I have a couple of ideas roiling around in my head right now.

One is a solo game I will hopefully be running for Jon! (more below)

The other is my Anima: Beyond Fantasy character, which I'm making for a short-term game that will be running on RPoL. I finally found someone who's willing to run the system, woo! I hope it actually takes off.

Anyway, I just wrote a small profile for my character concept (she is an Illusionist.) Nothing particularly special, just your usual escaped Arabian princess kind of story :P

We're leaving pretty soon to get my sis! Yay!!

Unfortunately it seems she's arriving on one of the coldest days this month. Geez, it's FREEZING even inside. ;.; Doesn't help we have such big windows though, and the finishing touches haven't been done on the frames yet.

Ohoh I had the opportunity to try every one of my games yesterday, too. I have run after posting this (just got call from sis, she'll be here in 2 hours!) but I wanted to post some short impressions, and a bit about other games Jon and I want.

Also, bonus chara artwork! Mostly 'cause I think Selina will appreciate.

Came back with some video games. :O I decided I'd put most of my Christmas money into a game shopping spree. Among other things I have Luminous Arc 2 and Rhapsody for DS, and also Baroque for the PS2. I got the only copy I have EVER seen of Nobunaga's Ambition for PS2, also. :D

I was really indecisive ;.; there are SO many games I want. I think I will go grab Persona 4 too (which Aurora on LJ very kindly reminded me about) and a PS3 game. That's *plenty* of games for the next few months. I tend to actually stockpile them... I'm a bit of a game packrat, but sooner or later I DO play them. ^^:

I keep wondering if I should've just grabbed Persona 4 instead. I was just less inclined to get it right away because it's newer and more likely to still be in stock. (The video game chain around here, Game Buzz, really favors Atlus games for some reason.)

Games:
- Mana Khemia (PS2)
- Baroque (PS2)
- The World Ends With You (DS)

Music:
- Diamanda Galas, Guilty Guilty Guilty
- Portishead, Third (Ltd. Edition Boxed Set)
- Thrice, The Alchemy Index Vols I & II

Any cash I get will contribute to my computer upgrade, which *hopefully* I will be able to pay. Apparently my inlaws want to help with it, too, since they didn't know what else to give me for my birthday. Well, that works. I need all the money I can get! n.n

Also, I MAY get a Hosting Matters account as a treat to myself. Most likely the B500 package, which is $8 a month or $24 quarterly.
