Looks like I've booked for Maelstrom 22: Electric Boogaloo.

And a trivia question: Which American sitcom's theme music is inspired by a piece composed for a ballet?

Have a go at this!

Pointless but very excellent flash thingy:

Clicky!

Well, I guess I forgot...

Welp, just past the halfway point of 2009 and its looking a lot better than 2008. Which was, on the whole, really, really crap.

And I mean crap.

It started off with Mum going into hospital for 3 months. Then after she recovered, being unemployed for a long stretch and my computer blowing up spectacularly. Just after posting that last post on LJ. Typical. Finding out that my brother is losing his sight. Finally getting a job, just in time so my first payday was too late for my last chance at actually getting to a LRP event. No LRP in 2008 at all.

This year, I've settled into a job that I quite enjoy... working for the Gov'ment, innit.

Eased myself back into the world of LRPing again, with a couple of LT events, and am enjoying it a lot more now that the head thrashing of my previous job has gone away, got myself a new compy, and life is looking up. Finally.

Might even hit up Maelstrom at event 4.

Wow... uh, its been a while.

Talk about a long while away from LJ.

But I'm baaack. Well, unless I forget.

A band I'd never heard of....

Warning, this animation will have you blubbering like a girl whose pony has died. But its really beautiful, and kinda uplifting at the same time.

woo- bought myself a drum! really sweet sound! (according to my ears anyway, nice resonant bass sounds) Now, how to get it to the next Maelstrom? hmmm...

Oh and in other Maelstrom news, my flavoured-vodka attempt looks like someone has been badly ill into a glass pop-bottle! Thats got to be a good sign... must remember to filter it...

Glad I didn't go to Maelstrom

Mon, 24 Jul 2006 10:32:38 GMT

From the reports on Pag..Rule7 it was a cracking event, but I'm glad I stayed at home, and took the days I'd booked off work as chill-out time. I'm nicely rested (instead of shattered, like I would be at an event) and I don't feel like punching anyone at work. (although the true test is tomorrow)

I also spent my event money on a new toy ;)

Thu, 13 Jul 2006 19:28:22 GMT

Ok, so now we have 'I'm a celebrity! On a horse!', whats next?

Celebrity Croquet? (wonder if Two Jags would be up for it?)
Celebrity Tiddlywinks? (too tactical for most celebrities, I fear)
Celebrity Skateboarding? (actually, that could be quite funny, in a 'Z list celeb faceplants on concrete' type way)
Celebrity Monster Truck Racing?

What minority sports can we get celebrities in on next?

Oh Noes...

I've just realised that the next Maelstrom is at Tolmers again.. I like the site, but getting there is a fucking nightmare.
And after my experiences last time, I'm not fancying the Underground in summer, it was hot and uncomfortable in September, I don't want to know what its like now...

I've bought:...

Fri, 16 Jun 2006 21:21:18 GMT

...one of those awful mobile phone thingies...

After about 3 years of not having one. They've changed a lot.

And also bought Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman and The Scar by China Mieville.

Neverwhere has been frothed about on every single web board I've ever been a member of. It better be good, or I'll have to take revenge... on the entire internet!

In my past life, I was a wardrobe! Anyone want to creak?

In other news, looking forward to Maelstrom, hopefully I won't have to walk the 3 miles to the scout camp from the train station.. that shit hurts!

Oh my god, my aches have aches.

Must start taking my own alcohol again.. £54 spent solely on mead just isn't sustainable...

Oh and chai, uber-chunky soup and banana and chocolate pancakes are the LRP food of the gods!

Oh Great Cthulhu!

I have been an extremely diligent devotee this year.

When the stars were right, I made a burnt offering to the Dead Dreamer (100 points). In November, I stopped orcboy from defiling Lovecraft's grave (-20 points). In April, I sacrificed widereddragon to Cthulhu (500 points). Yesterday, I burnt my copy of the Necronomicon (-75 points). Last week, I defiled the grave of that traitor, Lovecraft (90 points). In December, I called down the wrath of Yog-Sothoth upon oroboras (65 points).

In short, I have been very good (660 points) and deserve to get hooked up with one of those cute Innsmouthers.

Your humble and obedient servant,

Submit your own plea to Cthulhu!

I'm currently hooked on Soul Calibur 3... hence a classic remixed!

I posted this in a forum...

Tue, 15 Nov 2005 06:33:47 GMT

...where people were expressing a lack of comfort with having furries around... and I thought it turned out funny.

"My take on furries-

I know some people who strongly identify with a certain lifeform.
They wear special clothes to make themselves look like this particular lifeform.
They would sincerely love to be this particular lifeform.
One I know has expressed a preference of fucking while wearing his special lifeform-mimicking clothes (but all the others say that thats a bit weird, and he's definitely in the minority).
They have art and photographs of this particular lifeform all around their houses, and can tell you obsure facts about this lifeforms habits and life.

The lifeform?

David Beckham
or
(Special international LJ addition:) Tom Brady

But you don't get people going, 'watch out for those football fans, they're fucking weird, man... they'll dress up like David Beckham(or Tom Brady) and dryhump you to death'"

Sad news...
