My head hurts (oh yes, a new storm coming in), the internet connection I'm forced to use sucks (it's so bad, I can barely watch ANYTHING-lots of long pauses, lots of reloading, it's just crazy making; I want my own connection back yesterday), and I'm getting over the sick and dealing with the SAD. Last week was okay until...late Thursday? I'd been ( Read more... )

Yesterday ended up kinda sucking. After a strong start before I went to bed, things kinda fell apart after. I'm really hoping the tireds and headache are a result of my SAD issues, the weather, and from not taking my meds the day before.

... but she swallowed her panic. Her wards would keep out all but the most powerful ferals. If tripped, they'd make enough noise to have Ms. Coler call. Panic still tremored in her voice. "I destroyed one of its servants a few days ago, and now it's killed close to my home, someone I know ( Read more... )

"I know him. He's the gardener for our complex." She stared at the rune. "What's this?"

"Something you don't know? I'm shocked," he said dryly. She bit her tongue over her irritation as he continued, "It's a rune of warning. Says to stay away."
