While things are getting better a lot of things are still a trainwreck on my end.
While my cat has responded to the thyroid medication, she can’t take it as a pill which is the prime reason for all of her side effects (including being vomity as all hell)
So the mighty 15 year old furball is going to be getting a topical gel in her ears, and is on anti-nausea medication and a reduced dose of the pills until she can get on the gel.
That’s one thing that’s getting better…on the other hand, the day after I posted my message about things going on pause, an elderly family member banged themselves up in a fall and is still recovering.
So we are still in wait and see mode over here. When we know more, you’ll know more. 🙁
Andry McCraigyn is the chief of security assigned to protect the heir to Merchant House Caladharas. Andry is a gruff man…who has a special sense of discretion. He tries to do his job to the best of his ability, but he also knows when to look the other way. Especially when the 17 year old heir wants to go out on a date by himself.
Andry McCraigyn is in his late forties,and has been on the job for the last decade and a half…and he considers himself to be one of the best in the business. He isn’t wrong either.
Julia Wells, significant other of Ian Caladharas. Julia co runs the Wells Hotel in Erech’s Clocktower District. For those people who have rpg’d in this world: The Wells Hotel is now known as Cytheron’s. Julia and Ian tied the knot in the City of Greyrest in the Crossing Territories.
I’m gonna get on my high horse – “they” are the superior ones who never panic, but the rest of us can’t be trusted to think our way through anything. Good Grief! Excuse me while I hoard information (and, therfore, power).
In other words, I’m the only one who can be trusted with information and power.
Maintaining a facade of order; a reasonable response by the bureaucrats. Unfortunately, this is a VERY unreasonable situation, and keeping people in the dark has already cost thousands of lives.
The sad part of all this is that the bureaucrats are us – as Pogo said: I is seen the enemy and he is us. It’s just a bunch of people doing their jobs as best they can, waiting for someone in a higher position of responsibility to make the decisions they’re paid to make. Of course, that’s what the responsible people are doing too. Telling no one anything is just a delaying tactic.

“Power corrupts”.
Bah, humbug!
