May. 17th, 2005 11:28 pmIn the wake of yesterday's locked post, the piggies are cleaned, watered, fed, and thoroughly not happy that they had to go back in their respective cages. My dressing table has been converted into a pet store in microcosm; when I look over there there's a wall of beady little piggie eyes that look back at me. In the right light, it's downright creepy. :p
I've got the floor cleaned up for the bulk of the room, including a couple of the hard/nigh impossible spots. I need to tackle the ness atop my entertainment center, since about a quarter of the stuff on my desk and the other dresser needs to go there. Then I'll be able to finally put the rest of this room to rights. It doesn't address the 'real' problems, but it does accomplish useful things. Crys will likely be coming by tomorrow after she gets off work, which means I'll manage to get quite a bit more done; I stay focused when she's around, rather than drifting off into space. Part of what needs doing tomorrow is shifting this desk to give me access again to the power strips... running a mesh of cables waist high across the middle of the room is NOT conducive to the healing of limbs. Trust me on this one.
So I'm alive and have gotten something accomplished today. I'm now going to re-immerse myself in my game - given the mission/quest oriented nature, it's a good stepping stone to being functional in roleplay again. RO was simply mindless levelling... not the most directed of activities.
Anyway. 'night.
