Ok so I procrastinated a little bit with the story. With the holidays and my daughters first birthday and everything I haven't had the time. It will be ready very soon I promiss. I wouldn't be too worried about any premature deaths for you, that isn't to say that Ben won't be busy. I need to go find some contracts.

Ah. So a Ben Mortician is much more disturbing than, say, an Erik Mortician (if you were a mortician, anyway...)? Interesting. I didn't know the name of the mortician really mattered to the level of disturbation (yes, I DID just create that word. And I rather like it.....)

And it's okay that you procrastinated. I haven't really written a whole lot over the holidays, either....Oh wait. Yes I have. I re-wrote both my Prologue and Chapter 1....and I failed horribly with that re-write, but oh well. I've learned some things from that mind-numbingly wretched mistake that I probably wouldn't have learned otherwise....like my lack of skill with sentence structure.....but ANYWAY, moving past that.

I look forward to reading the epic battle when the procrastination finally wears off.....And good luck on the contracts. And the piling up of bodies for Ben. He needs work. Badly. Despite your assurances, I'm still not quite sure he's not going to come after a certain relatively recently healed helpworker.....His disturbation might convince him to re-wrong the stuff that was righted....

Hi, your friendly neighborhood Overlord checking in.  Glad to see that the posts are enough to keep the thread alive, but not so many as to bury me.  That's the mortician's job. ;D

To be honest, this thread dies from time to time. It will go months with only a couple of post to then be the most popular thread on the forum for a while. Now I don't think it will ever be as popular as it was a couple of months ago when there were hundreds of posts over a couple of days but it will always be fun.

And it seems I do it in a disturbing manner.

I'll just go on record and say that as of this level, I'm am not currently re-wronging any rightness's.  This may change in the future, but not as of yet. :D
I don't suffer from insanity...  I enjoy every minuet of it!

It's ok to be strange, as long as it's on paper. :)

Couple months ago? Dude, that was barely over a month ago (the date was 4 Dec).....And I'm sorry about the technicalities. I'm in a technical sort of mood. Apparently that happens when you spend all day in court....

And Ben. I've decided I am NOT looking forward to you levelling up....

Sorry I haven't been around much. Dealing with things of an odd nature right now. Hopefully will get something figured out soon. Glad to see everything is still going as wacky as ever =).

Mostly curious about opinions on the change. Yes? No? Fish? (Virtual Cookie to anyone who gets that reference.)

Paper, I love the change. It's AWESOME!

And what kind of cookie is it? Because if you made it with your camels, I'm not sure I even want a cookie....(assuming I got the reference, anyway)

I blame the holidays.  :)

I know I haven't been on much in the last few weeks. Am hoping to remedy that sometime soon.  ;)

Yup, I'm still bored.

Oh, PS: Monsta, love the Wally avatar.  8)

Ok see there it is again, wilson coming to my rescue when I say something wrong. I mean how do I survive without you in my everyday life. I must say a lot of stupid things. I'm kidding.

Camel, the change is awesome.

Chaos, you just try it and you might find that you have a Great Mercenary after you free of charge. ;D

CthulhuKefka thanks man. I figured that until we get closer to St. Patys day I would switch back to the old reliable GreenMonsta. And I figured it wouldn't be the same without Wally.

Good question. How do you survive without me?...How does anyone survive without me? I'm such a great person. So helpful. And completely and utterly humble.

On a different note, though. I feel good. My jury service is done. I think. I'm pretty sure that after we gave the verdict both the attorneys said they didn't want to pool us again. So I'm done. Yay! It was fun. It was a good case, even if the subject matter sounded like it wouldn't be so good (it was sexual abuse....).

And now I get to sit in front of my computer for the rest of the day watching Season 2 of Chuck, since I just finished Season 1. I love this show. So good....

I'll agree to that. Then they would realize the greatness that is Chuck. As it is, I was unaware of it until sometime last week. And now I love the show. It's fantastic.....Bryce makes me laugh.
