I'm sorry to hear of that suckage, it really is hard to believe no one would go after you and at least talk, I would have.

That's awful, Kari. You said you don't feel like talking to her, but it could help to tell her (and whoever else is involved) how much her (/their) comments hurt you and ask for an apology. That's what I would do at least — then again whenever I get in a fight with somebody I tend to avoid them for a bit and then confront them about what happened once emotions have cooled off.

Also, let them know you enjoy(ed?) being a part of their game and that it's not cool for them to crap on your character. At the very least, tell them to give fair and constructive critiques instead of across-the-board dismissals (if that's what's going on).

Apologies if you've thought of this already. I just wanted to throw my two cents in.

it's all good, and i talked to Arty about it (she's been real flightly lately so it's hard to pin her down). seems she thinks i HAVEN'T been replaced (though we mysteriously gained a bard?), nothing SUPER-important happened in the D&D game and she was enjoying the Changeling game so my sister WAS lying/glazing over the truth. still, i think i'll end it, since if it's going to cause this much of a stink i'd rather just pull the plug than fight it. it's exahusting.

as for the whole "Molly Sucks" campaign, i think they mostly do it in jest, but it's still pretty annoying since i'm basically the only one that gets it. Sure, her Strength score is in the toilet, but she's a goddamn Rogue, Dexterity is her top priority. Strength was the dump stat for me because, frankly, i didn't really need it as much as the others as a Rogue. i'd rather have the Dex to pick the lock and the Cha to charm the guard than the Str to break the bars.

i'm gonna tell Arty to tell Alex to prepare Shadowrun. i just hope shit doesn't get more awkward from here.

Hope it goes well :\

In other news, pissed off severely that the mug I ordered from the Valve Store was broken in shipping, and of course they had to make it as hard as possible to request an exchange (You need to register for their Support Center to be able to file a claim for a return; which is, of course, separate from your Valve Store and Steam accounts for no conceivable reason). Hopefully I can get this straightened out >_>;

Honestly, I think I would have been better off buying it on eBay for more than double the price of it from Valve; as then, if something goes wrong, it's a lot easier for me to file for an exchange or refund.

I'm currently fighting with my parents in order to be able to use my graduation and personal money to book a flight to Oregon over the summer. My mother is fully in the know, but my dad insists on being a pigheaded fuck and just counteracting every argument I make with the threat to cut my internet. I'm just another fucking twerp to be dealt with.
What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's an oyster with two figures of your favorite Touhou characters. Look again, the figures are now vials of the Hourai Elixir. Anything is possible when your waifu smells like Old World and not a man. I'm a frog.

what is his problem with the whole thing, anyway....?

I ordered Attack on Titan headphones yesterday.

One word: Fuck. Just, fuck.

Not just a thunderstorm, but a severe thunderstorm with potential flooding rolls in this morning. 2k's external drive is plugged straight into the wall with no surge protection whatsoever because there's no space on the main one and the secondary one stopped working. So, I got up and tried to go over to grandma's office in the pouring rain to unplug...and before I even get 1\8 there, the windshield wipers on the van completely break, as I have to turn around  and crawl back home with visibility being minimal at best. So, now I'm stranded here until the rain lets up and hoping that hard drive doesn't get fried because that's the one with all of my pics and, most importantly, my stories (I do have a backup of my stories on a flash drive here at the house, but it's a few months outdated).

There goes any plans to talk to the hospital about a job today, and if the rain doesn't let up anytime soon, probably no Portal as well.

@Pent: Really now? That's a coincidence...

Two hours ago I left my home to go buy myself Pokémon Y (at the store) and a 3DS (second-hand a bit outside the city center). I get outside and start rolling toward the store, all is fine except a few drops here and there. I get to the store and buy my game, no problems. I roll down to the bank to get cash...suddenly a gust of wind blows half the street away, and the fountain starts spitting water halfway across the street. Five minutes later, the sky falls down on me.

Fortunately the family I was buying the console from were nice enough to lend me a towel and some bags for the console, and I stayed indoors to wait out the worst of the storm (which lasted about 30 minutes give or take). Still...the skies are strange.
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

I feel kinda bad, because it's absolutely roasting out here in London.

@Nej: Strange :\
(Also, I need to get back to Pokémon X -w-; )

The rain has let up for now, and my sister was able to transport me to grandma's office to unplug my drive, although I'm waiting to make sure everything is clear (Or mom to get off work so I can borrow the Ramcharger) before I take the van up to grandma's office; don't want to get caught in the rain if I don't have windshield wipers

Bella

Be careful Pent!

Also sucks about the storm. I hope your external drive is okay. :(

i'm actually rather frustrated because it's NOT raining here. it's been saying it'll rain for days, and it did a little bit this morning, but not enough to clean off my car completely.

my dad said that it's supposed to go all chicken little later tonight, but i don't trust it, so i'll probably take the hose to it tomorrow. i would have today were it not for schrodinger's downpour.

@Bella: I can report my drive is safe, thankfully
(Maybe if the weather doesn't suck, we can try again to Portal tomorrow night if I feel up to taking 2k back up there)
