Yeah haha. When I had H1N1, I couldn't eat or drink anything other than a teeny bit of water for a week. I was in 6th grade, so about age 11. My mom had to carry me around the house because I didn't have the strength to lift myself. Most of that time, I remember, I was in a heavy sleep. Occasionally, my mom would wake me up to give me ibuprofen or Tylenol to help try to keep the overwhelming fever at bay, and because I was so small I was still taking Children's versions of those, which meant that they were chewable. I used to just tuck them in my cheek to dissolve because I didn't have the energy to chew them completely before I fell back asleep. XD

But yeah, much like that, this too shall pass. I've been increasingly interested in natural medicines, but more as prevention than treatment. In particular, my head is pounding on occasion due to the covid, and I have tons of painkillers but no access to natural medicines that are nearly strong enough to counteract that.
I just play FFXIV at this point. DC: Crystal

I've been debating revamping one of my old RP threads and changing things up a bit for it. But the idea I have in mind is that it will eventually have a definitive end. Partly sandboxy, partly story driven. Haven't decided yet though. Depends how long my stint here will be this time.

Oh noes, that sounds horrible. Good thing you endured, Maddy. I was also a sickly child though not so much I couldn't move. Perhaps, by enduring so much viral problems, your body built resistance, which'll help against covid? Anyways, the easiest natural medicine comes from pine tree needles, just snap a few twigs off, throw it steaming water (NOT boiling water, as boiling water destroys natural ingredients), cover for ten minutes, and you have yourself traditional pine tea.
Cedar bark and twigs were also used to make concoctions.
However, I'm used to a boreal forest environment, which may be different from where you live.
Yarrow is a kind of common flower, it's also highly medicinal, used by both Ancient Europeans and Native American peoples for tea. Simply cut the twigs/flowers off, put it in a bag, then add to steamy water/pour steaming water into container, but don't use boiling water, as bubbly water destroys medicinal qualities.



Ah, well, nice to see you here, Tal! Whatever RP you make, I'd try to partake in for sure.

Thank you for not forgetting about me! I'll be busy today but I'll post sooner or later.

I didn't have time tonight for RPing as I just realized I completely forgot to clean a few of my guns and rust has already formed inside the barrel of my carbine and my PK14 pistol, as well as in a couple other spots.

I cleaned my Tokarev but, when pushing the pin back with a screwdriver, slipped and scraped it along the slider, leaving behind an ugly scratch. I was quite disappointed in myself. I did clean the pistol quite well, as I like disassembling the whole thing and cleaning each piece, though a severe scratch was totally unnecessary. I didn't bother moving onto cleaning the carbine, will do it tomorrow, so RPing by me is postponed again. Seems like no matter what I do I always damage something or ruin someone's day. Would be nice to do something good without being interrupted by any mistake, though my sleep deprivation and natural clumsiness are always in the way.

I'll be unavailable for another night; this morning, I found out the sink basket drain thing had rusted out, and after three car drives to the store, I finally had everything I needed to repair it, then noticed the horizontal pipe was included upwards, so I'll next need to unscrew the other sink part to readjust everything. But I'll do it springtime. Also didn't have time to clean my carbine. I am hoping I can commence tomorrow but if not don't wait for me.

.... Soooo I've been kind of rewriting my old Autumn Star thread and expanding on its universe as well as writing a basic direction of how the story will go. I think it will have a definitive end to it.

Still needs a bit more work before it's ready to be posted, but could be fun - if you like Mass Effect and Star Wars anyway! It's inspired by that kind of thing. Changed up the races as well.

So I canceled my RS membership. Came to the painful realization that I could no longer afford to pay for the game, and that it was getting in the way of RPing. Sad realization, but it needed to be done. In its place I bought Morrowind for the PC, and want to learn how to mod the game, etc in my spare time, but now that the membership is canceled, hopefully Vampyro will go faster, because the roleplay has been going on for 2-3 years now. At some point I'd like it to end. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)
