You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You'll need to take Athletics for leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia. And possibly Nature to allow you to recognise the larch, the fir, the mighty Scots pine.

GTA-4 question. So I'm house sitting for ND & KT. KT has a game going on. Can I start a new campaign without blowing KT's away? Do I just go to "new"? I just want to make sure I'm not wiping her campaign out.
Also, Wii. Ow. fun! but ow.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
no clue on GTA. I came in to post on the cuteness of geeks. D's birthday is Monday and we're meeting up in the Long Beach area with a probable stop in El Dorado Park where there's an archery range.
My nephew emails, "I guess I should take Deflect Arrows before then, huh?"
I replied, "either that or Cure Moderate Wounds."

D better like his 4th edition books 'cause I just paid retail for these fuckers. And I was so distracted by the price I completely missed that the cute comic book store clerk was hitting on me. He said, "does your boyfriend play D&D?" Which is so totally code for, "do you have a boyfriend?" And he was cute like bandom cute, (can I use bandom as an adjective?) Like he didn't have on black eyeliner but you could tell he'd look reallly good in it. And I said "yes"!.. like a doofus because it's too complicated to explain the best friend/roommate relationship with D. Anyway he was way too young for me.

If anyone is looking for good, moody or atmospheric music for their gaming sessions, I strongly recommend the album Folk Songs by the group Trio Mediaeval. They are a trio of (I believe) Finnish women, singing medieval vocal pieces with minimal accompaniment (including war drums, occasionally).

It IS awesome, Sox. It's a perfect fantasy RPG album. It's got a war song, and a wedding processional, and some happy, dance around the Maypole songs, and various dirges, hymns and prayers.
