Hello Everyone!
I'm back to life, for the most part, School's settled down such that I should be able to start posting again, but probably not such for a PbP again quite yet (especially looking at my track record for completed games), just wanted to pop in and say hi, and share a couple stories from Cross Country if you're bored and want to hear about some random high school cross country season and the (mis)adventures therein.
[sblock=story]
So our coach this season liked to make us run for a set amount of time (usually 45 minutes) so we would usually go down the street from our school to a place we call Narnia, which is basically a small patch of woods in the city that's just big enough to lose your sense of direction in, with a stream running through a couple different places.
So we head to the place, usually we didn't do anything there and would try to dam up the river, which probably didn't help our running, but the team went to State anyway so I guess it didn't make that much of a difference. Anyway, we go there and since it was late august at the time and was about 85 degrees, we decided that we would go running through the river, which had a few little cement dams, but a shallow bottom that came a little ways up the calf, so we start running down the river, and we get to a dam that's deep enough that we can't see the bottom, my friend went over it first, but I was just enough behind that I couldn't stop, and we both go into the water, which is about four feet deep at this point and go under completely (as we tilted when our foot went down) then, as I try to get out of the river (which has cement on the sides at this spot) I try using my knees to climb, and end u scraping my leg on the cement, and the water from the river ended up making the blood run more, so I had this big trail of blood running partway down my shin when I ran in, and my coach was going to kill me for doing something stupid, but I ran well in the race the next day, so he didn't really care.[/sblock]
[sblock=story 2]
On another one of the runs, we had to go across the train tracks to get to a big park with a hill we had to run up and down, so a train is coming, my friend gets across before me, then I get across, about 5 seconds before the train got there, which was about as close as one should EVER try to cross a train track with an oncoming train without being suicidal. Also, on the same run, we broke off into the park on a trail that goes off the sidewalk just before the main park itself, so we usually go there on runs to the park, and on that run we found a couple of branches that looked like assault rifles, and snuck around with them, and then named the trail "the black ops trail"[/sblock]

I think you have too much time on your hands!

I probably do, but, being a senior I have to be lazy, and most of my time gets spent either playing Skyrim in class (Awesome game BTW), getting my laptop taken away for the day and then outlining adventures, or else spraypainting some of my nerf guns (I found actual camouflage spraypaint at Lowes so that's cool), or working on my Senior Project, which will no longer be a valid excuse not to do stuff after May 18.
If you guys really want me to run another game I will, but I can't guarantee it will finish, and it'll probably just die about halfway through.
[sblock=Skyrim-don't read this if you don't want to]
So my friends are pretty confused as to why/how I play, I have a level 16 argonian and have not yet completed the first quest. The reason for this is, I killed all of Riverrun after getting there, at least the people I could kill, and then I moved to Whiterun, found out that there are guards there, and then proceeded to pickpocket everyone I could, which cost me a lot of money at first but now my pickpocket is level 80 and I have a 100% chance of stealing every time I try, so that's been good, and I recently downloaded a mod that kills a guard whenever he says "I used to be an adventurer like you but (wait for it) I took an arrow to the knee" so I've been running around indirectly killing all the guards in whiterun after I pickpocket them, the resulting problem in this is that if I kill somebody or break into their house, inevitably the whole town gets mad at me and I need a guard to arrest me before they calm down, the only problem is that I killed most of the guards, so I've just been leaving my horse at the outside of town so I just run that way as fast as I can, hop on my horse and ride away from town as quickly as I can, then come back when the people aren't upset, seeing as I've taken all of the jarls stuff, i should probably actually do the quests and get on with the story, but in the meantime I'm enjoying being the most awesome criminal dressed as a whiterun guard (I take their stuff after they die and usually sell it but I took the stuff from one and put it on, so I feel so much worse when I stab someone in the back with my sword that I took from a guard)
Thus ends my story of skyrim[/sblock]
