That felt weird.

Aren't you glad you didn't mix up the two messages? I bet that would have been even weirder.

Although really, being told you're having surgery can be a good thing, too. Especially if, as it sounds, it fixes a chronic problem.

I actually am pretty excited about this. I've been kind of bored during the break between quarters.

So I found out that you can still toggle the fog by pressing F3 and F at the same time. So that's nice.

I'll also need some time to build the main spawn building after updating to 1.8. and genning a new map. In the mean time d...
