Familiar taste of poison

So I've been playing L2 all day, again. I managed to get about 4% within 20 minutes, which is fairly good for a level 81+. For some reason I can't take as much damage as I used to, and I'm wondering if this update nerfed VR or something. I was killing the orcs at the entrance of CoD and my health was just gone. I used to VR it all back but now it's just... Ugh. Yeah.

Ryan went to help his brother move today, and it got to be too late to go and pick him up, what with this snow and all. My car was swooshing back and forth on the road, and mom couldn't see anything. She got to the highway and turned around. He's staying at a friend's house. Sad face. He missed enchiladas! Yummy-in-my-tummilee enchiladas! With Pepsi.

Not too much to really say. Haven't been working on the story at all, from lack of inspiration, and I have to think about a different story, for class. I have, however, written some folklore for the video game I am working on. I'm also supposed to start quest guides for the GoD update. (which is going to suck, because the newbie quests suck, and I hate them very much so. Oh, well.)

I promised my dog earlier that I'd dedicate a section of this post to him. (I know, I'm so weird, but I love my dog.)

Here's buster:

This is the most recent picture of him. I love my dog so much. He can high five! Don't ask how I taught him that. He's around 10 years old. Prob 11 by now. For a poodle his heart is in perfect condition, and he's perfectly healthy. So weird.

Title story: Familiar Taste of Poison is a song by Halestorm. It speaks so much truth about my life.
Drink the wine my darling, you said
Take your time and consume all of it
But the roses were only to drain my inspiration
The promises were spoiled before they left your lips and

I breathe you in again
Just to feel you underneath my skin
Holding onto the sweet escape
Is always laced with a familiar taste of poison

I tell myself that you're are no good for me
I wish you well but desire never leaves
I could fight this to the end
But maybe I don't wanna win

I love this song. It makes so much sense to me. Halestorm is also great game-play music. Might do another improv-poem tomorrow. Yes, the most recent ones are truth, about someone I used to be very close to.
