My_Eggs

Since I now have the funds to get from 74 to 90 construction if I use sc hammers I went to do some Fast SC. I haven't played it in forever and the other people there weren't doing as good as I expected them to, these were my first three games: 159/1680 points needed for the hammers so far. Like 14 hours or so of SC ahead of me.

Good news, my headache has gone away for the most part. :thumbsup: The bite area is quite odd though, it went from swelling and having a red dot in the center to not being swollen and having a blister like thing where the red dot was. From what I've found online, the closest looking bug bite picture I can find is that of a fire ant. :blink:

I'm still alive but this headache has turned itself into easily the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. When I got third degree burns on my arm in 8th grade, it was nothing compared to this. When I broke my toe in martial arts and it was facing back at my ankle, it was nothing compared to this. I can't sleep and it hurts to look at my computer screen. I'm gonna go lay down and scream now.

I was letting the dogs outside earlier and the moment I stepped out the door I felt a bug land on my shoulder. I tried to swat it away but it instantly darted into my shirt and went to town on my collarbone. I don't know what it was but it bit me once and immediately the pain set in. In my past experience with bug bites I've never felt them before, they just started itching later, but never any pain. Well I went back inside and looked in the mirror, it had already started to swell up a bit, but unlike spider bites where you can see both fang marks, there is only one mark right in the center of the swelling. Whatever it was it broke the skin easily and there was blood. Right now the area is still swollen a little bit, there's a red spot in the center, and it hurts like hell. Besides that I've started to develop one of the worst headaches I've ever felt. I'm also starting to become nauseous. I can't think of what it could have been that bit me because it doesn't look like a spider bite and I can't think of what other bugs there are in Missouri that would cause all of this... Ugh, feeling like hell right now. Edit: Oh, and I have no job, no money, and no insurance right now so any doctor or hospital visits are out of the question at the time being. I put some triple antibiotic ointment on the bite and I guess I'll just ride it out and pray it doesn't get worse.

So far I've got 2 barrels of monkeys, a monkey mace, a see no evil hat, and a hear no evil hat. :thumbsup:

I thought the same thing and ended up losing the 12M I made from barrows. Oh well, looks like I'll be heading back to barrows again.

@Rob: Yes I did. :shades: I tried getting a picture of the snake with my phone but it doesn't have a zoom option and there was no way to get close enough to get a good picture without being bitten. @steve: Yeah, I usually deal with very small snakes, usually 1-2 feet long, so this was quite an experience.

[hide=Found this guy in my yard today] [/hide] He was a rat snake, about 4-5 feet long. For not being poisonous, he sure was aggressive... Since he was in my yard and my ex's little brothers play in the general area I decided it would be a good idea to get him out of there. I didn't know exactly what he was at first and I knew water moccasins are black too, so rather than just trying to pick him up and take him to the near by field I grabbed my bo staff and guided him there. If I'd known it was just a rat snake I probably would have just picked him up, though it's good I didn't. As I was guiding him to the field he tried striking at me quite a few times, he really wasn't happy being told he couldn't live in my yard. I would have hated to have one of the little kids in the neighborhood get bit by this guy, I'd imagine it would be quite painful. My grandpa took the picture with his camera, then I took a picture of the picture with my phone haha. By far the biggest snake I've dealt with so far, but I'm sure I'll find more soon. I find snakes fascinating...

So double drops are pretty cool... Got myself two full sets of Akrisae's gear on the first day of double loot, plus a few Verac's items and a lot of runes. I see construction levels coming after this weekend. :thumbsup:

I'm from Cedar Rapids, IA. Born there and lived there for 17 years, now I'm in Missouri though.

Same... Your father tells you what you can and can't write on the internet? It had to do with things going on with his business right now that he'd rather keep private at the moment. Nothing bad on his part, just about a customer.

Good job Bows and Riku, sorry Giordano.

Edit: Nvm, been asked by my father to remove this.

I'm in the process of making enough money to buy gear and supplies so I can camp Glacors all weekend, but something tells me I'll end up at Barrows after hours of not being able to get a spawn to myself...

Yay. I can see myself getting 99 by mid June depending on how much I play and if I stay focused on this skill. I also have 99 firemaking banked. Might do some hunter if I get bored along the way to 99 in both of those skills.

Damn, that was really good. Thanks for sharing. :thumbup:

The shanty pass bank on w100 is very nice, other than the random [wagon] that show up and try to cause problems. They like to plant flowers everywhere so that you have to walk a ways to get to a fire rather than not moving from the bank chest.

Nice, I'm cleaned right now as far as money, but I've got a few items and about to hit up frost dragons. :thumbsup: Last night I was at 3.7M cash, made my way up to 14.2M, then lost 8 fights in a row, effectively getting rid of my cash pile. Oh well.

Agreed, those things are the clear winner here.

I've been doing some thinking today and I realized that I have a "look" that women apparently like... I didn't really put two and two together until I got to thinking about my ex and about that girl from the park. When I was dating my ex she would always tell me that I got this look in my eyes and she knew that I wanted her right then and there. She said she couldn't really describe it, but she knew it when she saw it and it let her know that I found her beautiful and turned her on like crazy. I thought she was just saying that, but then I got to thinking about the girl from the park. She had mentioned a few times that I had this look on my face that made her feel like I wanted her. She said it reassured her and made her feel more comfortable around me, and even turned her on a bit... I used this look to get her to go from never having kissed a guy before to making out with me like the second day I hung out with her. Now that I'm moving near the lake I'm sure there are going to be a lot of cute girls down there... I think I'll use this "look" to my advantage, because I know EXACTLY what they are talking about now. I remember saying that when I moved to Missouri I wanted to be one of those guys that was with a new girl pretty much every week, but then I ended up falling for my neighbor... I think it's time to be that guy. No more emotions, no more relationships, just sex. We'll see how it goes. God help me, don't let me fall in love again. :thumbup:

I don't know what it is, but they just creep me out like crazy. I'm terrified of them, if I come across one I must either kill it, or run away if possible lol.

We're moving to a new house about 30 minutes south of where I'm at on the 24th of this month. It's about two blocks away from the lake, I believe I posted a picture of the view from the deck in this thread some time ago. We went to the house today to do some work (painting the deck, putting up lattice, etc.), we got there at 9 a.m. and got home at about 7 p.m.... Long day, I'm very tired now and apparently we might be going back tomorrow. As some of you may know, I'm terrified of spiders. Well guess what, spiders everywhere at that house. We made the mistake of leaving the windows of the car down and on the ride home I looked over and noticed a huge spider on the back of the driver's headrest. My brother was driving and I was in the passenger seat. I freaked out, the thing was nearly the size of my fist. Since it was only him and I in the car it was up to me to get rid of the bastard... I grabbed one of the shitty frisbees that I never use when discing and attempted to smash it. The damn spider used some sort of magic and managed to change places when I tried killing it. It went from on the headrest to on the disc I was holding... Very calmly I brought the disc across my body, screamed like hell, and flung it out the window, effectively getting rid of the spider and giving him the ride of his life. Holy hell I hate spiders... :thumbdown:

Suddenly, a challenger appears:

Only combat familiars fight for you, and only in multi-combat areas. It's not like you have to use them either, you could stick with using beasts of burden and other familiars that don't fight.

So that new girl I started hanging out with is kinda clingy... The second I started driving out of the parking lot of the park the other day she was already texting me saying "I miss you already". She texts me nonstop all day while she's at school too. I just don't feel like I like her that much, probably gonna put an end to this relationship already. :???: Today I got my RS membership started up again... Since I did that I've spent the entire day sitting on my ass playing the game. Gained about 1.5M rcing exp today.
