Lots of knitting. Lots and lots of knitting. (If you’re on Ravelry, you can see my finished projects.) My hands ache from the knitting, particularly the left because I knit Continental. I think I may have to learn to knit…
Energy Boost
Plinky asked, “What energizes you?” I struggle with major depression (actually, treatment-resistant depression), so it’s difficult to find much that energizes me. However, really great conversation with just a few people does it quite well. The same goes for story games,…
Time Flies
I used to get so annoyed when my mother would say, “Twenty years from now, nobody will know the difference.” She was wrong in a sense—I certainly still know the difference, about so very many things. On the other hand,…
Tired Now
I had a pain doctor appointment last week but wasn’t up to going. So Sam rescheduled it for me, and I headed across town today. Apparently, this was the day for “fitting in” everybody who has canceled an appointment in the…
I missed what?
It was National Grammar Day AND Gamemaster’s Day, and I didn’t realize either until the day was almost over! It was date night, though, and my favorite GM and I did play, so at least there’s that. I’ll have to…
McCain Blogger Flubs His Roll

Good Reads Migration Finished!
That was not painless at all. The import feature is tetchy, at best. I had to go through the entire list of 1300+ books and fix their “bookshelf” assignments as well as add some that just didn’t import at all.…
Linky!
I’m not feeling so good, so I’m mostly posting links. But they’re good ones! Marvelously fun toy: Killjoy Cooking With the Dungeons & Dragons Crowd Gays marry, world does not end
My name is Cynthia, and I am a roleplaying addict
My one and only complaint about gaming with Sam is that I never, ever get enough. He’s just so good, and the stories are so fascinating, that I always want more! I’m just greedy, I guess. Yep, I flubbed my saving…
Date Night–Baby!
We had Chinese food together tonight, and played for a while. There was some ick, but I suspected that it was coming. The happy part is that my character’s oldest son (foster son, really) baby was born. First grandbaby! There…
