Before I forget this for yet another month:  Happy Birthday to the June LJers:

  • and

For those of you who had birthdays from… whenever the last time I posted a monthly greeting was until now:  Happy belated to you!

It was a good day.  I went to work, left at lunch to run some errands, went back to work (SLC office)… only to find that the meeting that we were supposed to have this afternoon – the one that I went up to SLC to attend – wasn’t going to happen.  *sigh*  Fortunately, I took a few things with me to work on.

Post-work, I came home and just… relaxed.  I went to the grocery store to get some ice cream for a snack tonight.  I bought everything except ice cream – I couldn’t justify paying the price they wanted for a pint of ice cream.

The High-Flying Adventures of Indigo Bolt
I patrolled Paragon City with Wraithkiller and Stormy Skyz for a while.  As we wrapped one mission – and were about to start a timed one – they quit the team.  *sigh*  So, I took on the timed mission alone.  That was not exactly one of my brighter ideas.  I didn’t die on the mission, but I came close a couple of times. 

I am not sure if I was on a story arc or an archvillain mission series… but that mission led to a mission in the sewers.  In Crey’s Folly.  Greeeeat.  Rikti and Nemesis.  Together.  Wonderful.  Off I went.  The mission started off well; Sparky and I were doing well… until I got to the chamber at the end of the tunnel.  I took on the first group of villains/aliens.  No problem.  The group after that?  Fine.  It was the next group that dropped me.  The first time. 

I went to the nearest hospital, got patched up and headed back to Crey’s Folly.  I picked off members of the group that killed me.  Check.  Started in on the next group.  And again, I found myself lying face down in sewer water.  Back to the hospital.  Back to Crey’s.  I finished off the last of the Nemesis and Rikti, completing the mission…

…and finding that I was being sent on another part of the mission.  Great.  That and the fact that I was 13k in debt.  *sigh*

But that’s a mission for another night.

Stray Toasters

That should be enough for now.

Namaste.
