Been super busy of late but I hope to get back here later today/tomorrow and add spoiler tags to my Soldier Son prediction thread so you can go there for a look during your reading, fool-ish. I mainly just want you to finish so you can join in the RotE vs Gernia discussion. If you just *can't* finish, I'll have to beg you to head over there anyway...spoilers be damned!
I'm pretty sure that Albertosaurus Rex made entries in his SS threads but gave prior warnings as to where he was up to in each book if you wanted to go and have a look in the Gernia thread?
Many have felt like you do though so you're not alone...
As for what's happening in my world, well, I am suffering this morning from a case of 'coulda, woulda, shoulda'. A friend had been battling cancer for some time (and had been for many, many years) and I hadn't had a chance to drive the four hours down to see her since the commencement of the latest bout. I knew it wasn't good but, then, it hadn't been good before.
I was actually *in* the town on the Thurs/Fri of last week where she was in hospital. I had planned to go and see her. I was there for a school reason, and extremely busy with the roles I'd had, so ended up racing back home feeling awful and thinking that I didn't get there as I'd planned but I would make a special trip back to see her yesterday.
You know where this story is headed, don't you?
I didn't have to go anywhere yesterday as she'd already died midweek, and I'd missed (or turned my back on?) my chance.
So, 'coulda, woulda, shoulda' is what I am wallowing in now. Tsk, tsk, and I'm sure it won't be the last time. Learning from past mistakes is not something I'm particularly good at!
I'm off to my vegetable garden to do battle with some weeds...
Oh, I will need to check but I think my eldest son had Diablo as a nickname for a time many years ago. Though he was a World of Warcraft addict, he did dapple in lots of other games eg Runescape etc...going on the nickname, I'm assuming that Diablo was one of the others!
