I would apologize for my lack of posting as of late save for two reasons: 1) it has come to my attention that the quality of my “work” has been somewhat sub-par and 2) I haven’t the mental energy to formulate a reasonable apology due to the fact I have been staying up until 3am most nights.

One could argue that the latter contributes somewhat to the former in this case, but that would be ignoring my inherent inability to formulate a sentence that ISN’T a complete run-on for 90% of the time when I’m writing. (See - there it goes again!)

Additionally, one could argue that I’m not actually “staying up” till three AM when I’ve been known to fall asleep at the reins of my Nightsaber more than once a week. Luckily, I have developed special sign to indicate to my fellow EMB crew when an impending narcoleptic episode is imminent (or has just occurred). If I type “ahfrtdgfrts” (this is the region of the keyboard my face is statistically most likely to come into contact with if i take a sudden nap) then everyone knows its time to take a break - while I dream of far away places, huge XP bonuses and epic mounts….

(We all know you’re lying - you dream of kittens in your sleep - ed.)

Next week - I’ll bring you reports from the frontline of Winter Games ‘06….if Brixtone hasn’t completed all my games and reviewed them first, that is….. Bastard.
