Strange Friday

Ok so this is being written on Saturday morning sue me. Today (Friday) was strange. Woke up bright and early this morning to scoot off to work by 7:30 or so. Instead my stomach decided to be very very queasy and I spend an hour debating calling in sick and then how long should I call in sick. I'm really decisive when it comes to my PTO. Eventually do call in sick and it proves a good call after my system manages to settle down I slumber uneasily til about 11 when I get up and feel good enough to put in a half day of work. Of course my schedule feels weird and ironically because I'm doing a half day I can leave almost as early as if I came in early. So I come home still half sick with an entire evening left to me. Everything just seems unbalanced when my schedule changes and I have nothing planned.

What was the point of this post, I dunno. I'm tired but I can't sleep. I want to read but I don't. I've gotten into Impossible Country which is good but a strange read. Yugoslavia is shooting up in my mind as a strange, strange country. It also strikes me as a major sign to come as an obstacle for a theoretical European federation.

My bookshelf is almost entirely full now. My grapic novels have displaced the board games and they don't even fit properly due to their generally larger then normal book size.

Anyone want to play in an Everquest pen and paper RPG game? I've got a pile of those books. I won them at PointCon, still debating how useful they are. Pretty complete collection tho.

I am thinking that this year is really the year of White Wolf RPG wise. All I am really doing is buying White Wolf: Exalted 2E, Scion (whence it comes out) and new World of Darkness (granted I'm up in the air about the new mortals books: Spirits and Urban Legends as there isn't much been said about them).

I'm also peering into Exalted 2E: Dragon-Blooded. It's strange here as they take a lot of what we know about the Exalted world from 1E and compress it into the core books. I suspect the first couple years will be doing that. They rather distill it all down into key points so at times it's a little sad but I suppose that just means new stuff sooner. One of the upcoming books is going to be on the First Age and that should be very interesting. Maybe a sort of off-shoot line like Dark Ages was to old World of Darkness? Doubt it but who knows.

Well this has doubtless gotten long and rambly so I'll call it quits for now.
