I think I'm going to drop all my threads and take a straight up break from RP for a month or so. Then maybe try and hop into a game again. I'm extremely busy with work now that the office is back open and I just come home and plop down in exaustion.

I think I should be good to go again in October
King of Games
once things have... settled.
King of Games
the whole half the office doing work from home and half in the office is actually way more work to juggle than everyone being one or the other.
Lauren
sounds like a good plan, a break often helps a lot anyway and then all the work stuff ugh
King of Games
I do want to pretend like Rosi and Kuai had a bunch of submarine shenannigans.

While benny hill played in the background
Grimme
Big mood, friend. 
Lauren
absolutely haha
King of Games
I just open my inbox and stare and it stresses me out. Cuz i wanna do the thing but my brain is like: Nah.
King of Games
So just gonna chill and be back in a month or so.
King of Games
In the meantime expect cat pics and tidepooling. Since that's kinda my one relaxing thing I do
King of Games
I go poke anenomes
King of Games
(shh, don't tell the park rangers I've poked them.)
King of Games
I also didn't post here about it but I got really sick a few weeks ago and had to get a covid test (which was negative) and I ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH STRESS BODY, THANKS.
Lauren
ughhh yeah I wonder if you got that weird rhinovirus that seems to be sneaking up on everyone
Lauren
I have a cousin who works in healthcare who mentioned it's really going around here right now, and both my parents got really sick for like two weeks
Lauren
same thing, they got tested, negative
King of Games
i had a really sore throat for a few days and also was concerned it might have been strep and then one day I woke up and it was ... gone.
King of Games
yeah i heard there's been some gnarly colds, and i'm back in the office breathing that recirculated air. (We're wearing masks but i mean.. we drink water and eat and stuff)
Gemini
oh yeah, Rose got really sick with an actual cold last week, thank god she had pto to burn. she was out liek three days
Gemini
so yeah you're not alone, this is A Thing for sure
King of Games
it was so nice to not have any colds for a whole year, and then I guess it was like: REMEMBER ME BITCH?
King of Games
but it was only for like 4 days and then it just.. went away.
King of Games
usually i slowly get better, but this was literally I woke up on a wednesday feeling fine
Gemini
that moment when you're like "oh thank god it was just a fucking cold"
Lauren
right?
Lauren
the sudden relief that you're just the normal kind of sick
King of Games
it was also weird cuz when i got the test i just signed up online thru Kaiser, and I went to the place and there were HUNDREDS of cars there driving thru. ANd I'm sure some of them are just people travelling who need a negative test to fly to Hawaii or something
Lauren
oh yeah for sure
King of Games
but it was WAY MORE than I expected considering how low cases are here. I bet it's a lot of people with colds concerned about Delta
Lauren
yeah gotta be a combo of people willing to fly again and then everyone getting randomly sick
King of Games
and my office is a big sample size cuz with all the studios we work with it's hundreds of people, but I have 2 coworkers who've gotten covid who are fully vaxxed.
King of Games
So i was like: I don't wanna be number three!!!
Lauren
god yeah for real
Null
This sounds like a smart idea.
ꜱʜᴏᴡᴛɪᴍᴇ!
i'm glad it wasn't covid, yikes D:
