@DW: Glad to hear you have found P:T, it is a very good game although it unfortunately have a negative effect of one's productivity!
@BS: Knowing I have a lot of work to do, I haven't even started on IWD II and NWD yet - the hubby is playing both Morrowind and NWN, I haven't even looked at them. Maybe next week...
@Z: What is Lionheart?

My God, is my future that loaded up as well? and to top it all off, the NFL starts back up in less than 2 months.

@CE
It's a game from the guys that made Fallout (I think). A hybrid of magic in a historic period (apparently Ponce de Leon has magic at his disposal). Correct me if I'm wrong guys.....
. To tell the truth I'm not quite sure. I haven't researched it that much.

@CE, I know the feeling....I don't even want to think about classes this semester.....I am gonna have to be disciplined.

Aye, me too....I've got 3 books to crack, and I haven't started.....this computer is going to be the end of me
. School *is* going to be killer.
@Bloodstalker
For me it's the Hockey season that's going to start in a couple of months, and that's going to be a hella big distraction.

*sigh* discipline....and productivity are just not my strong points these days...but I am endeavouring to achieve balance...I am even considering playing a druid in NWN

well, that is as good a reason as any to play it.
And besides, Ysh and Gwally will be happy.

lol! You mean because I have druidic aspirations?
In Gwally's case he would just have nefarious motivations

Back again.
If your looking for discipline ask me, CE can confirm im a true master in that area.
Nice to see you again DW, I thought you were ill or something..

@Z: Thanks for explaining.
Re: Discipline - I haven't done anything useful at all today, although it was supposed to be my first day of work after my holiday...managed to send a mail to my prof...to spend the evening out...spam here...and that's about it.
EDIT: As I said Dot, I would still be here when you come back. I can indeed confirm Dottie is a master of discipline and productivity...he especially enjoys staring at walls for several hours...

Gwally? nefarious? you can't be serious!
WB Dottie. have a drink
@CE, staring at walls has a soothing effect, a holdover from my days in the institution.
@Z, I feel your pain.

Hi Dottie, I haven't been ill...just a bit preoccupied is all
How goes the struggle?
I suppose given where we are I had better be careful how I use the word 'discipline'
@C.E Well it probably doesn't hurt to ease back into it slowly, no point in causing trauma to you system......
I hope the holiday was good

Identified it yes, fallen for it, no, and he never tried it on me anyway.

@DW: lol, im sure im in safe company.
Its strange... I've been more tired than usual for the past few days. Cant figure out why, but I barely manage to stay up longer than 14 hours or so... It feels like I could fall asleep at about any given moment
@BS: Ill have two.
Posted: Tue Jul 16, 2002 7:45 pm
by dragon wench
@BS...had he tried it on you I'm not sure which of you I would be more worried about
@Dottie...well..um largely my own company...and how safe that is would be a matter for debate
Hmmm...maybe you just need to sleep more.....
BTW....is anybody else noticing that the time on game banshee is about 3 hours slow? For me It has been three hours behind all day....

@DW: A slow and soft start indeed - I consider staying at home tomorrow (read: today) too...I'd like to watch Tour de France on TV in the afternoon...and it is almost 7 am here, I have not slept tonight (not tired) and nobody else is probably at the lab anyway...
My holiday was excellent, spent some time hiking, did a nice combined scramble and ridge walk, relaxed and socialised with friends
An ideal holiday, in other words
Hope you have been well, too.
@BS: Soothing effect? You and Dottie must have been to the same institution.
@Dotticus: More tired than usual? Doesn't sound good, have you met a tse-tse fly recently or are you just recovering from being awake 80 hours at the festival?

Pours 2 drinks for Dottie. stay awake man
I never thought of it like that before DW, damn, am I glad he didn't try it.

@DW: Lets take that debate another time then... And Ill just happily assume whatever I want to for the time beeing.
Yes, I've noticed thee strange time... If you feel you want it fixed imidiately I suggest you change time-zone.
@CE: I thought I had recovered first day I got home... didnt have work then so I could sleep for eternity. Perhaps im just layzy though...
