Playin' Games

Yesterday afternoon, my Discman was between tracks and I hear my cellphone -- eventually. It's my voicemail, and it's bearing a message from Andy P. Andy P says, "Hey, I've got a free evening. If everyone else is available (and most of them are), why don't we do 7th Sea?" Turns out all of them were, including me, and we had a gaming session. Well, if you want to call it that. Mostly it was faff, faff and more faff as it turned out the Indian takeaway we normally order from isn't open on Tuesdays, I got handed books that have been out on loan so long I'm still not sure they're mine and we aired Kat and Toos' new Sims 2 addiction. (Predominantly Kat's new Sims 2 addiction.) We eventually cliffhung as the group went to an opera in Paix and some yahoo lit a bomb. First the Inquisition mess, now this. I knew there was going to be shit when Andy P brought out the Rilasciare book.

In other news, the crappy day I was having was intensely lightened by jeremiahtomasi's first proper journal entry. I was giggling about that for hours. Now all I need is kuo_li's journal and a couple of mentor letters and I can reupload the bloody site. Again. (Still no damn domain. I'm going to have to write to these people.) I also managed to make Toos extremely bloody paranoid about Lucius' mentor. Scheme, scheme, plot, plot. ^_^

Unfortunately, it was a late night, the headache's still there, I'm feeling nauseous, the wisdom teeth are giving me gyp again and in general, there are no words to express how much I don't want to be here. I so much wanted to stay in bed and ring in sick but I couldn't justify it to myself. In short, I am a noob. NOOOOOB!

It's a people thing, innit?

...

cholten99: (in living room) **relates details of plot of Dead Like Me episode he downloaded**
thessalian: (in my room) Has it ever occurred to you that if I was particularly interested in the plot, I'd be watching the show?
cholten99: Meh.

I think I might be too sarcastic. But I'm tired, my head hurts, my jaw hurts and I don't really like getting plot second-hand. I just want to go to bed, which I will do in a minute. This just confused me.

It's a people thing, innit? Well, maybe it's a him thing, I dunno. I'd be cool with Dead Like Me or whatever if I'd been watching it from the beginning of the episode at least, or if he'd asked if I was interested, or something. But he didn't. But maybe I'm not being fair about this. Should I be taking the trans-wall recap with good grace?

Oh, hell with it.
