This casting wasn't easy. It took several hours to get through, and there were a bunch of people we really weren't sure about. I was pleased to see how much our hard work paid off. Many of you have Jared to thank. He took a lot care with this, and fought for a lot of castings that ended up working really well, such as Zachariah and Kevin. As in many such situations, we balanced each other fairly well...
I went to Intercon this past weekend. I am drained and exhausted, but had a really great time both running and playing in games--and I really expected to have a horrible time. More fool me. I seem to have this thing where at every Intercon, I end up playing a really ridiculous role that everyone remembers me for. Last year, I was the maniacal over-the-top supervillain in a game. This year, I was Jabba...
So, with Dave and David away for the weekend and Mac and Sheena at Arisia, I have the house to myself. I like it this way. So, what's the very first thing I do with my bachlorette pad to myself? Clean, of course! I blasted bad TV in my room while I scrubbed the place down-- it really needed it. So, now that things are neat and lovely again, I am pleased. Too bad I couldn't have gotten all that done...
I have to wake up in six hours and I haven't finished packing. This is possibly a bad sign. Oh well. I'll sleep on the plane(s). My wonderful three week break of doing nothing comes to an end in a little more than twelve hours. Quite depressing. So I'm already planning Fun Things To Do Upon My Return. Sunday shall involve hanging with people and finallyrestarting lightgamer 's GURPs game....
Crisis averted, Mac has returned to normal. Solution: Get in touch with inner Cade-like qualities and stop being so serious. ... And really only two or three people have any idea what I mean by that. Huh. I'll have to work Cade into some stuff again at some point. Anyway, rationality should always be balanced by a good dose of complete immaturity, and I simply haven't been indulging in that enough...
(Surprisingly good movie, I must say. Still definitely Frank Miller, but there was a lot of stuff there I never would have expected from the guy. SLJ was fantastic, unsurprisingly.) So, about my city: Louisville, Kentucky. Kentucky is a Southern state by everyone's account, but Louisville itself is so heavily influenced by the Midwest that it's been called both the northernmost Southern city and...
It's been a crazy semester. I've been doing the Environmental Field Semester all semester, which has had me out in the forests of Weston several days a week in the early hours of the morning poking, prodding, numbering, coring, measuring, and aging lots of trees. My final project is finally turned in and my final presentation given, so I have taken the past few days to relaxify a bit. Saturday I played...
It's an hour and a half before my first actual final, and I don't feel like going over irregular verbs yet so I figured I'd finally post something. Last weekbasically continued to be awesome from beginning to end. On Tuesday a pyromaniacal Pelor-worshiping tiefling convinced me that bacon was evil; on Wednesday my Buffy character attempted to befriend the person who enslaved him; on Thursday I worked...
Back in Waltham. I started the day stressing about things, but all of my--- OH MY GOD IT'S SYDNEY -- Sorry. Patrick Bauchau just appeared on My Own Worst Enemy. Or at least someone who looks and sounds a lot like him... Anyway. All of my teachers are incredibly nice, my grades remain stable, and best of all, I got to have dinner with bronzite . So today went far better than planned. I'll...
Flew from Boulder into Manchester, NH Wednesday night. For the day beforeThanksgiving, the airports were relatively quiet. Rented a car - they were out of reasonable vehicles, so I am driving a KIA Sportage. This car is TOO big. Drove to royal_rooter 's house. Thanksgiving day spent at royal_rooter 's with her family. Her Nana and Napa are awesome folk, as are a large enough percentage...
