| 11:25 pm | Behind The Mask. I'm 28 years old and I've been roleplaying for over six years, but I've been writing for longer than that. Since always. I'm an avid journaler and aspiring novelist. I prefer journal-based threading. I work full time and enjoy an active social life, so I don't always have time to hang out on AIM to scene. When I am online, I'm always interested in discussing our lines. I only write in third person, storybook format, and would prefer you write this way, too. I don't discriminate based on tag-length. I believe that certain situations call for quick, well-thought-out responses to move plot forward, but I can also appreciate lengthy paragraphs, as long as it adds to the storyline and doesn't detract from it. Poor grammar is a major pet peeve of mine. Roleplay is a writing-based hobby, and it's difficult for me to find a character's voice if I have to wade through a reply that looks like a txt msg. I usually prefer to fade to black on sex scenes, unless the scene is meant to serve a specific purpose in the development of the characters. I will play males or females. I feel that my male characters are stronger than the females, mostly because I can't seem to keep lines with my girls alive. ( What I'm Looking For ) Drop me a line in a comment below.

| 8:51 pm | In Los Angeles, things always went from mild to hot in a ridiculously short amount of time. Samir really couldn't take the heat -- he was not some cold-blooded, sun-loving lizard. Well, he did love the sun, but he couldn't stand the heat. There were so many nights spent laying sprawled out naked on the bare kitchen floor of his tiny shithole apartment, skin stuck with sweat and still feeling too hot to sleep. the air conditioner was of questionable working order. There was little left to do but surrender to the heat and hope for the best. ( The sickening sensation of unsticking his bare skin from the peeling linoleum ) |

| 9:18 am | Movie Meme. Stolen from Lambert. In each letter slot, you should know a movie. If you take this from someone else, you should try and use a different movie than the person before you. Try and be creative, and use movies you've seen, or older movies from the 80's. Do cheat and look at your own movie collection. If you do seek out help, be sure to bold the movie name. There is no shame in getting stumped. I stole this from ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} apple_bottom. I also saw that Danforth did it, but I didn't peek at his answers before doing it... Now I'm gonna go see if any of mine overlapped with his!( Let's Go To The Movies! ) Current Mood:  pleasedCurrent Music: Waterloo || Mamma Mia soundtrack |

| 1:43 pm | Okay. So I'm in love love love with this game. Unfortunately, the female-to-male ratio is almost 2:1 ...and I'm the one who plays most of the penises in all of my lines. So if you or any of your friends likes to PB males, give me a shout, 'cause we're sorely in need.  There's also a new PB game being created that's based in Minneapolis. You bet your ass I'm keeping an eye on that bad boy. GAH. I miss that city so fucking much. Current Mood:  creativeCurrent Music: Dead In The Water || David Gray |

| 2:48 pm | Thank goodness. So, something amazing happened to me this past weekend. I got an absolutely amazing opportunity to spend Thanksgiving in Tacoma with Laurie and Gel and their whole clan. Let me just take some time to talk about the awesomeness that was involved. Seriously. Laurie, my hero and the resident genius on my payroll, asked her aunt who works for Alaska/Horizon Airlines if I could use two of her guest passes to fly to Seattle for the holiday. Somehow, it happened. Somehow, it all came together. Step by step I was booking flights, booking hotels, booking long-term parking for my car, and driving to Phoenix to spend Wednesday night there before flying out early Thursday morning. Wednesday was hectic and crazy, but kind of in a good way. Per a previous arrangement with my boss, Perlinda, I arrived at school at 8:00am instead of my normal 8:30am so I could take an hour long lunch -- Borders was having a pre-Thanksgiving super sale, and I wanted to get seasons 1 & 2 of Dexter on dvd at a really good price. So I called ahead, found the store where I would try first, and bounced along through my whole work day, the way I always do right before a holiday. I lucked out and got both of them, just as I wanted, plus some other movies for Christmas gifts, then fueled up so I'd have a full gas tank and be ready to leave right at 2:30pm when I got off. I left school and discovered I didn't have my GPS in the car with me, which was my planned travel aide for the trip to Phoenix. Before leaving town, I tore apart my room and my old room at Luna's. Didn't find it, so some last minute MapQuesting got me on my way. I never expected to run into horrible weather on the way to Phoenix, but there was rain and fog, so I had to crawl along the skinny highway at a turtle's pace. It took me seven hours to make the journey. It was awful, and I was kind of tense -- I always get anxious when I'm going somewhere I'm not familiar with and it's dark and the roads are narrow and there are cars blinding me and rain and fog. I don't think that's totally unreasonable. It would be one thing if the route to Phoenix was all major freeways, but it was only freeway for about half of the journey, then it was narrow, winding highways through the mountains... basically a traffic accident waiting to happen. But then... all of the sudden, after turning onto AZ-87, the dark landscape completely changed. I could see a light gray glow from the nearby lights of civilization, and in that glow I saw silhouettes of saguaro cactuses everywhere. It was unreal -- like, I've seen pictures of them, but haven't actually ever seen one in purpose. For those of you who aren't familiar with the saguaro, it's the cactus most people think of when they think of a cactus -- tall, with long arms curving up to the sky. It was spectacular, and I could feel that I was getting close. My hotel in Phoenix was superb. If anyone is going there and needs a hotel, I highly recommend the Sleep Inn near the airport. Flying standby is terrifying and nervewracking. Even though Laurie assured me that there were plenty of seats left on the flight, something prohibited the airline staff from clearing the standby passengers until something like... fifteen minutes before we were supposed to take off. But I made it on the plane, and was in the air in no time. I used my two and a half hours to pound out an unreal 3,500 words for my NaNoWriMo, and before I knew it, I was at SeaTac, climbing into a car with Laurie and her brother, Brad. The best part about this little trip? It was a surprise for Gel. We bombed along in the car, stopping off to pick up their friend Catrina, who I'd only heard about, never met (obviously), then zipped off back to their house in Tacoma. There, I entered the world of a zillion cats (Emmy, Tiger, Mojo, Gizmo, Precious, Sebastian, and Angel -- I think that's it!), where Gel was still sleeping. I made myself at home in Laurie's room in the basement, where we stayed and chatted for a few moments until Gel came downstairs and walked in to see me sitting on Laurie's bed. She was surprised. It was awesome. I got lots of hugs and I'm pretty sure she couldn't believe I was there... but, to be honest, I couldn't believe I was there, either. Oh man, and then I met the baby. Such a beautiful boy. Little David is hands down the cutest kid on the planet. I was even brave and held him a few times, and fed him! Even though I was scared to. Gosh, how silly is it to be scared of babies? Really silly! Except when you think that you're holding something in your hands that's more precious to someone than any amount of money or any possession. Then it becomes a big deal, and you don't want to break it! It was cool to see Brad and Gel together, and to see the way they work as a couple and as parents. Brad's my age, and he's so good with his son. I can't think of many guys my age who have that level of maturity. But I guess it's a learned thing, isn't it? They've both had two months, almost three, of this parenting gig, and they look like naturals. It's so awesome. We all laughed, played board games constantly, and helped put together dinner. I don't feel like I contributed much with the food making, and I'm sure they'd argue that I was the guest so I didn't have to, but I still felt kind of bad. But I had so much fun, even though I was tired before dinner even arrived. I absolutely loved being there for Thanksgiving. It was just the right kind of atmosphere. It almost felt like how quasi-grown up people might spend their holiday -- like on Friends when there are just a group of people, the found family, together to celebrate each other's company. My two days of travel beforehand had me knackered even before the tryptophan had a chance to kick in. When dinner was done, I crawled downstairs to Laurie's bed to take a nap after giving explicit instructions to be woken up if anything fun was about to happen. A few hours later, I was temporarily roused and asked if I wanted to get up or if I wanted to sleep. I chose sleep, and ended up passing out and not waking up until... morning. I swear, I slept for over fourteen hours. I must've needed it. My time at the house was mostly spent enjoying the company of these girls I adore so much. I don' think I've ever played so many games of Sorry, Clue, and Life -- and I never got tired of it. It was just as unreal to leave as it had been to come in the first place. Brad, Gel, Laurie, David, and I all piled into the car and we headed back to the airport. I fed David his bottle in the back seat, and when he was done eating, he fell asleep with his little hand wrapped around my pinky finger. It was a shared moment, certainly -- that kid's successfully wrapped himself around my heart. I made my standby flight, and pounded out the remainder of my word count on the flight -- I finished my NaNoWriMo by meeting my goal, and ending up with 50,600 words. I'm so incredibly proud of myself. Maybe next year, I'll aim for a completed narrative PLUS the word count goal. After an uneventful, very chill evening in a Super 8, which is officially my favorite motel chain, I've decided, I took a leisurely drive back to Albuquerque from Phoenix, stopping along the way to take pictures of the cactuses. I even took a slight detour out to Saguaro Lake just to take pictures -- turns out the squirrelly MapQuest route was breathtakingly beautiful. What a fantastic weekend. I'm so thankful for all of it, and so fortunate. I love my friends. Current Mood: satisfiedCurrent Music: Losing Touch || The Killers |

| 1:15 pm | You know... I'm actually rather pleased that this is where I ended up. The sorting hat says that I belong in Hufflepuff!  Said Hufflepuff, "I'll teach the lot, and treat them just the same." Hufflepuff students are friendly, fair-minded, modest, and hard-working. A well-known member was Cedric Diggory, who represented Hogwarts in the most recent Triwizard Tournament. Take the most scientific Harry Potter Quiz ever created.

| 1:07 pm | Everything Is Average Nowadays. Last night, I had the best revelation in the world. I was sitting on the couch, next to Hunter, watching Tampa Bay lose the first game of the World Series (bastards), and I realized that when I think of Hunter, I don't have this whole awkwardness that overcomes me whenever I'm around a member of the opposite sex. I think, for better or worse, when I'm around Hunter, it's not about the fact that I'm a girl and he's a boy. We're just people. Now, if only I could find such a relationship with another human being, life would be peachy. Current Mood:  okayCurrent Music: Kaiser Chiefs |
