Arrival, in the figurative sense.

dewingedWell, I did get through Wednesday well enough. I kept myself busy at work, and just accepted what was. My sister and one of my other cousins visited Ground Zero and had dinner in NYC for the day. Dad's been home all this week from the operation, but he has the sick leave time because of what happened. Also, my brother gave me a belated birthday present this past Sunday (Note: My Birthday is in July. Calling it 'Belated' is being overly kind). It was one of his old cel-phones, and money to buy minutes on the card.
And, there's also MUSH news, as usual. :)
Ok, XMA. I responded to a post, and I'm basically the Out-of-Character Contact for the New Mutants on the game. Like, say, if people want to join the team, I'd be the contact person. And, I have one person I think is going to approach me about it, and two others who already have. And the two I /have/ discussed the team with Out-of-Character have some really good ideas for their characters, and seem to be team players and friendly overall. This heartens me, a lot. :) I love the NMs. We're a close group, In Character and Out of Character for the most part, due to shared IC experiences like any group. And the X-Men, on top of that. I like the dynamics there, and I have a teammate to rescue with my friends. That's so going to rock, mostly because players like Kaibara and Ruby_bagonia rock my freakin' world. :) On top of that, I'm getting a better grasp of my alt there as well, and want to see things develop with him. Must hang out with Gamerguy's character a lot more often, and get more involved.
Then, MXT. I'm going to admit this: going into this week, with some notable exceptions (namely, Foomf and Iceraver), the RP there was starting to...sadden me. The above two people excepted, I was in scene after scene with twinky players, poor spellers, and two-word posers. (Note: I hadn't RP'd with TsunamiUK yet by the point I was feeling this way.) It was annoying. I feel bad admitting it, but it was really making me lose the urge to Roleplay there, especially when one person I've been trying to avoid started ending up in Every Scene I decided to walk in to. But...then came Tuesday. 5 people, one fight, one rescue. And it is now on the list of the 5 best scenes I think I've been in. Just...phenominal. After that scene ended(3:30 AM for me, so I sleptwalk through Wednesday, which is how I coped with 9/11/02), I had felt...like I'd arrived there, you know? Like...okay, yeah, this is /so/ worth it. Add to that Wednesday's scene. This scene was the personal/reflective/non-action scene that balanced out the Horseman-Butt-Kicking action on Tuesday. Just powerful stuff, all around, and I remember logging off with the biggest smile, thanks to TsunamiUK and Foomf. Just...thanks, guys. Unreal.
And I have a ton of free time this weekend, thank God. Once I catch up on lost sleep, I'll be cool. :)

Love.
