read a story? Oh my - I wouldn't have liked that.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9849

>>9848 you've got that down to a science
Not just a story, the story that you yourself wrote.

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9850

>>9849
Absolutely! We spent so much time gathering 250 rupies to buy the Blue Ring.

Was your story popular? What was it about?

Work was a bummer again. That project we are working on is such an effort... The week cannot end quickly enough.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9852

>>9850 what does the blue ring do?
No, it was pretty dumb. I had gone on a long Boy Scout hiking trip the previous summer, and my short story was about a group of scouts doing the same hike but getting caught in the weather and some of them dying in the process. It was not a very well thought-out story.
Did you get all the approvals? Is this the same project or a new one?
I have to go run a bunch of errands for my mom. And then we're working around the house all day today.

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9853

>>9852
It halves the damage you receive.

Sounds like a 70s disaster movie.

Yes, I had all the approvals. But now a company cannot deliver on time, and legal issues came for another potential order. Everything for the same project.

Fun... nothing but work!

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9860

>>9853 that sounds like it would be very useful
Kind of, yeah, and with a non-resolution like a 70s disaster movie
Sounds like they need to pay you some more money!

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9862

>>9860
Has Munchkin been hanging out with the cat again?

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9864

>>9862 no, she's been locked up in my mom's office this whole time whole we've been working. We planted 5 wisteria plants today, cleaned a bunch of stuff inside, and sorted through some stuff. There's still a lot more left to do.
Hope you have a good night!

(ID: 06a1f5)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9865

>>9864
Those plants look very nice.

I hope you'll find some time to relax as well beside all that work.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9867

>>9865 we are still cleaning. The living room is finally almost done. We haven't even started on the kitchen. And all of this is to impress my step brother who cannot be impressed. Waste of time.
What's your day looking like?

(ID: 42cd5e)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9869

>>9867
Why the need to impress?

I have a long afternoon meeting, some lessons learned nonsense.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9870

>>9869 well, they want to pretend that they don't live in a complete pig stye. So if part of the house is clean or at least if the area that my step brother goes within the house is relatively clean, and they can pretend oh this is the normal part and the rest of it if he happens to see it is the exception. But like I said he's not going to be impressed anyway so it's completely waste of time.
Did the whole thing fall through? What are the lessons that people were supposed to have learned?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9874

>>9870
That... doesn't sound like too comfy a place. But be it as it may, those plants will look nice when they are blooming.

No, it didn't - but the timing is completely off now. Which isn't good. I had some urgent meetings because of it and actually missed the lessons learned - which I didn't mind at all.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9876

>>9874 most of the rooms are disgusting. Mostly thanks to their damn cats. That's why I'm sleeping on a cot in an office next door rather than staying in the house.
We planted most of the wisteria around the tower that I climbed and placed my step dad's weather device on top of. The idea is that the vines will creep up the tower!
Are you still going to get your Christmas bonus?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9877

>>9876
Makes sense, the cats can tear on wallpaper, carpets, everything... and leave their hair all over the place.

Sounds like a good idea! Is the weather thingy still working?

Oh, I got that already at the end of October. We always get it, it's the law!

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9878

>>9877 yeah I am not a fan of cats. Will other people's cats are mostly okay. But living with them...
Yep, still working! At some point the battery will die and I'll need to climb up and replace it.
Christmas bonuses are mandated by law? That's quite interesting. Is it really a bonus then?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9879

>>9878
I wouldn't want one in my home either.

A shame it doesn't have some solar panel to charge it.

No, it's called the 14th salary (with vacation money being the 13th).

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9880

>>9879 it actually does have a solar panel on it, but it isn't to charge the main battery. I think it runs a heater or something.
What are the other 12 salaries? Is it like second breakfast?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9881

>>9880
Hehe, well, it means twelve salaries - one for each month of the year - and a 13th and 14th extra for vacation and winter. And I get a 15th as company bonus.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9882

>>9881 sounds quite generous.
Think we're about to have dinner. Have a nice evening!

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9883

>>9882
It's how it should be!

Enjoy your dinner, I'll be off to bed soon myself.

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9897

I hope you're doing alright and that you'll have a nice weekend beside all the work.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9898

>>9897 Thank you; I think I slept for about 17 hours. I don't have too much cleaning to do today. But it's a pretty nasty area. How is your weekend looking?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9899

>>9898
17 hours? Wow, that's a lot!

I'm alright, spent the afternoon with a friend. Playing some Castlevania now to upgrade weapons again.

Got RPG tomorrow.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9901

>>9899 I hadn't really slept since I got here.
This whole Castlevania playing like an RPG concept is strange to me.
What's going on in the rpg?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9902

>>9901
Yeah, it started with Symphony of the Night - they are fun really. Drop rate of those souls sucks though. I'm killing the same guy already like 200 times, no soul.

More castle sieges.

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9903

>>9902 it's a game that ain't got no soul! Do you need that specific soul for a type of currency?
Have the enemies made it to the walls yet?

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9904

>>9903
I need specific souls to upgrade certain weapons. And some souls have like a 0.5 % drop chance.

They are in sight, so they are almost there.

Got any plans for the afternoon?

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9905

>>9904 whatever happened to the good old days of smashing candelabras and breaking bricks to find things in walls?
Prepare the defenses! To the parapet!
I finally have a few seconds to set up my computer. And a place to do it. But I'll probably have to move it again tomorrow. Aside from that, cleaning and whatever else my mom needs. If I have time, I'll try to do some work on the site.

(ID: 26c899)Country code: at, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9906

>>9905
Oh, you're still doing that! Got all the souls now that I could get.

I'm sure the heroes will do well.

Clean, clean, clean! I hope you can do some private stuff too!

I'm off to bed now, night night!

⛵☎️ (ID: 080ad4)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  9907

>>9906 they should hire you as a ghostbuster.
I guess the sooner it gets done, the sooner I can move on to doing other possibly more enjoyable things.
Sleep well!
