Nothing new...

Sorry there has been no update lately. That's because there is nothing to update!

Our life has been pretty static, we have just been going along our way with no suprises. It feels nice to be able to live almost a full month without something big happening.

Except for the game, of course. We have been playing it more and more, and because of that my social life outside the game has dwindled.

Our normal (real life) gaming group has dissasembled into merely once or twice a month, but that is mainly because we no longer have a place to play, unless one of us manly men ask our wives or girlfriends if we can invite our friends over. (why does it, we men want to know, always feel like we are children again when we have to ask our SO's if we can have freinds over?)

In the City of Heroes, though, my wife and I are starting to become popular. Electric Justice, now level 30, is often requested to help with missions in the PvP zones, mainly because of his one-shot potential. And my wife is becoming a great tactician.

Then there are our alts... we can't log on for 10 minutes without getting team invites. Her scrapper can take down groups of villians in one swipe, where my 'troller (Ice/Kinetics baby!) can freeze an entire room for four minutes, even elite bosses. We ran mish's with a team last night on Invincible (think: hundreds of enemies vs 8 heroes). With 2 empathic defenders, 2 blasters, 2 controllers, a scrapper, and a tanker, we didn't even suffer a single death.

Oh well, enough about that. Now back to playing city of... i mean working. Yes, working.

VERY good news!

Matt got his results back from the doctors. His cancer IS still in Stage One, and he does not need surgery at this point.

This is different then what another doctor told him.

You see, the first doctor he saw, after he had his mole removed, told him it was stage 3 (very bad). So my mother had been living under the assumption that he was not destined long for this world.

As it turns out, the first doctor read the measurements wrong. Something about "width" vs "depth" of the infection.

At any rate, he is OK - he is seeing his oncologist on friday, will post more info then.

In other news... City of Heroes is WAY better then World of Warcrack. I'll have to post some pics of my character soon.

Everything else here is quiet. Bug has a field trip today she has been looking forward to, and I am done working in 3 hours (today is my short day). Then it will be Supergroup work for a couple hours (I have about 20 people I command now, we are running team tactics practice today).

To all those who are concerned - here is what is happening...

I talked with my parents about it, and they thought it would be best to share it. Since half of Wisconsin Rapids now knows anyways.

Matt, my little brother, has been diagnosed with melenoma (aka: bad skin cancer). He has had two biopsies already, and has at least one more surgery already scheduled. He is staying at his apartment, and is still going to college.

I will keep everyone updated.

What a week...

No big update today. Some big things are happening with my family in Rapids, but I can't post about any of them until I get clearance. Let's just say that in the near future I may be taking personal leave for a while. Not sure yet. (My wife and I are fine, as is Bug - it isn't any of us).

On a somewhat side-note, we finally (with some online friends of ours) formed a Supergroup. Check out my quickly-made webpage: http://www.soulsofjustice.org
