goodness, an actual livejournal post. but dont get excited, its not very interesting, i wanted to get some thoughts out of my head, but they will likely be far too emo, mawkish, irrelevant, and lengthy to be of any real interest to anyone else. So! i have created a handy cut tag thing

Hope the hospital trip goes well (at least, as well as hospital trips can be expected to go). For what it's worth, I miss you and your good lady friend, and I hope the health stuff gets sorted so we can catch up and play something together at some point. But don't be getting all stressed about what you "should" have done with regards to 'strom, or any other system - if anyone actually did think badly of you for being too ill to show up (and I very much doubt anyone did), then those people are douchenozzles who do not deserve to be thought of or spoken of.

'Strom fell off the radar for me last year. Too much time, brainpower, money and transport logistics to figure out, and I never really felt like I "settled in" to the system like everyone else seemed to have done. LT is off the radar for me this year as well (impending babies play havoc with your schedule). Odyssey left me pretty cold after the first event, and reports that most of the broken stuff remained broken in the second event.

Still, next year - when you're better and I can pry myself away from the sprog (or bring him with me, I guess), we should Play a Thing. Empire, or some one-shot things, or a bit of tabletop somehow. Something. It'd be good to see you again.

dont worry about the larp thing! real life is more important (and more interesting, you are going to have a child! do you know what class your going to try and get it to be? or will you let it do one of those things you get in modern rpgs like fallout where you watch it closely and base its class on the things it shows an interest in early on?)

would be ace to meet up

I'm hoping he'll be in the Geek/Hacker class, since that's the one I know how to level up the most quickly and well. I'm under the impression that parents only get a limited amount of say in the class selection process, though. If he rebels and turns out to be a Sports Jock, or a Meow Meow Junkie (WTF even IS Meow Meow anyway?), or (this being Surrey) some kind of Socialite with a special skill in Equestrianism, I'll just have to figure out how to make the best of it.
