gridloreIt looks like my gall bladder will join my spleen, two lymph nodes, part of my liver, and whatever that bit of tissue Dr. Gregg cut out of my groin (while Kirsten watched) in the Plane of Bits Removed From Doug on January 29th. This may change, they'll call me tomorrow to confirm. The delay is caused by my surgeon trying to contact my alleged oncologist to see if he wants any souvenirs while she's poking about.
Yes, this is my sense of humor going into overdrive. Weep for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kshandra, she gets to live with this kind of commentary. For the rest of the month.
The good news is the hospital stay should be short, no more than a day or two if all goes well. If it doesn't go as planned, and more general surgery is needed, I could be in hospital for several days. And the recovery period? 2-3 weeks at the least. California Disability, hello!
Which means we are going to accelerate the eBay auctions. Please, repost the link to your journals or to any gaming-related mailing lists or pages you feel appropriate. Money is already tight, this makes it worse. We're going to be adding stuff every few days. Some real rarities, like GURPS: Callahan's Crosstime Saloon and GURPS Illuminati (an early printing).

Date: 5 Jan 2010 04:56 (UTC)A long time ago on rec.games.frp.misc someone said that Rifts supplements didn't suffer from power creep, they suffered from power acceleration in a Porsche 911 with nitrous feeds. It's a sad commentary that by the third book the classes from the first book were unplayable. By the fourth or fifth book, the average starting character could level city blocks.
