Waiting for the murk to settle

What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me? Into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly because I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk. I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better, because if the scanner sees only darkly the way I do, then I'm cursed and cursed again. - Philip K. Dick, A Scanner Darkly

The combination of fatigue and illness is preventing me from thinking clearly in the game. I'm barely functional at work. Add a healthy dose of stress from selling our place and seeking a house, and I'm just a liability to any poor linkshell or party I might happen to get involved with at this point.

So I'm going on another hiatus, at least until my head clears (both physically and metaphorically).

I'll see you all soon.

Well, people need time to get things together sometimes. Good luck with your house sales/purchase, and hope to see you back soon.

I'll miss reading about your adventures, and hope everything works out well and you come back soon!

Thanks for the kind comments ^_^

I'll be back this Friday, I believe. Feels like the right time to start it up again. I can breathe again, nothing aches, and the new Chocobo update is intriguing me. If I do log in sooner I'll probably go into hermit mode (LS off, Friend list /invis) and fish for awhile.

Feel free to /poke me Faulsey, if you see me on /sea all.

Until then, I'm indulging in some Megaten.
