[attr="class","infobig"]UPDATE ON THE HALLOWEEN EVENT
[attr="class","infosmall"]aka: why is sifr such a slacker?
[attr="class","info"]Hey guys! Well, you may have noticed, you may not have, but I've been away for the last few weeks. Probably at least three. I don't know. Anyway. Because of this, as you probably noticed more, the Halloween event didn't get updated, and frankly now is probably kind of shot. I don't feel like running it, you probably don't feel like participating in it, very bad all around.
I feel I owe a bit of an explanation for my absence all of a sudden, so here goes.
It all kind of started as a "I'll be back in a few days". I had the death of a coworker that I was close to happen as well as Canadian Thanksgiving. So, in between preparing for a funeral and spending time with family, I didn't have time to update. But I was fully intending to be back as soon as Thanksgiving was over.
Thanksgiving Monday, I had developed a slight cough and sore throat.
Tuesday, I had developed a worse cough and slightly worse throat, as well as a splitting headache.
Wednesday, the cough got worse.
By Sunday, I had to stay home from my workplace due to my cough not only persisting enough to give me only two hours of sleep a night, but for me to choke on my own fluids.
Since then, I have basically been vacant from the internet save for keeping in contact with Ranieri, mainly because... well... he's my fiancé, I had to. I've been in no right mind to interact with people except to growl and cough at them. (Seriously. Rani is a saint; every time I told him to screw off and go die, he told me I was cute and coaxed me to smile.)
Two weeks later, I'm still pretty ill, but not ill enough that I can't sit here and type at a computer and concentrate on my work. I'll be easing myself back into things the next couple of days. I'll also be giving participation prizes to all those who participated in the event. I probably will do something smaller for Christmas, but please bear with me as I recover both my temperament and my physical health.
Stay tuned!
