tangerinerIn real life news, none of my worst case scenarios for my leg are apparently true. Background: for about six weeks, getting gradually worse, my right leg has suffered from searing pain. Like, I didn't even know the definition of searing pain before, but I know it now. I tried my usual approach (grin and bear it and wait it out), but it failed utterly (it takes me 20 minutes to get a sock on wtf). Finally I went to the walk-in clinic, and after moving my leg around and me swearing at him in stupid ways (curses! fiddlesticks! shooooot!) the doctor thinks it's not anything on my short list (varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, sciatica) and is just a really mangled ligament! That got mangled doing absolutely nothing! Because I have no memory of hurting my leg at all! So now I have drugs and a physio appointment next Monday. Hurrah.
In other news, I would like to talk about Uncanny X-Force Rick Remenber, if you weren't so damn good at what you do, I might start to think you're doing all you do just to enrage me. Okay, the Angel stuff, that was frigging awesome, and it really taught me that I can like morally ambiguous characters without being too defensive, because they can also be very interesting. But YOU KILLED ONE OF MY YULETIDE REQUESTS RIGHT BEFORE YULETIDE!!! Whhhyyyy. No, I understand why, but dammit, I had to lie down and feel bad for Wolverine and Daken, and I never feel bad for Wolverine. But to have him kill his own son, then cradle him lovingly? ; ;
Okay, I got that off my chest, but now let me talk about Jason Aaron, I trust you, I do, but I really feel like you might be preparing to kill off my beloved. (Yes, I do refer to Warren as my beloved, because I have loved him for 20 years). I realise, technically, the Warren I knew died in Uncanny X-Force (Rick Remenber, don't think I've forgotten that your kill count of characters I like is now at 2), but I don't just love his mind, I love his body. And I would like his angel-y powers to be infinite, not finite, as Beast believes.
The only comic I currently feel secure about is X-Factor (a. because everyone who is going to leave has already left and b. PAD is on record that neither Rictor nor Shatterstar are going to die). And All New X-Men, because it just started. Comics, why do you hurt me so bad???
I went a little nuts with the Steam Fall Sale. And by nuts, I mean I have 5 games I can't download until late December, because I'll go over my bandwidth cap and have to pay money to my marginally evil ISP. But so many new games to play! So far, Mass Effect is pretty awesome.
