Stabilizing?

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

I’m hesitant to call it that because there’s still some dregs of issues and tiredness and irritability, but I suppose that may also be the last of the sleeping pills coming out of my system as well. I haven’t taken them since Wednesday and I’m tired and sore but we’ve also still been doing a [...]

Gaming

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

We’ve done quite a bit of new games over the past few months. The long running “London Game” came to a close with the defeat of Mab the ancient dragon, and the characters retired, for the most part.
In it’s stead I’m running what is known as the “low tier” game because everyone is playing characters [...]

Player Kill

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

I had my first player kill in the game we were doing last night. Normally when we play World of Darkness games I actually run. This is the first time in a long time I’ve been actually playing in a game. While Kore is visiting family my husband has been running a game in the [...]

Spring Cleaning Spreads

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

The spring cleaning bug has spread from the house to the websites. Roomie and I have been updating and rearranging a bit on the tarot site, and will be doing more on that in the days to come.
For now though I’m done for the day. I’m just making sure to catch-up on a couple of [...]

When Gaming is Good

Monday, September 29th, 2008

We’ve been playing Rifts with a few of our friends for a couple of months now. The game has always been really, really good, in part because the GM has such knowledge of the Palladium universe and is a born actor and orator and story teller. However, last night’s game was above and beyond.
It’s been [...]

Pandemic 2

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

I’ve been looking for less “real-time” games to play and more games that I can potentially pause and come back to. To that end I’ve found Kongregate which is membership site that’s free and has a lot of flash games which appeal to a variety of tastes. I’ve been having a fun time trying to [...]

New Review: Travian

Monday, July 7th, 2008

I spoke before about the game Travian and how much fun it was, and perhaps it would have continued to be fun for me if I was still on the regular server, but I got bored with how long it was taking to do anything on that server and signed up for the speed server. [...]

Home is Where the Heart is

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Which means where the family is. I do love my family, I really do, but some times I wish my son and feline would be less rough on the curtains. We have a nest of tables which sits between our shoe rack and a DVD cabinet, they’re supposed to keep the munchkin from going back [...]

RPG Sites

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

I’m not a WOW player because I know I would get insanely addicted to the game, and we can’t afford another subscription site, so I was intrigued when a friend told me about an online RP which is similar to the old style Warcraft and Starcraft, is online and is absolutely free. Anything you buy [...]

Finding Bliss

Monday, April 21st, 2008

I downloaded a clearance game to my cell phone last night because I was excited that every time you get to a certain score they donate money to Breast Cancer research. Check out Bliss Donations to Breast Cancer.
The game itself is really addictive, and each time you get to a landmark score something like 1000, [...]
