I did something new this weekend. Instead of playing a game where as a player, I ran a game as the Game Master. I used an Adventure League module as a base, and kind of stuck to it for the first half. Then gave up on that and started making things up as I wentContinue reading “Something new”

Cats.
I have never liked cats. Even before the Attack. They just weren’t my favorite. I’ve been a dog person since I was a baby. All of my friends know this. My boyfriend knows this – he still wants a cat if we make it to living together. That I’m not sure about right now. Lately,Continue reading “Cats.”
Star Treking Across the Universe
Yesterday marks the start of the mission to actually do something I never truly have. I’m going to sit down and watch some Star Trek. I’m not starting at the Original series, which I definitely will watch. I’m starting at The Next Generation then moving on to Deep Space Nine. I’ve wanted to watch the seriesContinue reading “Star Treking Across the Universe”
Going on to 2018, with a brief look back on 2017
When this uploads, it’ll be January 1st. I spent a good portion of time examining the different tools and aspects of WordPress. Something I should have done years ago but never actually bothered because I am actually the worst. This past year has been a rollercoaster. I did so much. I gained so much. AndContinue reading “Going on to 2018, with a brief look back on 2017”
Halloween Horror Nights 2017
Addendum: I remember posting this. I remember finishing it and posting it. However – clearly my brain is a lying liar who lies because it’s December 29th, and here this post is unposted. I blame the foxen. *** The time for the annual trip to Universal City Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights is now upon us.Continue reading “Halloween Horror Nights 2017”
Memories and Loss
My grandmother, Carol Ann Duefrene, passed away on December 2, 2017, at 12:40 in the morning. I am not okay. I’m pretty good at pretending to be okay, but I can’t with this. I am going through the motions that you are supposed to do for living life and moving on. I have continued toContinue reading “Memories and Loss”
A Do/Do Not list of going to Confession
My grandmother, Laller, passed away on December 2. It’s been hard. There’s a bigger entry in the works of me processing, and my favorite story with her in her prime. But this is a thing I am dealing with. Poorly. One of her requests was a full Mass service. I grew up Catholic. I’ve sinceContinue reading “A Do/Do Not list of going to Confession”
Not Enough
I’m not Mexican enough. I don’t speak Spanish. I don’t eat spicy foods because I can’t tolerate spice that well. My skin is too pale. I have very little accent to my voice. I don’t dance. I don’t sing. I have no rhythm. I have too much love for Pumpkin Spice. And Trader Joe’s BaasContinue reading “Not Enough”
I’ve been in my new home for a little over a week. I’m mostly moved in – just the odd bits and ends left to gather and bring over from the old place. I’m simultaneously happier and stressed out like I haven’t been. I needed this move. For so many reasons, I needed this move. TheContinue reading
Operation Secret Project
It’s a go. It’s happening. And since a lot of people know about it (read, everyone in my personal life knows). It doesn’t need to be a *secret* project. I’m moving out of my parent’s home next Thursday. I’m going to be living with a roommate, but on my own for truthfully the first timeContinue reading “Operation Secret Project”
