Holy crap are we packrats. Yesterday evening, The Husband What Rules and I went through three boxes of gaming stuff. Not gaming books, gaming STUFF. These boxes held folder upon folder of old campaign notes, old character sheets, maps, etc… Allow me stress that: THREE BOXES of this crap. Two legal archive boxes and one bigger… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #109 – Are all Geeks packrats?
2009 had it’s ups and downs. We lost Lotus, Wash and Ronin, but we also got a new house, Jimmie and met a whole lot of new awesome friends. On the whole, however, I’m hoping 2010 is better. This year I resolve to finish the two games I’m writing and start sending stories/novel prospectuses off… Read More Happy New Year to all my Geeks!!!
Mostly. There are still a few odds and ends in the old Geek Cave, but mostly we’re in, the new Roomie is in, all the furniture is in, the cats are in… We’re living there. Woo! We are currently two blocks from our favorite Geek-themed coffee house, a game store, a bookstore, several awesome restaurants… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #108 – We’re Moved!
Ok, so I told you I’d be around a little more, perhaps writing a little more often. I lied. The Household What Rules is pulling up stakes and moving back into Seattle proper, where culture lives. Also, where about 80% of our friends live so we can have lives again. Also, we won’t be spending… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #107 – Moving the Household What Rules
Wow! Life has been nuts. Some good, some bad. Last Wednesday we had to put the Elderly Cat to sleep. Ronin was 14, and when he started exhibiting the symptoms of kidney disease we did what we could to make him comfortable and then took him in once he wasn’t. After going through heroic measures… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #106 – Sorry about the radio silence there.
Ok, I don’t know if it’s like this for all geeks, but damn we have a lot of crap. A LOT of crap. We’ve been going through boxes and closets, and trying to divest ourselves of a good chunk of it. I don’t know if all geeks are packrats like this, but an awful lot… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #105 – Man, I have a lot of stuff.
And here I was thinking, “Wow, Marvel and Joe Quesada haven’t done anything to spike my blood presure in weeks!” Ahem. Ok, only the Emma Frost costume looks anything like an actual costume worn by any of the characters. I have totally seen Emma Frost wearing that. Aside from that, FAIL!!!!!!! Are we supposed to… Read More Geek Girls Rule! Flash Update Part the second.
I’ve been blogging over at the California Chapter of NOW’s blog for a while, which explains some of the slowdown over here. And today I did something for them that is equally germane to this blog, but I’m not going to repost it in its entirety, so go there and read it. Essentially, enough… Read More Geek Girls Rule – Flash Update
Ok, so I just posted, but I’m so excited!!! For years, because of a conversation between Deborah Donoghue and Ogre, we’ve been joking about running Amber Family Therapy. This year, I’m doing it! And I just got my player list. This is going to be amazing!!! I have so many excellent gamers involved!!! Holy crap,… Read More AmberCon NW!
Occasionally, not often, but occasionally, I get trolls here. When I do, on those rare occasions, unless they’ve said something actionable in a court of law, I leave them up. I mean, I can’t possibly make them look any dumber than they have themselves. And really, I’m hoping to inspire them to great heights (or… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #104 – Trolly Trolly Troll Troll.
