I know I probably don't post to the network like I should--keep up with things, tell everyone what's going on in my life, things like that--but the City's just so weird that I can't ever think of anything to say if I'm not replying to someone else. 

What do you post after a ship sinks and people who're really important to you kind-of-die?  "Hey, sorry you guys froze to death and drowned.  That totally sucked.  It's cool that you're alive, though!"  Or when there's a crazy Shakespeare serial killer running around?  "So I heard that a couple more people were murdered in really awful ways.  I even knew one of them.  Bummer, right?"  What about when you spend the weekend being a completely disgusting... rotting... thing?  "Sorry for not coming out of my room.  My body decided to go all zombie today and I thought it'd be better to stay in.  I would've posted, but a couple of my fingers fell off.  It's okay, though, because everything went back to normal at midnight on Sunday."

I mean, what do you even say?

Also, that zombie-rotting thing was completely true.  I don't know if that curse is supposed to make us dead people think about how we're not really alive or if it's just meant to gross us out.  The grossing out was a complete success... not so much the first one.  I don't know about anyone else who's dead, but I'm pretty okay with it.  It happens to everyone, right?  I'm pretty lucky, I think--I get to hang out here instead of going wherever it is people go when they die. 

Oh!  Totally unrelated, but what do you guys think about cards for City-related occasions?  I know I've talked to a couple people about this, but what do the rest of you think?  Do we need sorry-about-what-I-did-during-that-curse, thanks-for-taking-care-of-my-body-when-we-body-swapped, congratulations-on-living-here-for-so-many-years-without-going-crazy, or I-heard-you-died-and-that's-horrible-but-I'm-glad-you're-better cards?  I don't want to make the stuff that happens here any less important, but there're just some occasions that call for cards.  Tacky?  Inspired idea?

Seriously.  I think this could be a thing.


[ooc: I'm being a jerk.  Posting and running.  I'll play catch-up with all of the things tomorrow, and my apologies to anyone waiting on me!]
