Gave Lena a new face yesterday, some much better equipment than what you normally find at the start of a game and went to town using Snit's "Gore mod". Dang that was fun! We went mushroom training on Sharkull's "My Test World" and now she is suddenly lvl 20 so we can soon take on those pillow fighters. Think I'm gonna do the rest of the training on the regular maps till I hit lvl 40 though. It gets a bit boring without the quests and the varying landscapes.

A few weeks ago, my father was at the doctor's office and it was found that he had some malignant spots on his face. So, a week ago he had them removed. It wasn't surgery, the malignancies were removed under local anesthetic in the office. One of them was a bit deeper rooted then they expected, but they were able to cut it away.

It is terribly disconcerting because my father is 78. My mother died several years ago of cancer and ours is not a big family. When my father goes, that leaves my sister and myself, and we aren't close. It is a weird feeling to think I'll be on "my own", even though I have been on my own since the age of 19. Death is inevitable, so there isn't anything I can do except learn to cope...and sometimes that is easier said than done.

I was at a flea market a few years ago, and had to purchase this little book. It is really (unintentionally) funny and an interesting look at social roles from 40 years ago. I had to type it in myself, it is so old and quite obscure I couldn't find it online to copy and paste from.

Unfortunately I think I picked the ugliest face (at close ups) to go with it. But nonetheless, this is Lena.

Now Forrester has some good company.

Kathy the malcontent. So, are you like me? Do things ever just make you miffed? Does the word "miffed" make you want to hurl? If you want to accentuate the negative (if only for a few minutes) then you picked the right blog for the job. Join me for a spot of tea and a rant session, won't you?

1.) The title of this blog. Ha ha, I am making a silly reference to a well known toy store in the United States. (Toys R' Us)
But let's consider this...R' business. Is it so incredibly hard to spell out the word "are"? Sure, "are" isn't eyecatching and zingy. Who cares? Just spell the freaking word right.

I was looking through the Skrit + Template Cross Reference made by frilly_wumpus and I can really recommend it for your modding as you are familiarizing yourself with the game's parts. Here's what it looked like when I was checking out the Necro Lithid.
