I would just like to point out that I am a whole-hearted supporter of taking four-day weekends. I don't think I've ever quite managed to just lay back and do pretty much nothing and not feel guilty about it in a long, long time. I didn't go anywhere or do anything particularly out of the ordinary for me, but I managed to find a little relaxation and a lot of time on my hands. Very useful if you're trying to complete multiple projects, like Darkness & Stars or Lie To Me.
Over that long weekend (which, despite the slight drop in my next paycheck because of it, I thoroughly enjoyed without any guilt), I managed to finally get around to doing a couple of things I always said I would. For starters, Darkness & Stars is now on Chapter 27. I'll remove the current download link and replace it with a new one when Chapter 30 (the halfway point) is completed. I've also learned just enough WeiDU code to make an extremely basic, bare-bones NPC mod for Baldur's Gate II. However, over the process of learning WeiDU and working on the NPC dialog files needed to get her to speak to the characters already in-game, I realized something.
I need to finally learn Ren'Py.
And though I had slain a thousand foes less one,
The thousandth knife found my liver;
The thousandth enemy said to me,
'Now you shall die,
Now none shall know.'
And the fool, looking down, believed this,
Not seeing, above his shoulders, the naked stars,
Each one remembering.
--John M. Ford, The Final Reflection
