This Friday appears to be slow. Not sure if I'm cool with that or not.
I've managed to get a few things done so far. Some bboard posts I wanted to do, as well as finishing a character for a game beginning tomorrow. It's not my usual level of work, but I know the group: on the average, me putting as much energy into characters for RL as I put in online is a wasted effort. The last character I made as such is in a game I am going to drop. This is because most of the players are unwashed, common assholes (note to
usagi_k1: Eric is not one of those. I enjoy his company in any game I play very much. But the rest of them in John's 2nd week game? You know who I mean.). Hell, I'm scared about tonight's game. I know some of the players are jumping to another game, and there's still a few folks-without-games-that-week creeping about, and...well, it's folks I want to not deal with.
Besides, I got a better offer: Chris is, in OCtober, starting up a Storyteller System Aberrant game. I *heart* Aberrant, despite the 'it's kewl to be teh evil' vibes the system gives off. (This can be fixed. All it needs is a little guidance from yours truly.) He e-mailed me last week telling me about running the game. Once I got the confirm it was Storyteller/D10 and not the D20 Aberrant that just came out (Hey, if there's a d20 Aberrant, fine. I like d20, but sometimes I do wanna play different systems. Still waiting to see if someone starts a Big Eyes, Small Mouth Tri-stat game), I found my Aberrant main book, and I've been re-learning it. That was one e-mail. The other came yesterday from Ami, where he said they knew I was having troubles with the other game (bigoted assholes. Yeah, you /think?/), and they would love to have me there. It's nice to feel wanted, yo.
I'm rambling, and I know a few folks won't be able to make heads or tails of this. Sorry about that; gaming does become a code, after a while.
