Sometimes you really do need a break from writing. o_o; I feel much more able to write and inspired now I took some time off just to unwind from my big games. That still sounds great! :D I love hiking, I was never a fishing kind of guy. Oh! Rattlesnakes are kinda nuts, I don't live anywhere where they live, so no venomous snakes for Dervs! And yeah, camping while raining is like ten kinds of suck. You were going to camp without owning a tent? XD Not a good way to learn how to pitch it. Oh nice! I think the last fish I caught was a rainbow trout, about ten inches? Biggest thing I ever caught. Hahaha! Best way to deal with room mates like that is make it plainly obvious you're listening in and just yell shit like, "OH YEAH, DON'T FUCKING STOP! I'M GETTING THERE!" or whatever, make them really aware there's suddenly a crowd, and having an annoying third party tends to take most people out of the mood. :'D And yeah, small dogs have a contract with Satan to bark at literally every fucking thing in the universe. I hate them so much. I don't know why people find them appealing, at all. You want a small animal? Get a rabbit or a cat. Dogs need to weight at least 40-50 pounds, otherwise they're glorified sewer rats. Oh nice! And nope, I don't think we have Forester's up here. o.o
