Ok, this is silly.  There have been several times when extensions should have been called but were not, I suppose out of respect for the game.  But NMRs are even worse - though I will say I've benefitted quite a bit from each one.
 
I'm going to request an extension.  As some of you know, I've been home sick from camp with what is probably Lyme disease, and now I'm feeling better enough to go back to camp, and am now swamped with paperwork that didn't get done in my absence, and the supply closet also fell into some disrepair.  So I think I'm going to need some more time.  I will also say publicaly I need to talk to both Alfred and Fletch, and Fletch is gone and Alfred probably also has his own backlog to deal with after his trip. 
 
So, dear GM, I know you have not had to deal with such selfishness in this game, but I humbly ask for an extension until after the weekend.
 
Thanks!

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing. The shadow, even the darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you - That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding onto something."

"What are we holding onto, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for."
