w00t w00t!
Finally got around to messing with the design of my IJ. I like it now :-D
My apologies to anyone on LJ who woke up this morning to see the feed from this journal eating their flist. I forgot that the feeds don't pick up on lj-cuts so...yay pr0n taking over?
Trying to figure out what I want to eat. I don't want to eat anything (I'm having one of those days where I just feel fat. I know I'm not, but it just feels like it today), but I have to keep my energy up for GTP tonight. I'm loving this campaign.
So, little bit of background info on GTP: post-apocalyptic setting, with mutants and wizards and cyborgs...fantastic stuff.
In our current campaign setting, mutants are openly disliked, like just this side of inciting riots simply by existing. I'm playing a mutant BUT I'm a mutant with psychic powers - thus it's not obvious that I'm a mutant (unlike, say, the guy who's a lizard-man). So I'm passing myself off as a wizard for the moment.
She's so fun to play. She's all quiet and scared and trying not to attract attention to herself because she's terrified that someone will figure out her secret: either the vigilante mutant who's all about mutant pride and owning who you are or the older wizard gentleman barkeep who is exceedingly kind to her (she's young enough to be his granddaughter) but is very into mutant bashing and would probably kill a mutant if he had the chance.
I am so deadif when either of them find out!
Tomorrow is the start of a mini-prep for the forensics kids. It's still kind of weird to think that I'm going to be coaching them instead of participating. I'm running a workshop on Saturday with Emily about topics and research. It should be fun. I need to do some brainstorming tonight about points I want to hit so Emily and I can meet tomorrow night and plan efficiently. We were supposed to go out tonight but she's off being a good Samaritan and helping a friend who's having car trouble :-P Hence part of my food dilemma - I'd been counting on going out, and when I look forward to something like that it's hard to re-orient myself into thinking "home food."
Oh, and on another random note: Billy and I may be reconsidering the move to LA. We're now looking at New York! Eeeeeeeeeeee! It's still a "maybe" as, to be honest, there are more opportunities for him out in LA (while I'd have more in NY), but I think we were both a little scared by a visit from an old acquaintance who's currently out in LA. It's a big, scary, expensive world out there. Not that it's any smaller or less-scary in New York. Heck, it might not even be cheaper out there. But for me it's much more of a known quantity. First, I've actually visited New York. Once. When I was 12. But still. I've been there. I've never even been in the state of California. Second, I personally know at least two people who live in the New York area, so I can get personal recommendations of what neighborhoods to look at, rather than poking around blindly. Third, I've wanted to live in New York since the afore-mentioned trip. Back then I wanted to be an actor, but still. The desire to live in NY has never left.
And at the very least, as a serious contender for our future home, Billy and I will just have to go visit out there sometime. Darn! ;-)
