weekend is here!

Huzzah I say! It brings with a feeling of ease and potential relaxation. I don't want to go out more that necessary and sleeping in is a definite must.

On a completely unrelated note: I just thought of a roleplaying experience from when I was just starting. I was playing with my friend ricky, and some older friends of his. One of the players was playing a cleric who had an prochronism (that is acting in the fashion of a time that has not yet occured, the inverse of anachronism). She would not provide healing or ressurection spells for anybody who was dead for more than 5 minutes, because they were brain dead. This bothers me intensely because that is something we weren't even sure about how long it took until the last couple of centuries. How would a holy person, in a low tech, high fantasy setting have any conception of this at all? It's like a victorian gentleman not using a coal burning steam engine because gas/electric hybrids are more efficient.

I'm not sure why I thought of that now, after all these years.
