RPoL slimming down, immigration news, WoT!

I left a record number of rpol games lately. Just... a lot of really slow games, and games I wasn't all that interested in after the fact.

Incidentally I'm only in ONE FFRPG game now. And I had joined a HUGE amount of them just a month or so ago! I'm sad about losing the chance to play Irina, who was one of my faves. Just, the game didn't have the right pace and level of description for me.

Right now I'm trying to work my way into a game where I'm playing a No Moon, Tlatcha. She's a lynx totem, a sorceress, and has a theme concerning dreams with significant, even prophetic meaning. She's a Haslanti Dreamseer and gets called southward by a dream quest, thereafter getting involved in the game plot. Also one of my youngest chars, probably around 17-18 years old.

The GM is taking a lot of time writing out setting detail while working with the backgrounds and motivations of the PCs. I like that he's detail oriented, but I hope he'll actually have the drive to keep up the game itself once it starts. That's usually the difficult part. I see plenty more rpol games die than live.

Diamanda Concert! +quick update

I'll be gone all evening/night I'm going to the Diamanda Galás concert in Montreal! OMG! I don't know what to say, except I'm just shocked and amazed I'm going!

Also, I've reached a point I've caught up with most of my RPoL stuff. I have Outcastes running every other day-ish, Five Coils maybe 2-3 days ish, and Academy every day, while I get through the Festival of Journeys event.

A lot of games I've joined have either slowed down or died, too... so... now I want to pay more attention to my own health. Namely, sleeping regularly (and ENOUGH for my body not to be constantly weary all day), eating regularly and incorporating more exercise. I'm worried about languishing too much during winter, which always triggers my hibernation mode, so gotta build some sort of momentum while it's still autumn.

I will be back with a concert report most likely! :D

P.S. as for Slicehost stuff, no, I haven't forgotten it! I've just decided I will resume with installing the mirror site next week.

Yearning for (self) independence.

Latest random RP idea: Utena-ish game. Thinking of running it in OVA system (not Original Video Animation but Open Versatile Anime RPG), but need to get a hold of the PDF.

I've been joining SO MANY FFRPG games lately (even a homebrew one that's neither d100 or d6, but some sort of funky mashup of every RPG I've ever played). Now that Academy is slowly dying, and my interest in my other games is becoming questionable, I just keep wanting to join games instead. To be fair, Outcastes is going a bit better lately, but I'm still worried about whether I'll still be up to running Five Coils after how much DRAMA it caused me.

You'd think I'd go and do something better with my life instead... :P

I have been exercising a bit more and going out a bit more but lately I'm having a lot of trouble due to over-sensitivity to loud noises. Like, I cringe when horns are honked, or people yelling, and just plain have to plug my ears if there's loud things like badly maintained engines, construction work, etc.) So that makes it hard to go anywhere, again. There's always SOME sort of reason.

Shopping spreeeeee

Damn, shopping yesterday freaking exhausted me. I don't know why. I wonder if I got some sort of cold or illness or something in the air cause I got SUPER LETHARGIC after.

Anyway I bought stuff! Mostly clothes :o (Sigh, I hate my body shape... it's so hard to find pants now!) I also got the second Godspeaker book (The Riven Kingdom), reading these is like candy!

And I bought Knights in the Nightmare, playing the tutorial is making me go "wat" with how stylus heavy the game is. This isn't a bad thing, but having to do all that dragging the wisp around WHILE DODGING BULLETS! Aieee! I'll get used to it, but it still amuses the heck out of me. I'll probably also get my butt kicked like I did with Rondo of Swords. (Sting makes evil hard games!)

It continues to be incredibly hot. x.x HELP. Actually, it's mostly humidity, so it's hot AND stormy, and I'm anxious about being caught in a thunderstorm cause the loud noise scares me. I need to try going out more though, and exercising more too, or I'll never get rid of the extra weight I packed on since last year. :/

Life blurbs + some musing on learning a 2nd language.

Looks like I won't be going to visit inlaws this week. It may be a couple weeks from now. Jon and I may take a day off toward the end of the week instead, maybe go and stay at a hotel for a night. :) We do that sometimes just to get away from distractions and be together.

Reasons for postponing the visit are many. Mood, bad timing, etc. One of the more important issues is that I'm waiting for my check card to come in and don't want to be away from the apartment when it comes.

Also, I'm trying to finalize my early withdrawal from Concordia. I'm not totally happy about it, as I've said before, but on the other hand knowing I'm NOT going has improved my mood somewhat. Before, when I was in this constant "I'm not sure if I'm going or not!!!" situation, the lack of certainty negatively affected my mood a LOT. Well, now I just won't reapply until I have all the other documents ready. :/ Which with lawyer help, I can only hope will be next year.
