Welcome back to new/old readerkev_bot!
Stress Level:
My stress level has dropped significantly today already. I think that a major factor in my stress (and subsequent bitchiness) has been a lack of sleep. This is what happens when I get addicted to new games and stay up until 12:30 am every night. :-p
So, yes, I've been quite stressed out lately. Work stress has been hella fun. It's amazing how much my stress level at my real job can go up when some server somewhere else in the building decides to corrupt it's database causing us to get 800+ incoming calls (we have only around 500 domestic stores) on a day when we normally receive 250 tops. Plus the fact that this problem was reported by us more than an hour before anyone actually did anything about it. Plus the week before someone opted to throw a switch that caused our call volume to spike. At least they apologized for that oopsie and meant to actually warn everyone about it before it happened. But, hey, Title Sleuth works again, so it's all good. ¬_¬
Add to that the fact that I caused myself pretty much a two day panic attack over the thought that the landlord/lady/whatever is inspecting apartments, causing me to freak because this is a new company handling it and I'm thoroughly (and irrationally) convinced they'll tell me I can't have my cats, well, yeah. Fun times in JD land. Especially yesterday when I was incapable of eating anything once I got home from work. Sharp, jabbing pains in the tummy when I tried. I managed to eat one granola/yogurt bar and a tiny glass of orange juice and that was it.
But, I went to bed at around 9 to 9:30 last night. Wow. That has SO helped already. I feel much much better today.
And anyone who has had direct contact with me outside of work in the last two weeks can attest to the fact that I have been very very bitchy and grouchy. :-p Very. Extremely. To the point of biting people's heads off for pretty much no reason.satyr_mi has seen this before, he knows what's up. It's the people who haven't been around me as long who are the most put-off by it. :-p
City of Heroes:
Kung Ru is almost out of debt! 15k debt to go. I have two "bubbles" showing debt, but I don't know how much of that second bubble has actual debt in it. Definitely willing to Exemplar away some of it. Continuing to abuse my only non-timed door mission left until level 25 to get it down some. So, if anybody on Pinnacle level 18 or lower wants to play with a cape-wearing high kicking kung-fu chick, let me know! :-p Especially if you have door missions. Door missions are my friend.
Right now, I only have four characters on Pinnacle. Kung Ru (24 Natural Scrapper MA/Regen), Jared Infinity (14 Technology Blaster Energy/Ice), Heraldry (5 Natural Defender Emp/Psy), and Super Diva (3 Natural Tanker Invul/SS). I've got a handful of characters on other servers, but Pinnacle is really my home. :-p Unless Fourth Wall totally abandons CoH, in which case it probably still would be since Kung Ru is 24, butsatyr_mi plays on Virtue a lot with friends of ours, so, who knows. I can always remake her there.
The Sims 2:
I didn't play this at all yesterday, but I've been thinking of re-doing my crazy ass family of Socialites. Or at least slightly modifying their home. I might make the ground level the "party" level and make the top level the "home" level. I'd leave the bedrooms in the middle, though.
I did just reinstall Simcity 4 on my computer this morning. I can use it to make new neighborhoods for Sims 2, so I may do some of that. It's fun playing with the default neighborhoods, though, so who knows. I could create entire sets of families of my own. And, maybe, let them grow old and procreate and die and have a few generations. :-p
Gaming:
The tabletop variety, of course.
Tonight is Mage. It's going to be interesting. My character got arrested in a drug bust at the end of last session (she won't be in jail long, if at all. She has the A2 cops in the palm of her hand) probably because of her hand in blitzing a bunch of technocrats and helping a rogue technocrat escape.
Shadowrun is... hrm. When is the next Shadowrun game? I really need to sit down with my character and figure out what she's wanting to do. She's sorta coasting in my head right now, and that's not good. Need to look at her current Karma and see what she can build up, need to figure out what she wants to build up. Next session should be interesting, dealing with the fallout from a somewhat botched job and all. May yet get some good pay out of it, though.
Well, off to a meeting/training thing for me. Laters!
