UPDATE: Survived Snowpocalypse… barely.

I first want to apologize for any grammar or spelling mistakes that Microsoft Word doesn’t catch as I write this, as I have enough Hydrocodone in me to tranquilize a small elephant… thanks to the round of snow we got over the weekend.

We all knew it was coming, having friends who are extreme weather chasers and have access to their equipment and data, I knew it a week a head of time… still, what was supposed to be 3-6 inches ended up being almost 10 inches and suddenly the neighbors were no longer laughing at me for having as large of a snow thrower that I have… regretfully, however, the task of 3 of us working together to try and rid ourselves of it (while it changed over to drizzling, freezing rain) still took us almost 4 ½ hours to clear from our drives and walks.

For those that are really good friends with me know that I’ve been putting off my next round of back surgery, going to try and wait till October or November to have it done… between the two kidney stone surgeries (likely caused by all of the pain meds I have to take causing the kidneys to not flush right) and the wife’s hysterectomy and my lack of productivity on the game last year, the LAST THING I want right now is to suffer even more financially around here and force all of you to wait even longer on product… so I intend to put it off for as long as I can.

If the wife had her way, she would’ve taken me in to the hospital Saturday night because I was BAD… the left leg and other parts of me not working right… that sort of stuff.

Thankfully, she agreed to give the meds time for them to do their job and not take me in as long as I promised to “sit on the couch and don’t move”… so I avoided that hospital visit, but it also means that I didn’t get crap done this weekend like I wanted.

The swelling and bruising is significantly less right now, so going to take it easy for the day (plus I am still doped right now), but will hop back onto the Lynara/Jamima scene and try to finish that up this week… then all I need to do is edit the credits to thank all of you who’ve stuck around and supported us and do the BRIEF Karma scene that will be at the end of that and my role in the REMASTER will be done, except for some minor fixes that may need to be done on my part.

Anyhow, I need to go back and lay down for a bit… I apologize to those who I’ve not responded to yet, particularly the beta testers and those that were counting on me being around this weekend… sorry. 

I hope that you all had a better weekend than me (short of being set on fire and used as an archery dummy, I am sure you did have a better one than me), thank you for your patience and I will update and talk to you soon!
