Hi_2k's Journal: Time was

Just got home, and I'm not sure what to write tonight. Mostly, this blog has been about my pain and fears, my hopes and sorrows, and the people I interact with. I've interacted with others today, but it's been a bright day. Fun for all, I did some things I wanted to do, and I feel better. However, every Saturday I feel better, then Sunday comes and school is just around the corner and I get depressed again.

My Best friend, R, is having a birthday party tomorrow. He mentioned yesterday that he had been playing Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (the GBA based sequel) on his GBA emulator, so I decided get him that. We're both collectors of games: Having them around and in a library is important. Piracy, while good for knowing what's good, is bad.

G2 will be there. The party is basically just going to a movie, so I'll probably sit next to her. She wrote about me in her blog today... Said she had had a dream where I had died (How, exactly, she didn't remember) and she was really sad. I'm going to take that as a good sign for romance, but I never like to have people predict my death.

I spent most of the afternoon playing D+D at a friend's house. It was fun... I'm the DM, which gives me a certain feeling of power. Currently, the party is trapped in a secret research facility where Mages were working on making larger, more powerful Gate spells when the demon wards failed. It took them a surprisingly long time to get that it was based on Doom, though one member kept saying that it must be based off something and suggesting books and games that it might be based on. I even played a little bit of music to give him some hints: A little bit of 9 Inch Nails, Sympathy for the Devil, The Doom Song, and then finally the Doom 3 theme. Nobody got it. None of them were big FPS fans, though, so I guess I can't blame them.

D&D

Been a long, long time since I played that. Years, actually. I am assuming you played with pencil & paper, with the little lead figurines and the whole works? (Bringing back memories of my main character, a LG halfling fighter... haven't thought about that in a long time, either.)

We're kinda cheap, so we've only got plastic figures, but yeah. I've got my dad's old books and dice bag, and we marvel at the artifacts of days gone by. It doesn't get any better, though, than the first edition player's handbook cover illustration. It captures the spirit of the game so perfectly.

speak for yourself but

i got the more expensive metal figure of a scout sniper(=p). Which reminds me, how did it go sat, i wasnt there due to an endless day of bullshit. I guess they really did need me there to interpret some fps games for them... oh and what happened to the doppelganger insodent, did Jimmy and me jump out, leaving rohan to fight him alone like planned? =p.
