Ugh. Is it normal for a hangover to last three days? I can't remember the last time that getting my drink on wrecked me this bad.

I must say, godlings. You're getting entirely too complacent. Too comfortable. Even altering your powers has done little.

I think I know what you're missing. What you've been craving. A good antagonist! An excuse to fight and shed and spill blood. Need I find your oldest enemies again? Consider it done. Give them a few days before they choose to show themselves properly, but I'm sure you'll know what to do.

So, do Gaia's team building exercises usually leave you feeling out of sorts? I'm having to ask, because this is the first time things aren't working the way they normally should.

Current Mood: aggravated

I must say that I'm not usually one for headgear, but this tiara I found... well, not only do I think I look rather au courant in it, but it feels most pleasurable to wear as well. I could get rather used to this.

Now if I could only figure out the answer to 48/2(9+3)...

I will make this brief. I do not know whom you people believe you are, but know this: I have influential friends, substantial resources, and a vindictive streak a mile wide. I will find you and will find a way to make you suffer for this bothersome inconvenience if you do not cease immediately. Consider this your only warning.

So I realized Halloween is in, like, a week. Anyone have any fun costume ideas? I'm thinking of going as a cation, with cat ears and a black shirt with a big white plus sign on it. I guess most people won't get it, but I sort of like the idea anyway.

What's everyone else thinking of dressing up as?

Hey guys, I'm pretty sure I'm ready to run initial beta tests on the combat simulator. Anyone up for being my guinea pigs?

STOP

Hey. The email wouldn’t go away, so I logged into the network. I get it. I get what you’re trying to do and I already remember, but I don’t really do fan clubs, so you can stop now.

How do I go about unsubscribing from this little family?

[A bad night; the shaking and sweating were worse than usual. And the mortal liquor just wasn't cutting it any more. He picked up his phone and called the only one he knew that might be able to help.]

[With trembling fingers, he slowly typed out the message, pausing every so often to correct the worst of his typing errors.]

Hey.

I think I need help. I've been really thirsty lately.

I mean like REALLY thirsty. Never been like this before.

Any ideas?

Well, if you wanted to get my attention, you sure picked an annoying interesting way of doing it. Can the emails stop now? My poor inbox thanks you.

No love,
Ric.

I am not paying exorbitant rates to get internet out here in the middle of nowhere just so I can get spam email. If replying to it is the only way to get them to stop, fine. If whoever is sending them is reading this, then kindly unsubscribe me and go fuck yourself.

Circumstances have arisen, godlings. I need you up to the challenge.

Shadows have moved and struck in the dark. We were unable to catch them before it was too late. The ones responsible are known as the Sluagh. This was not our doing, and we will exact our punishments, of that you can be certain.

The realm beyond the Veil is not one we touch, however. The Courtly Queens must lead this chase. You do not need me to tell how vitally important is that we get them all back. Do not lose yourselves in the process.

Oh, gods.

What's the point? Of anything?

Today it rained. I was sitting on the steps as it did. I didn't even move.

This is the tenth bottle of liquor I've had today. They might as well have been filled with that same rain that fell on me.

The rain washes away. It washes our tears away into the ocean. So every time you go swimming, you're soaking in everyone's tears.

Think about that. Oh, did I ruin everyone's summertime beach fun? Well, too bad! Life isn't fair! If life was fair, roses wouldn't have thorns!

I can't. I just can't any more.

So, having two Muses to watch the kids, I was finally able to do some real sniffing around for our center. Literally. I was in wolf form.

It's definitely Rainier. I checked the nearby Mount Olympus. Apparently, that would be too obvious. The entrance smells odd, though. It's guarded by... something. Something wild. And... it smells faintly of salt. No idea why.

Oh, wow! So I don't know what's going on here but I started getting this email over and over again which usually means the email goes into the spam account but it didn't this time so I opened it. Every single email is the same and they weren't things like "money for widows" or "penis enlargement" or "Who's Who Book" or Match.com. (Which I swear I never signed up for but they send me things, anyway.)

But I figured I should check this place out. If it's somewhere I shouldn't be, well, that's when a hard-drive crash comes in handy!

Hello out there in the interweb void! I'm Javi.

OK... It's after sunset. Happy Purim to all the Jews out there. This is also the one holiday where my people are religiously mandated to get blackout drunk. Seriously. So, if anyone needs me before Monday, well, I make no guarantees I'll be coherent or remember anything from it.

Ah, Valentine's Day. I do have a soft spot for it-- young couples toasting with their glasses of champagne at romantic dinners, the singles seeking Lethe in their own bottles... maybe I'm really an old softie, but it fills me with joy.
Plus it starts the countdown to my birthday, so, you know, there's that too.

Anyway, here's to the day, here's to me, and here's to us all. Stin iyiamas!

Spam blocker, my ass Not entirely sure I should be posting on a message board that an email with the aura of a Hitchcock film surrounding it sent me to, but I'm kind of afraid of what will happen if I don't. wouldn't be the first What is this all about?
