Hah, this is number 3, I have some experience with this. I don't expect to feel rested for 6 months.

Incidentally, if you're having problems with sleep, I highly recommend the book "On Becoming Babywise."

Alright IrishKatt is finally here, and the terror known as Redemption shall soon be battle ready.

I swear, when I have kids my spouse and I are going to keep separate bedrooms, one for "on duty" and one for off. I have heard nothing but horror stories, and my sleep schedule is chaotic enough as it is. Hopefully that won't be for some time though.

We generally have a tag team arrangement. Before 7am is her job, after 7am is mine. It works great because I have a hard time getting up in the middle of the night then settling again, while she really likes to sleep in. Of course nursing is always her job, me having a distinct inability to lactate.

Yay for NPCs trying to diffuse intraparty conflict! Just a heads up, the adventure will go smoothest if the five of you all leave together, without Crucible. I can easily set that up, I just need you all to play nice until then

[sammichweasel]

Defuse?! I take that as a challenge!

Okay, so I know he just looks belligerent. No, really! I have a plan for him to actually stick around! See, he's basically supposed to be (based on the instructions from his Patron) an environmental terrorist. He's too lazy for that, and wants to try and talk his way through society. So, ignoring the letter of the mandate, he's latching onto a target that did damage to the realm of his Patron, and will be attempting to convince him of the error of his ways, then use HIS influence to exact change within society at large to stem the tide of over-industrialization (sort of). Basically, he's going to be following Darius around and arguing with him the whole time.

Wee!

I'm trying to stick around, but Savrin has very very very little reason to be here at all (he's not really the academic type) and Darius is being country-ist and uppity...

[sammichweasel]

Hrm, maybe if we redirect the conversation to the Day of Mourning. Everyone seems to have an interest in that, in some way or another.

Maybe, for the moment, come over to argue tho role of the Cyrans in defending the Plains from the Valenar with Nal? Then I can bring up common ground, and we can all nod sagely.

[aivanther]

Without really meaning to, I believe Breaker called all of you stuck up idiots who can't see beyond your noses.

I also tried to pull you in, Ange, though only a tad.

[GrimDarkOtter]

Sorry for the delay everyone, I've been packing for the roadtrip back to school today. I should be able to post tonight.

[aivanther]

If no one posts by tomorrow AM, I'm going to do another post that's even more insulting.

[TheKhan]

Oh joy, that's only going to make it hard for me to get you all to work together. Course, if you don't we have no story...

Katt, you still with us?

[sammichweasel]

Hey, the longer we argue, the more chance for Nal to piss everyone off ^.^

[aivanther]

Oh, Breaker's not angry, he actually cares little about what they're saying. He's just trying to prove Crucible wrong.

[aivanther]

According to IrishKatt's profile page he was on yesterday in the AM. Try PMing him, I guess.
