The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

Evening folks ... am at a friends house and typing on one of those beautiful grape iMacs. Man I love these computers. Pity they did not keep the design.

Anyhoo - how are things with you all?

Hey, Myc. Whats up. I'm good!

Well ... I found out at 3 pm that I had been scheduled to give a public presentation at 7 pm tonight, and had been scheduled to do so for months!

So I crammed the material, rushed off, gave the presentation, which went pretty well (man - did I ever WING it) and am spending the night here in town because I have to give another presentation tomorrow at 9 am or so.

This latter one I knew of, though. It is to a kindergarten class! It should be loads of fun.

Hehe. Weird stuff. One time I was hosting a game session until one of the players called me to ask if it allright if they brought their kids. Now, that was a winged seesion.

One nice thing is that the people who I am staying with have a hot tub. I think I might go in for a nice long soak. Sigh ... I haven't had a "relax" like that since brontosaurs were still wandering the earth....

And tomorrow morning for breakfast - raisin toast! YAY! Definitely one of my favorites.

Yeah. I can't remember the last time I got a nice soak, it must have been a couple of years now at least.

Way back when my folks used to purchase a professional full body massage for me for my birthday. I still remember the hour long agony of my first one. Although let me tell you I slept one of the most refreshing naps I ever slept after it was over. MAN! Did it hurt. But it felt wonderful afterwards ... probably because the guy had stopped! Haven't had one of those in almost 20 years either.

Ah well. No complaints. Guess it makes you appreciate them more when something unexpected comes around, eh? Like the hot tub!

So ... what have you been up to of late Frukathka? Haven't heard from you in a few days. Things are well with you?

Man this iMac is sslllloooowwwwwwwww....

A multitasker it definitely is NOT.

G3 333mhz with 96 mb of RAM. Man ... I remember when these things sold for $800 or so!

Now it's slow to the point of absurdity. Just to load a a linked page in enworld takes a minute or so. Every single time!

Ah well ... not like I'm going anywhere.

Sure limits web browsing to other sites, though....

 

[Mycanid]

What am I? The entertainment?

Guess that makes me the weird alien behind the bar, eh?

Sleeping during the day, surfing the boards at night, sporadically working on my homebrew and watching The Lost Room.
