Good morning! Knew you were lurking around somewhere. And yes, I luuurrrve that hair, although I've only worn it once, and that's when the picture was taken! This Kith thingy is some role-playing reference, I take it? Are you smitten with the identity-crisis bug too?
Don't know about him, but I definitely do. Although I have no crisis of identity thankyou very much. I know exactly who I am. I just like to take a break every now and then.
Plus, since I do live roleplay as well, I get to look cool as my psionic assassin.
I prefer fantasy live roleplay to re-enactment, although I've done a bit of that too.
There's something fun about smugly folding your arms and saying a couple of words, and watching the person playing the monster have to crumple as if someone had just dipped their fingers inside their skull and stirred. (Which, in character, is almost exactly what happened.)
Hmmm...think I'd rather get dressed up and hit something, tho' I'll admit I don't really 'get' re-enactment because it's all a matter of speculation anyway and some people get awfully steamed up about the 'right' way to have a battle.
Oh I do that as well- people don't expect the assasin to use a bastard sword. But there's something very satisfying about thumping someone with what amounts to a padded stick.
But the simple answer is yes and not as much as I'd like. I play D&D pencil and paper and online, and have recently acquired the Vampire: The Masquerade books and am reading up on that, not that I'll have anyone to play with.
This may surprise you, but I got thrown out of the brownies 'cos I was a bit aggressive. Only as a child, you understand. And I still don't like kids. Or bobble hats.
People get selective amnesia when they have kids (or grandkids). Those who know me also know that I loathe children, but apparently also hold the mistaken belief that I can't possibly mean THEIR child, because THEIR child is the best thing since...ever. Well, I'm here to tell you that no, your child is no more appealing than the last snot-nosed, staring little weirdo who passed this way and no, I don't want to say hello (although goodbye appeals). Perhaps it's a result of having seen too many Children of the Corn horror films, combined with the fact that kids never seem to blink. Not when they're staring at me, anyway. AND they even stop crying when I get near them - perhaps I should rent myself out to parents of difficult children.
Okay, I'll try and slow down a bit- maybe I'll play a computer game while I wait or something. The problem with being cooped up at home is I have a tiny room and a computer, and that's pretty much all I have to keep me entertained...
