Cloth Metal Magnets Walls of Grey

Ignoring my nonsense title, this is a ramble. Wednesday was really slow for me so a lot of posts happened.

I like Staffs more than daggers which I like more than spears which I like more than swords which I like more than axes which I like more than maces.

I like robes, capes and cloth armwraps. I also like beads. I dislike most helmets.

I like stone. I don't like mud.

I tend to dislike magic based systems but don't even notice martial arts systems that allow people to do semi magical things(Naruto works, Potter doesn't).

I love titles. Especially social ones that designate things like gender/age/status.

I love it when villians that are obviously way beyond the reach of the heroes don't bother to even talk to them. I love it when blustery people are ignored with force.

In fiction and games where you play against the computer I don't believe in balanced worlds. Sometimes there simply isn't any way to win. It can be fun to lose.

In games where you are playing other people there has to be balance or its not any fun. It isn't ever fun to lose.

I like empty rooms. I love quiet rooms. I dislike busy places.

This has been a ramble from me. Yay.

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Guildless.

Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

There be too much history.

For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...
