Oh that's awful! Hope it gets better soon. Hugs

oh i hope you get/feel better soon.

My laptop is acting up.. one of the fans is making loads of noise.... Hope it won't break on me...

been a lurker here, way to busy with work... Doing ok!

Oh no! Feel better soon -hugs-

- thanks! :d I'm feeling better. At least the inflammation has gone down and I can move my arm more now. How have you been? :D

- I am feeling a bit better now. I can move better although I'm really sore. I hope work hasn't been too demanding for you. :D

- it's finally loosening up now. I'm mostly fighting muscle spasms right now. It's almost as if I have whiplash. At least I am able to move my arm more now. I'm definitely telling the doc about this at my next appt. Oh, no! I hope your laptop is ok. Maybe a dustbunny got caught in it? Even though we keep a clean house the fans on our laptops attract a large amount of dust for some reason. Maybe some compressed air shot at the fan will kick the dustbunny out? :D

Things have gone back to normal.

Sorry to hear about your should pain, Duckie :(

Disco Elysium has already come out. I'm playing The Final Cut version.

The basic summary of the game (that I'm aware of so far as I'm keeping away from spoilers) is you wake up without your memory and have to solve a murder. You are helped by your partner Kim.

The talks with characters can go on for such a long time that you can't simply play for a few minutes before going out. Or else you could find yourself stuck in a five or more minute conversation.

You also choose the build of your character. Such as if they're physically strong or weak. There are pre-made builds but you can also make your own.

So it seems like a game that rewards multiple playthroughs.

Wish I had more time in the day to play it XD

oh good it's doing better and yes tell the doc!!! Well i can't unscrew the bottom or anything i did try and blow out the dust and used the vacuum cleaner so far no luck. But it's still working -crosses fingers-

i am glad you are enjoying your game :)

- thanks. :) It's feeling better. I don't think I've heard of that game before. At least no one here has talked about it. Aside from the long conversations, is it fun? :D

- Best not take the bottom off your laptop. That may negate any warranty you have. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it fixes itself. You haven't had much good luck with electronics, lately. First your washer, then your refridgerator, now your laptop. I hope nothing else acts wonky. :D

Thanks :)

I'm glad it's feeling better :)

I like the long conversations as it really helps me get into the role of a detective :)

All things go broke in 3 things. It’s Murphy's law…. Sheesh… -crosses fingers-

On the other hand guess who has a nasty cold and almost no voice… me. This weird weather of train, warm weather, cold weather, freezing is not helping me at all.

:)

-waves to the lurkers-

I love it when you get an alert your GA is almost up. -checks- 2 more days. Big ask…. Does anyone has a Buddy GA they are willing to give me?

- are you gearing up to write a detective story next? I'd love to read it. Personally, I'm moving my stories from Blogger to WordPress. Their interface is more accessible for me. Problem is that I just realized that the name I've been using for my blog turns out to be the same as a famous west coast tattoo parlor. XD I have to think of a new name and I'm not having much luck. lol XD

- I've got you covered. I've got a bunch of buddy GAs just sitting here. lol I'm sorry you're sick. :( Hot lemon tea with honey always helps me when I've got a cold. Bundle up! The weather here is just as crazy. It was spring-like yesterday. Today it's cold and raining. It needs to make up it's mind. :D

Waves back Sent you the Buddy GA. Since sent one too, now you have two months! Yay! :) So sorry you are sick on top of everything else. Ugh.

Hi everyone!

I've just put my latest Kafka's Men up for pre-order. This is the first book in the series told from Blaine Rue's point of view.

HERE is the blog post :)

I really love how well the cover turned out =D

My second favorite of the series.

While I love playing a detective in Disco Elysium, I won't write a mystery. I don't mind having mysteries in a story, but I'm not able to make a mystery last an entire book. Same reason why I won't write a comedy.

WordPress is better but I have had my Blogger for so long. I would hate to have to change my name. I've been using Jash for so long that it's basically my name.

Hi :)

thanks hun!

My cold got way worse and i am sick at home. Coughing my lungs out sheesh!

And i found a computer/laptop repair shop close by. If i feel good tomorrow i am dropping him off.

yay for 2 months! Thank you!

-reads blog- Oh nice i like it.

Howdy KSrs. Been doing a lot around the house lately. Barely feel like playing anything by the time I get on the computer most days. Not the best at organizing (actual organizing or even organizing my thoughts) but really good at procrastination so even when I'm doing stuff I am probably procrastinating other stuff. lol xD

Take good care. ❤ Weather has been all over the place here. Rain, then snow, overnight freezing, dreary and cloudy but dry. Rare peek of sun. Rinse. Repeat. I miss sunshine.

Glad you are starting to feel better.

Subeta makes it so easy to be able to play with items you don't own and save HAs for games. I mean we can save 500 (or that will be the max eventually) of them. I will not mention how many I have saved 'cause I find it difficult to delete stuff I like. Or think I might try to make better later. I think that might make me an HA hoarder. lol

- waves! How have you been? :)

- Im taking a peek. Although I don't like romance very much, I love seeing how others put their stories together. I comiserate on the blog issue. I felt like that when I blew the moth balls off my blogger. I was amazed it still existed after 8 years of inactivity. I thought it had been deleted. But there it was and I was so happy, until I found out the name had been co-opted and the blogger interface is darned near impossible for someone with my challenges to access. I'm not sure wordpress will work out, though. I want my site to do specific things and I don't know if I can get wordpress to do it or not for free. I may end up on one of the free web site places like wix, if it still exists, that is. I did come up with a title, though. I'm going to call it "A Convergence of Words" since that is what a story is, after all. :D

- Oh, no! I hope you feel better soon! I hate it when I get a chest cold. It seems like nothing shakes it loose. My shoulder flared up again and I'm dealing with the aftermath. I'm not a happy camper and the doc is going to get an earfull on Friday. I hope your laptop is doing better. If you have to take it to the shop I hope it's just the fan that's hinky. :D

- Thanks! :) My hubby is a master procrastinator so I understand what you mean. I hope things settle down for you soon. :D

Thanks :)

The art of doing things to delay doing other things is a great craft =D

I do free promotions for my books from time to time. So if you want to check out Kafka's Men, you should watch my blog for any free promotions.

On February 1st to 5th Forget Thyself (first book in my Kafka's Men series) will be free :)

Good name :)

They changed how posts function on blogger a few years ago. Used to be really easy to put pictures into posts. Now I have to mess with HTML to make sure the spacing is right.

Found going to the HTML and erasing the code that is there on a blank posts, helps to fix some issues.

been a couch potato for 4 days. Doing a bit better.

I don’t like having a cold or being sick. The nose and chest cold are the worse and I got them both. Doing better still not 100% Going back to work tomorrow, will try. Did not take laptop away yet maybe next week. Hoping it’s the fan. And give the doc a yell from me to.

been checking to see if the books are over here. So far not

The extended versions of LotR definitely do add a good few extra hours. Sorry to be responding like...a month later. Been busy xD

What do you mean 'over here'? Do you mean on Amazon's Dutch website?

I checked and they're on there. HERE.

- Oh! Thank you for that hint. I'll definitly check out your blog then. :) I looked at your blog and it was easy for me to access. I see that you put movie reviews up there, too. That's good because I take reviews from friends more seriously than from anon reviewers. Thanks! I'm glad you like it.I do have some posts with images in them but I always fiddled with the html so that's not an issue for me. I'm still trying to clean up my blogger so that it'll be a clean import into wordpress. I never realized how many posts I had. lol 😂

- You're just ambitious in the cold department. XD I'm glad you're feeling better but don't push yourself. It's rainy here today, and cold. It was nice yesterday. I wish it would make up it's mind. Done anything interesting lately? :D

- no worries. We watched the regular version of LOTR a couple of weeks ago. It had audio commentary for the blind. It was nice not to have to ask people what was going on every few moments. :D
