Gaming Wiki's, West Wing LARPs, and Other Trivia
Yeah yeah...I know. I haven't posted for a while. Honestly? I've been getting tired of talking about the cancer, and lately that seems to be ALL I was able to post about. So I took a break for a while. And if you've been keeping up with britgeekgrrl's journal (and shame on you if you haven't), you'll know we've had some ups and downs lately, and those have kind of pre-occupied me as well. Hopefully I'll get around to posting more often, if only as a means of getting me away from the computer games I've been playing incessantly.
However, just to keep you updated, I do have another surgery coming up sometime before the end of January. This time it's to get a small tumor off my liver. To add to the fun, my gall bladder will have to go as well, as the tumor is just pressing into it, and the surgeon feels it's better to be safe than sorry. I'm probably looking at three to four days recovery in the hospital, which won't be so bad as long as I don't get a next-door neighbor who screams all the time, as I did my last visit. In any case, I should be up and around in plenty of time for DunDraCon.
And that's all I've got to say about that.
...
In other news (and this pertains solely to gaming), does anyone out there know of a really good wiki hosting site? I want to make some pages for my ongoing 7th Sea game, but I know exactly diddily about making and maintaining wikis, and I'd like the process to be as painless as possible. Help?
...
Damn, but does watching New Hampshire Primary results rolling in make me want to run a West Wing-ish LARP when the Democratic and Republican National conventions kick off. Rent a hotel room someplace, invite all my LARP friends to wear their best power suits, and set up a couple of TV's to watch the fun as lobbyists and White House staffers.
I might have to give that some thought.
...
Almost forgot. Got my mail-in ballot for the California Primary today, so that's my reminder for my annual "go out and vote, f*ckers" message. Ready?
Go out and vote, f*ckers.
