Gee I'm an *** sometimes. Especially when I act first and think later. Sorry everyone. Sorry Rikae!

Oh looks like I can't say that word. Well, it's still true.

I understand how it is as I've had my own feelings hurt in a game before. It's just important to remember that no one around here intends to offend anyone, but it's easy to rub someone the wrong way without meaning to. One of the disadvantages about forums is that tone can be interpreted entirely different in the written word than what tone perhaps the writer intended to use, which I've noticed has often resulted in hurt feelings.

Continuing on, I'm just letting you know the Day will start a bit late toDay. I didn't return home from work until after nine, which put me a bit behind on narrations. I'm still writing yesterDay's. Depending on how fast I can get this done, I may perhaps start the Day without the narration and add it later since I don't want to start the Day too late.

Also, wilwa has informed me that she's dropping out of the game, so she will be mod-fired at the Day's beginning. Like anyone else, she'll be ghosted and is welcome to return to the game and post later on if she is so able.

Gah, that took a lot longer than planned. Sorry about that. Right around now seems to be a fairly silent period of the Day for most players though, so I'm not sure if it makes a big difference. But please do tell me if you guys think you need me to extend the deadline an extra hour (or more), because I will if necessary.

Hey Gwath, it should be ok, everybody gets a bit p***ed off if they get suspected a lot during their absence for reasons they don't think are plausible. I know that's happened to me several times.

Hi guys. I'm sorry for my absence toDay. I had a bit of a turn at cheerleading earlier - my own fault but not fun all the same - and every time I've tried to read through the thread it makes me feel sick again. Don't know if it's the moving screen or just the trying to concentrate! So, yeah, I'm sort of going to just have to miss this Day and come back tomorrow when I've slept this off.

Just thought I'd let you know, sorry it's so late, I had hoped I'd feel better by now!

I suppose you would be cross if I sneaked away to SW19?

I'd go tomorrow but Murray is playing and while he is to my mind a rather charmless individual I think it will make it so much harder to get in.... Wednesday would be better ....

Absolutely unacceptable!

Don't you know that Werewolf is your most important obligation! Nothing is more important than the game!

*chuckles*

Riiiight. Hehe I hope you enjoy it.

Sorry I wasn't around to watch the end of the Day. I, like Miss Mith, have my priorities horribly out of order and decided I needed a nap.
