In the spirit of updates and such, I suppose I should offer one up, even though most of my attention blogwise is concentrated on that raging history thread down there. That having been said:
Lots of school. I have more reading than I care to think about, more work coming than I care to contemplate. This is, however, the last of it for a time. In case I haven't made this entirely clear, it does appear as if I will be going to England in the spring. So if I make it through this term, I'm free and clear. This is good.
My creative urges are running rampant lately. I've done some more work for Alsherok, and even gotten further in my revision of Tharavelan history. Almost done with the timeline for that, in fact. One more sitting should do it. I need to sit down again and look at races and classes with a critical eye once more, and rewrite a few things for the historical changes, and fix the map again, but that's...it, pretty much. Having been poking the thing for something like 3.5 years, that's sort of frightening.
I blame the resurgance on my having done some actual fiction reading for the first time in a while. That Adventurers link has been sitting sort of unobtrusively over there for years now, and I've kept up with the author's various ramblings over on his site out of some strange sense of fan loyalty. Well, he's started writing them again, I've started reading them again, and that always makes me want to go work on something. Creativity breeds creativity. Yeah.
Too, I probably just want to play. The gang is about to go tackle that annoyingly large monster again, except we haven't for like two weeks because of school and the stupid Superbowl. Football sucks. Grrrrrrrr.
Not a word, Marechal. Not a word. You either, Cole.
Also, I'm bloody well starving. My fault for not really eating dinner today, though I did have a bag of jerky. I almost had a second, but that bag is sort of bloated and has drops of some liquid or another on the inside, and I don't trust it. So it's just me and the animal crackers, and they're not filling me up enough. I'm absolutely dying for some pasta right now, or maybe some fish and chips. *sigh*
Calling the world football championship stupid is just mean. Apologize or be drawn and quartered.
Posted by: Marechal at February 1, 2004 12:17 PMWhat, you mean there's no place that serves pasta or fish and chips within a ten-minute drive of campus? I mean, good grief, fast food places have fish and chips.
Out of curiousity, what sort of cooking facilities do you have in your dorm? Do you have a kitchen near the lounge, or something?
Also, I have heard George Foreman grills are handy, except not for pasta. :P
Posted by: Regina at February 1, 2004 1:17 PMKeep in mind that it was 2:30am when I wrote that. Yeah, there's a couple places open, but not to where I'm going to jump in my car and go there.
We have a floor kitchen. It's pretty scary though. I also have nothing to cook there, more or less because the charred ramen and the strange yellow color in the microwave frighten me.
Posted by: Dwip at February 1, 2004 1:55 PMOh. 2:30 am. That does change things. :P
Posted by: Regina at February 2, 2004 1:57 PMThe Super Bowl is stupid. Football in general isn't very entertaining. Unless the Lions are beating the Packers.
I haven't gamed in weeks. I'm going through withdrawal. Go get your BT stuff.
