I started playing
Dofus last night. It's a cute little MMORPG that is holding an open beta test now. The game I can think of that it is most similar to is Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, which is definitely not a bad thing.
qarylla also installed it, and we will presumably be delving into it a bit tonight. It's free and works on PC, Mac or Linux, so you have no excuse not to try it. Look for me as AuricOfTheHollowwood (most likely), TenjouUtena, GalarOkunnush, RosaFarrell or LezardValeth.
There is a 0 in the tens digit of my weight for the first time since... well, I have no idea, but when I moved out of my parents' house, there was a 3 there instead. "Stop eating so much, and do everything else the same" seems to be working well for me - I have lost just shy of 5 pounds since I started literallyv counting calories 15 days ago. I am keeping to my goal on non-social days, and going over by less on days when I am exposed to large amounts of snackable food. And I already know how much I can eat and still afford nachos when I see the Red Sox with
georgy et al. on Sunday. Now to change the first digit...
true20pern is going... interestingly. I gave the one player I could trust a bronze dragon, and all he wants to do is heal people while sober and spend as little time sober as possible. In the meantime, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-On-Time's brown flew
middle_sis' queen (damn his dice!) and become Weyrleader. On the other hand, these two characters have hated each other for a couple years of game time, so I can work with this. I am doing horrible at peripheral work, but everyone seems to be having fun and not noticing how rarely I actually pay attention to what my die says.
Chibi-
thastygliax is very cute.
