I have been having great fun playing around with South Korean skincare methods this year. (Check January 11th for my last update about such). Over the last couple of months I’ve got really into tissue masks and essences and this week I’ve been trying out serums and night masks. Next week after thoroughly enjoying the … Read More
I rather enjoyed today’s Live Roleplay at LURPS. It was Far Shores, a system I have never particularly been into, and I was monstering. Similar to last night I lucked out in playing a number of gun emplacements, unmoving but calling amusing amounts of ranged damage. Then a very intense NPC at the end with … Read More
I enjoy roleplay a great deal but I have an abhorrence for the sort of drama that some people seem to enjoy from particularly Live Roleplay. The idea of creating a social or other event entirely around my own character would seem to fall into that category. I say would seem, as tonight I got … Read More
I am laying on the sofa listening to (and half watching) a YouTube playlist of Leonard Cohen music. The Jellicle is upstairs sorting her medical stuff and Weasel is out. I am reflecting that I cannot imagine a life without music. Every so often on Desert Island Discs or in the pub or something I … Read More
Being tired when I wake up (especially when I’ve got a good night’s sleep) is always something that feels very unfair. Eye ache and head ache and just everything ache is very frustrating. I’m starting this week the the best of intentions though, all the water will be mine, I will be hydrated to fuck! … Read More
Yesterday I fucked up in a way I haven’t for years. Communication via text is always problematic for me but yesterday was completely and utterly spectacular on my part. Having anticipated a difficult conversation I suddenly found myself misunderstood by two people I assumed wouldn’t misunderstand me. The conversation went completely backwards to my expectations … Read More
I’ve written before about having been a Girl Guide and maybe mentioned that The Jellicle thinks they’re some kind of secret cult organisation. Today is Thinking Day, which is the day celebrated as a sort of founding day by most Guides and Brownies and Scouts. The weirdness that is having the same birthday as your … Read More
I’m a very goal oriented person. I need to have something to aim for, often, the wilder the aim the more likely I am to do it. Hence the Ninja Warrior thing I guess. But it’s weird, the goal becomes my complete obsession, all I can think about, tonight Tiny Blonde Keener became LARP Rep … Read More
Last year I decided to stand for a student society executive for the first time in well… actually only four years but the webmistress position for the old Pagan Society wasn’t exactly an active role. So it felt like more like over ten years. Certainly it’s over ten years since I was a university student … Read More
One of my abiding memories from Japan is getting invited to a salon with some ladies who worked with Skimble and them poking fun at her for not having a skincare/beauty regime. Then explaining that it was delightful I was proud of mine (cleanse, tone, moisturise, use a witch-hazel stick on my spots) but that … Read More
