Hmm...
I was going to post something relatively deep and meaningful about giving up, but I realised that there's no one answer that applies to everything. In some cases (usually relating to small, trivial things), it might be best to give up. But if it's something that means a lot to you then giving up is ridiculous. And thinking about giving up only makes the situation you want to get out of harder, and perpetuates yourself to want to give up further. It's not good. There can be exceptions, but it's very rare.

I've not given up in a long time.

Still, I'm good. Tired, but good. I hope Jeremy doesn't take me on a late-night excursion to Pizza Hut again. We kept them open for 40 minutes past their normal closing time last night, because we came in just befpre they were due to close ^_^; Nice people, they were. We tipped well.

I got back in just after midnight and pretty much fell straight asleep; I was so tired this morning... and people in the dressing room seemed equally tired or pissed off for various reasons. Ah well.

Last day of Alice tomorrow. Everyone's going to a pub to celebrate, and I don't really want to go. I wouldn't mind if it was in Chi, but why go down to Bognor? it's a long way to go for somewhere that sounds worse than anywhere else in this city. I can get home easliy from Chi, and I need to be able to get in early Friday morning because I have a Marat/Sade rehearsal and a driving lesson. Bleh. I might just not go, or at least just walk them to a decent point and bugger off. Besides, I'd much prefer playing on Wizardry 8 to getting drunk ^_^

"We fight for honour and glory!"
Wizardry 8 is amazing beans. You can create 6 custom characters and put them in your party to go and fight gribbly beings that are nasty and evil. And you can customise their voices and personality too, but that's mostly an aesthetic thing.

I have:
Aeryn- female Rawulf Valkyrie, intelligent
Kyru- male Rawulf lord (muchos bonus points and a hug to anyone who knows where those names come from), kindly 1 (honour and glory and all that stuff)
Dracone- male Dracon ranger, loner
Taku- male Felpurr rogue, kindly 2 (keeps wanting to sing songs)
Delanis- female lizardcreature mage, intelligent
Alaina- female Faerie alchemist, eccentric (babbles on about prophecies)

I likes this game muchly, although my characters keep on dying. I have to re-load a game every time one of them does. And the others are always so nonchalant about everything. Kyru dies, for instance, and one of the others will randomly say: "It was his time."

Damn, that's unfriendly. He's got a rapier, dammit!

But anyway, that's whiling away a fair amount of time that I'm not performing in. That, and Ob. I've been trying to think of new things for my OS RPG, along with DeathBug's Duel Monsters one and Ben's legendary W.H.A.T.E.

Plus I have a PM to write. Best get moving.
