My Folks

Okay I have to say I have the coolest Parents in the entire world.

Not many people are lucky enough to have parents like mine. Yeah we have had our differences and our problems but on a whole we get along and this morning they called me up just to tell me they paid off my Credit Card Debt almost Randomly. It's really freakin amazing of them actually.

I am in total shock I must admit I think I have the world's Coolest parents.

Tales From the Table: Bad Moments in Gaming

Now this is a Horrible story. I was forced to deal with being the Game Master at this moment so I assure you I am not making up the following story.

I was going through logs recently and came across this Incident.

We where playing in Deadlands. that is a Weird West Style game. Now the town had been taken over by Bandits and really really bad guys. These People wanted to sell off everyone as slaves. This was a rape and pillage kinda thing.

One of my players is playing a Bounty Hunter. this player is going to be away doing some moving. So I let him do some behind the scenes stuff. The Game before Our Bounty Hunter returns the Brothel Ma'am is shot and taken prisoner by the bad guys. The Brothel ma'am is romantically involve with aforementioned Bounty Hunter.

Now Que Preacher, a Priest Bounty Hunter who doesn't Hunt down people for Justice but for God. Our Bounty Hunter who has been away isn't very well liked by Preacher. In fact Preacher has decided he is evil and is going to take the next chance he can to express this and kill him... wait for it.

So the Party rejoined by the Bounty Hunter go into the area the enemy is hold up in. which is like a long house crossed with a stables. So they go into save the Brothel Ma'am. and they find that she has been tied up beaten and someone tried to take advantage of her situation.

The Bounty Hunter romantically involved with the women in question decides to kill the man trying to take advantage of his women. this to most of us for an old west game seems to be a very natural and exceptable course of action. In fact isn't it the kinda action we expect in this genre?

Preacher decided this was murder (Note this is the same character that killed 3 NPCs in a gun battle earlier.) and is not going to allow this PC to kill the man who beat and tried to rape his women. The Other players do not take this well In fact they take is very poorly and the entire party turns on this character.

Now the good guys and bad guys who are npcs have decided to start shooting at one another across this long house everyone is in so outside the room bullets are flying. Preacher decided being out voted by the party that he is going to walk outside. It had to be pointed out twice to the player that he was trying to exit through a wall and there where bullets flying.

I would like to say that I am rather proud of the Bounty Hunter's player who didn't shoot Preacher on the stop but rather continues the game.

I am also very happy I will never run for or play with preacher's player again.

But I would Like to hear other people's bad experiences. This Story just seemed too unbelievable not to give out.

D&D Survivor

Okay I was just struck with an idea for a D&D champaign even though I really like or play D&D. However I fully plan to get 4th edition to play/run for my nephews. Since I heard it isn't quite as paper work heavy.

The idea is to start out with a low level party of friends. maybe make the party second level if they are connected by background. You can also play the nick name game which is where you have the whole party sit down and work out nick names for other characters and where/hoe they got them.

Next you start out game with a normal dungeon crawl with a small town near the dungeon. the nicer and more normal things start out the better. Make the last boss in the dungeon hard. Something None of the players can really actually beat. You don't want to kill off everyone you want one or two of them alive.

Now the Party shouldn't be able to pay for their party being brought back from the dead however the temple is more then happy to help them out.. for a price. The temple can then start giving the group quests until their debt is payed off a really clever GM could even make the amount they owe very vague. Putting the power in the hands of the NPCs.

there is a billion places this could go. If anyone runs this tell me how it turns out. I have no idea when I would have the time.

Vampire TV show Locations

Well I was kinda Curious as to what are the most popular locations for Vampire Television shows. Here is what I have so far.

Dark Shadows - Collinsport, Maine
The Curse of Dracula - San Francisco, California
Forever Knight - Toronto, Ontario
Angel - LA, California
Blood Ties - Toronto, Ontario
Moonlight - LA, California
Kindred the Embraced - San Francisco, California
Blade: the Series - Detroit, Michigan

Toronto = 2
LA = 2
San Francisco = 2

This is what I have been able to find so far I am not including Shows where a Vampire doesn't have a main role. And I am not certain is the Location of Moonlight is accurate. If anyone know of anymore let me know or if any of these are wrong. However I must say I like that Toronto is on the top 3 list.

Yes I know Two in a Week Be Afraid

In Personal life I am back down to 111 pounds which means I wasn't able to keep up my weight. I am luckily able to eat full meals now.

To those who I haven;t talked to in person I am fighting with an inability to eat recently.

Also I am now looking into Canadian politics. I know my parents have been interested in it for ages I was born into a political family.

I would like to say at the moment Bill Casey is my favorite MP. reading about his stand against his own party for the good of the people who elected him was in fact very moving and inspirational it made me feel like this country of ours will be alright. they don't make enough men like Bill Casey.

Sick and Angry

Well I just finished watching Sicko, and I know that Micheal Moore does infact do a lot of propiganda. Everyone does so I realise he is illistarting his point, etc.

SO I am taking what I saw and heard with a grain of salt.

But WHY ON EARTH does the Concervitives want us to change to the American Model of Health care?

Well I guess the rich get richer and if poor babies die who cares? It cost people in America MONEY to have a child. It cost you nothing in Canada. I come from a fairly well off Family most of the friends of my fairly well off family are Liberal party members. Liberal Party members who care that the poor can eat and get medical attention.

I personally am very Proud to be Canadain and live in this country.

We lives in a Country Americans sneak into to get cared for because they can't afford to get treatment where they live.

The Concervitives TANKED the free day care program the Liberals where trying to give us. The Liberials where setting up to build more child care facilities and govorment subsidised health care. The Concervitices threw out this idea and are now giving families $100 for child care a month.

I called a local day care and it's $665 dallors a month for a child. so that means that your average family is still down 500 a month. at the average income being about $1 500 with cost for rent at like $700 and I am being generous.

How the hell will $100 help? why not put that towards paying daycare workers?!

We should not become America and we need a way to stop ourselves from loosing everything we work for.

We should work together to take care of Our ill and our sick and the Children. A wise man once said "How you treat me is how you treat the least of your fellows."

I agree this him and we should look to words like that and to the future to work together. I just hope that we can gain back some of what we are quickly loosing as Steven Harper wishes to join hands with his friend Mr. Bush.

Nov. 5th, 2006

Wow I don't post here alot.

So Yeah... I think I am mostly over the stuff from before like I said I was. I would dearly like to get back to playign Deadlands because that is one of the best forms of personal stress relief I have, just getting to be one player in a game.

I know that seems a bit selfish but some times I like to not have to worry about other players. Because I always worry about other playwers and do everythign I can to help them have fun.

Now this isn't to say I don't like playing with others. I do and I really love to run things for other people. Infact some times i feel like like running for groups alot better then playing in them.

then again who knows.

I am again.. going to try and post more in here. It might be good for me. So anyways.

I think I might only be so off bnecause my body is playing hell with me. Because.. yeah I am a women and yeah... so.

life is like that I guess. I think I am doing better though i seem to be up and down. the last post was wirten up last night but I couldn;t get onto my LJ to post it.

Not depresses?

It is hard to exsplain...

and I feel bad for feeling this way it is a dark pit in my stomach that makes me want to throw up. and feeling that way just makes the feeling worse.

I don't want to feel bed because I am worried for other people.. andf I am worried for a lot of people and I can;t help myself bu when I think about how bad I feel over it...

It makes me bad for feeling bad.. when ever I do anythign for myself I feel selfish.

I want to just rip pieses of me off and pass them out to those that need me until I am sitting here no longer me but something just resting in a chair.

Is there enough of me to give to make things right? Am I really makign a difference... well of course I am why would my friend lie?

I just at this moment feel like I need more parts of myself to rip off. More of me more of me more of me.

The idea of tearing ripping flesh.. something real to be upset over rather then this.. selfish pitiful behavor that I am showing.

No I am not drespessed.. well at this moment I am... at this moment I feel very Goth...

I am not feeling my mutilating myself... I just have to get these things out.. or else they will drive me mad.

Part of me is afraid that I will make those I care for feel worse by saying all this.. Part of me is saying this is a cry for pitty..shameless and selfish...

No I just want to be heard.. want to get it out. want to say the things that are inside tear them from myself sticky and wet and let they lay bleeeding on the page.

Is it so wrong to feel bad when others feel bad... it is so wrong to feel helpless and a little worthless because you can;t fix other's pain?

Am I selfish for feeling bad for not being able to care for those I care about and Love? I don't mena my husband. It's not that I don;t care about him. I do dearly. It's that I know I can care for him.

No one ever asked me to bleed for them so why do I?

and please no one who I do bleed for read this and feel bad.. please I don't know if I could take that. I hurt and that is my issue it is my problem. I shoudl jsut be dealing with it you all have enough problems.

Clive Barker

Well I found out Clive Barker is gay today, not that I have an issue with that, but I felt how I found out was very vulgure.

Of course the person who told me was one of these "look at me I am Bi." types. Which I guess all of us with alternitve sexualities to "straight" go through at one point but I personally have started to get bothered by this.

When I mentioned Clive Barker they refured to him as "My Favorite Gay Man." Personally I like Clive Barker because he is an awesome writer. Imaginitive, Creepy. And I want to write him and tell him if he doesn't finish the books of the Arts I will haunt him... unless of course he likes that then I will stop...

I don't care however if Clive Barker is gay, it seems very shallow to me to refure to someone who is a serious artist (yes I knwo Dylan will argue) by their sexualty.

If he was straight would you not read hiw work?

I think it's fucking hyportical of the gay/bi commuinity to label people like that people should aprshate others for what they do, I hope later in life I will be aprshated for my work not because I am willing to sleep with a women.

though I am still havign wet dreams about a naked johnny depp in a Clive Barker Movie. *drooools*

Another Day A New Project

Well still feeling a bit depressed but I've never let that stop me before. Me and Matt are suppose to go out today and take picutres of bus graffiti.

My computers is down for the moment so I am stuck on Linux. I have no idea weather or not I'll be back before the weekend.

Even if I am depressed I am happy that I've had alot of support. though I have no idea if the bitterness will go away.

Finished Everville, good book... Clive Barker better write book three before he dies. Unlike the author of the Amber chronicals who never finished his story and broke my heart. *sniffles*

Seeing a movie with my mum at quarter to three, today promises to be an intresting day.
