Day 333: Wireless wonder
Aug. 12th, 2006 11:51 pmI'm sure this will sound a little backwards in relation so the rush of technology ever becoming faster, smaller, and infinitely more portable, but wireless is pretty cool, if only for the fact that I don't have to be alone at night. I get to have human contact now, even when I'm by myself in the Next Door House. And I started playing an online RPG with Sei, Josh, BenTen, and then last night with some guy who's a high level gamer. Hopefully we'll get to play again tonight, which would be fun. I haven't heard much from Sei all summer, part of which is my fault because I could have written or emailed, but talking to her online - it's almost like she's here.
So my last few nights at work have been simple. I am enjoying the shiny new laptop a lot. Right now it has no name. It is the Shiny New Nameless One, for now. Or Shiny Nanashi for short. I am enjoying the free-form system of online gaming. I talked to BenTen about this earlier, but because I'm a writer I get attached to characters. When we had longer campaigns my first year, I got really attached to my characters, and loved playing them. The character I'm playing now I'm sort of making up on the fly, which is how I write most of my characters in my novel anyway, and now I'm attached to him. I want to keep playing him. I like him lots. And he's a great foil for BenTen's character. The best VtM campaign we ever played was the one she GM'ed and also played. Like the campaign now. I'm liking it lots indeed.
I'm not alone over here, and Logan is alternating checks with me tonight, which is nice.
My sleep schedule has drifted so I stay awake for a couple hours after my shift, and then I rise, a little later, in the evening. Right now I'm just disoriented. It feels weird. It's going to be even weirder when I adjust for school. But adjust I will.
I kinda miss Del, too, which is weird, seeing how in Powell I spent so much time with her. I'm kinda worried about her, and I don't know why. Maybe I'm secretly worried about me but refuse to worry about myself.
Well, I'm going to run a bedcheck, and then attempt to work on my novel until the game starts.
I'm here.
