BTW, What happened to that finger? I got tendonitis in my right index (from which it never recovered) from cutting it to the bone (literally) while working on a model ship. So how'd you do yours?

I just got a small cut, which I cleaned thoroughly, but I had to work everyday with trash and stuff like that and allthough I try to wash my hands as often as possible, it got infected. The place were I worked yesterday didn't have soap to keep washing it properly either.
Don't worry about hygiene towards the guest though: I didn't actually serve anything the past few days. Just removed the empty glasses and the trash.

It is a game like The Sims, except you create your civilization from the single celled level up. Here's a video (35 minutes long) that does a very good job of presenting it. It looks very cool to me.

Something like Civilization then? I love that game!
Perhaps that's because I'm fairly good at strategy games in general... Dungeonkeeper, Red Alert... takes me back

EDIT: I shouldn't post before watching the whole thing. It looks cool. It has a lot of different features, but I don't think I can play it on my beloved laptop. She's too old for that I guess. No offense! No offense, don't die on me now!

I'm sure she does her best. I like making the single celled organisms, I'm so totally grabbing some nematocysts.

Mari - perhaps it was a Lyrd Nazgul lawyer that caused the vicious papercut?

I was more interested in the creating a nice intelligent life form, before the building cities part. The terraforming sounds nice too. I want an aquatic lifeform that can live on land as well! ET!!! Oh wait, ET was something different... Thanks for sharing Nautipus!

It wasn't a papercut that got me actually. My own nail did.

Ow! When I cut my finger it was with a wood carver that was brand new and scalpel sharp. I didnt even feel the cut at first it was so clean.

Oh I felt it alright. It was the nail on the finger itself, not from another finger. Don't ask me how it happened, but I ended up having to pull it out. Still, it was only a tiny wound, so I thought it would heal quickly, but it didn't
Oh, my mum bought me new lounging pants... It looks nice and it feels very comfortable. I'm lounging in it right now
