further to my paleness comments, I went out for a local free festival day yesterday. It was hot, the sun was shining. I was applying factor 40 spf regularly.

While I luckily didn't burn, my freckles have multiplied like rabbits.

I am part irish, and very, very, pale. In winter I am see-through/blue toned. The closest I get to a tan is a faint biscuity shade. More than ten mins without at least factor 20 in the sun and I start to freckle. Mor than about 40 minutes and I start to burn.

You see, I'm uk based and currently annoyed that Dr Who is being put aside for the eurovision song contest this weekend.
So I have new doctor who. With david tennant, possibly the hottest doctor who ever. Soooo geekhot.

I dunno. It did make me threaten someone with raping their eyes with my spear. And tell people I would kill them as I slept.

Last night was the Gamesoc party/election. During the 'joke' positions (the ones you don't have to be a Uni member for) I was drunk and got pushed forward to run for Violence Officer. I won. Apparently I must be in charge of Violence within Gamesoc.

I am never drinking southern comfort again.

We used to LARP in public pretty frequently, back in the mid-90's. The number of times the Campus Police stopped a group of us dressed as demons or Nosferatu and said "Oh, it's just you guys again. Never mind.", boggles my mind. We LARP around the local Campus a lot. In summer, when lots of people ...

Last night when discussing How to take down a corporation subsidised by Pentex: 'I hope to see the headlines next week- 'BRE executive in Child Prostitution scandal' (the plan was spread rumours, leak stories to the press and basically cause their lawyers so much hassle with little stuff that when w...

From my boy's mage game that he played a while ago:
Background- a party member had gone misisng and they were trying to find :something: to get a life pattern off to track him.
'Ah! Hairbrush!'
'But there's no DNA in hair!'
'But there is in Hair follicles. GM, can I get a follicle roll on this Hair?'

ahh, going to larps in-costume. the even more fun part is going for after-game coffee at denny's in-costume. i'm sure thedon can tell you more about that one...hehehe last night there was a gig on up there. And the upstairs loos were bust, so we were all wandering around in costume. There were tons...

Ok, at work once, I was talking to some of my colleagues and laughinly said 'I'm such a geek' when talking about my hobies. They acted all shocked and sai 'DOn't say that! You're not!' so I gently mentioned that I roleplayed, read Sci-fi and fantasy books, played computer games, and partook in any n...

Talking of live action, I am all dressed up ready to go the one held at our local uni. We can't get changed there, ther's not facilities, so it's always amusing to see people looks when youu're wandering around dressed up in character. Especially as I am currently the gutter-tramp Brujah I play for ...

I am a very happy girl. I doscovered lots of good comics last year, and I'm looking forward to same this year.

And my walk to work happens to go past my favourite local comics store.... *joy*

I'm a BiIG fan of Tom Holt and Robert Rankin. Both quite surreal and funny fantasy stories.
And every time I meet Robert he gets drunk and propositions me

without my glasses I can see clearly to arms length. Everything further than that is a blur.

yeah, to be fair, last time my boyfriend staed out all night I screamed at him down the phone and told him if he didn't get his jerky self back home he'd be sleeping on the sofa-bed for the next three weeks. Don't jump to conclusions people. She seems the annoying type, but what if our preconception...

.... Gigantic Cube of Doom (tm)?

Oh, how I hate when that happens.
I've had wholeevenings of it. Sometimes I've lost characters that way.

Hi. I'm SickandCute (relatively regular poster on Ghastly), just back from work, going to start cooking dinner in a little bit I live in Norwich, England, which is a lot more forward thinking (especially about gaming, anime and the other reserves of geekdom) than a lot of people think. My boy showed...

My father taught me to read with Lord of The Rings. It all started there... I spent most of my youth reading obsessively through various fantasy books, just what I could find. It wasn't much, living in a small english village. I started roleplaying online at about the age of 14, but as I was so mass...
