And, as most scribes have probably realised, it's been months since my last update.
However, the reasons for that this time, are a little different. My lack of blog updates hasn't been the result of the vagaries of SageTime. Rather, it's because I'm planning something particularly ambitious in terms of my blog/website presence on the net.
Basically, I'm in the early stages of resurrecting my old "Legends of Amasaria" website/blog combination which, essentially, was a catch-all site that I used back in the early 2000's. I included homebrew material, Realms-campaign logs, daily blog-related stuff and practically whatever else I felt like talking/posting about.
I fully intend to fold my continued "Zhoth'ilam Folio" antics into the coming-soon website, which will, hopefully, once again come to focus on wherever and whatever my mind wanders.
More to follow.
Eventually.

| Sounds like you could use at least 4-5 more hours in your day :) |

Ditto that! I'd like about 8 more hours, myself... 4 for sleep, 4 for doing the stuff that working 10+ hours a day doesn't let me get to. |

Amen to that. I would use the extra hours just for reading. I don't get to read nearly as much as I would like nowadays. *sigh |

Oh, I very much know that feeling... Between working all those hours and then playing with my baby boy, my available reading time has dropped dramatically. I used to be able to read some while at work, too, but now I'm staying too busy to get in more than half a dozen news articles or so. |

My skill with manipulating SageTime allows me a certain degree of bending and stretching the time/space continuum to accede to my wishes. |

If you can do that, then why don't things on your list get done?  |

You're failing to consider the effects of SageTime Paradoxes. The most well-known phenomena is Sage's infamous To-Do List, y'see, new entries are constantly appended or shuffled into this list as Sage constantly inscribes them in future timeframes while manipulating SageTime to send them back into past revisions. Sage can thus claim at any time that he already did many things which haven't even been written or prioritized, he can also avoid doing impending things (many of which originate in the future) by sending them to his own past when - since they're no longer recorded on his current To-Do List - they must've already been done, somehow, at some point in the past, even if he's never (yet) seen them before. This careful balance of things done and things undone, even completed things he won't never have not yet haven't going to do before, is part of the fundamental fabric of the cosmos.
I wonder if Sage hates and reviles his own future self for being such a lazy cheater ... or if he aspires to one day achieve such mastery of fine SageTime control that he can essentially laze away in retirement by sending all of his undone chores back to earlier points in his own personal timeline. This too is nonsensical yet essential paradox.
And let's not even attempt to discuss the incomprehensibly infinite intricacies of quantum Parallel Sages ... an entire multiverse/omniverse/paniverse full of all possible Sages (and not a few quite impossible Sages, plus a great many highly unlikely and rather scruffy-looking ones), all scribbling To-Do List items to each other through manipulations of time and space (a phenomenom mathnerdy physicists and wisely bearded theologicians sometimes refer to as "passing the SageBuck") ... |

| Have any of these parallel Sages ever taken something off of the to-do list? |

| The complexities of the SageVerse are beyond even the understanding of an infinite infinitude of Sages. |
