Character creation is hard, man. People think it’s just as simple as writing down a few traits on a piece of paper-smart, creative, blond- and then maybe deciding if they’re a ‘cloak’ person or ‘chainmail’ kinda guy/girl. Of course, even if this tabletop RPG DID involve that stuff, then there are a million other things …
I’ve been having a few weird thoughts lately, and being out for many hours on end, sometimes alone, doesn’t really help. Luke and I don’t split up too often, but sometimes it happens so we can cover more ground. Then the…thoughts begin. A bit like voices, swirling around like ghosts. I really don’t know, none …
Today I went to get a haircut. My hairdresser was of the silent variety – quite the rarity, in my experience. I was more than happy to flick through a gossip magazine while secretly eavesdropping on the woman in the next chair, who was filling her stylist in on her sister’s flying phobia treatment. I …
I don’t know why everyone makes such a fuss about modern art. In all honesty I think it’s absolutely awful. Basically just a bunch of ever so talented ‘artists’ patting each other on the back for being so alternative and desperately trying to take the number one spot in the ‘even my fellow artists barely …
I’m not ashamed to say that if it’s alternative, I’m all over it. A different type of tea that stimulates both brainpower and the movement of the liver? I’m all over it! Sure, it tastes like cough syrup and swamp water, but that’s just representative of the journey of the artist. We’re constantly being asked …
I have a goat. This is exactly the type of thing people keep blogging about on social network Tumble, except this is actually happening, to me. I went to the farmer’s market with my parents, which was just as lame as it is every year, and I guess someone entered my name in a raffle …
The wedding is two weeks today! As a groom my responsibilities in the wedding planning stages have been dwindling since day one. When we got engaged a year I ago I made it clear I wanted to be fully apart of all the plans. I wanted 50% of the shares in the big day as …
This whole house-hunting campaign is getting to be a bit of drain. Not so much on my spirits; more just on my time. There are only so many spare hours in a day for filling in processing forms, hassling real estate agents for information, and waiting on hold for some bureaucrat in a council planning …
A few years ago, I finally bought a motor home, having dreamed of owning one pretty much my entire adult life. It’s the best, but it’s also a lot of work. On top of everything that needs doing to maintain the average car, there’s a whole lot of extras to attend to. For example, the …
My parents want to go off grid. This comes as a tiny bit of a surprise, given that they’ve never expressed any such sentiment before. On the other hand, they’ve always been full of surprises, so in that sense it’s not surprising at all. It seems that they were inspired to make this transition after …
