No matter where you go, there you are.
Jul. 19th, 2002 08:21 amSo sad, nobody even tried to guess yesterday's quote. Methinks this particular game has reached its logical conclusion. I'll have to think of some new and interesting way to lure you all into reading my journal now }:)
Gaming was good last night, and my character, spineless jellyfish that she is, even stood up to the big bad guy and gave him what-for with a silver arrow and some damn fine magic missiles. Our paladin managed the coup de grace, but I still felt like I'd accomplished something. Most of the time she's rather like Arnold Rimmer, a complete physical coward who, when the fighting starts, generally makes like a tree and leaves. But c'mon, she's got about 12 hit points and a 12 AC, she's just not a melee person. Next time I'll play some hulking tank character who hacks and slashes her way through every situation. For now, though, I've got to admit my current character is obscenely fun to play. She's delightfully predictable and has to be smarter than your average bear to survive.
Still no hot water, I'm thinking that either:
a. PG&E didn't actually turn the gas on yesterday
b. The gas was turned down to the water heater and must now be turned back up so the flame can actually heat the water
c. The pilot light needs to be relit
I'm clueless about gas water heaters, but thankfully
aelfsciene found the instruction manual so with any luck between the two of us we can figure something out. Anyone with any experience in these matters feel free to speak up.
Oh, I may be purchasing both a blackberry and a raspberry bush this evening. If I do this insane thing, will anyone eat said berries? I really don't want to end up with assloads of berries that no one will touch save me. Any takers, speak now or I may decide against it. Also if anyone has any requests fruit/veggie wise do speak up, I've got scads of yard space just begging to be planted and I'm more than happy to share the bounty.
Sheesh, this posting sounds all domestic and stuff, how frightening.
Crunches: 0 (got in too late and futzed around too long doing other
stuff before passing out.
House water temperature: tepid
