Work was particularly icky today, since I had to go in at 4am, check till 6am, do accounting till 8am, and somehow get done with over two hours of payroll work by 10am. Needless to say, I wasn't done upstairs until around 11am, by which point I didn't get to take my lunch (I was stressing about trying to get it in today, since we are supposed to take our lunches now, but the manager didn't seem to worry about it today).
After work, though, things picked up. I ran another Castles & Crusades (C&C) game for my buds, and it went great. I know I could have planned a bit more (I had time), but they loved it anyway. The only real combat was a mountain lion that threatened the klutzy (Non-Prime 8 Dex) cleric, and they ran it off before it hurt him (though the mountain lion was hurt pretty bad.. given that it could have eaten them, I suppose it'll be okay).
The most action occurred when the crazy fisherman on the dock, who lost his boat and dog 10 years ago to a "river kraken", thought he'd finally caught the kraken. Up until then, he''d throw back anything good he caught, complaining that "the dern fish are etin' mah bait". Yep, that accent, too. :) When he thought he'd caught the kraken, Elnarion and Tom wound up in the water. Elnarion hooked the fisherman's hook on Tom's belt, and yanked. The fisherman recruited Barros, the cleric, to help reel in the kraken. When the fisherman saw it was Tom, he yelled "you et mah bait!" and threw him back in the water! :)
Well, I have work in the morning, but THANK GOD, it's not until 6am. I'm so danged sick of going in at 4am, I could scream. Oh, and tomorrow's overtime. Yay for paid holidays! :)
(In other news, I've not even LOGGED into WoW since I began posting in here, and I don't know how much I miss it anymore. I have time for other things, like making dinner, making my bed, folding clothes, reading, planning RPGs... the list goes on and on. Oh, and of course, watching some Heroes! ^_- )
