Maybe it's a sign...

[unforth]

The fact that this is come up twice in largely unrelated places makes me feel that it might be a sign of some sort. I'm not usually very good at memorizing, but I memorized the following almost 10 years ago, and I still remember it (at least I think it's mostly correct - I could go look it up, I'm about 5 feet from a copy of the play, but it feels like that would be cheating some how. I'm sure the punctuation is completely wrong, anyway. :) )


If we shadows have offended
Think but this and all is mended:
That you have but slumbered here
While these visions did appear;
And this weak idle theme
No more yielding but a dream.
Gentles, do not reprehend.
If you pardon, we will mend
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck.
Now to scape the serpents tongue.
We shall make amends 'ere long.
Else the Puck a liar call,
So goodnight unto you all.
Give me your hands if we be friends
And Robin shall restore amends.


Anyway, Hogwarts LARP today, I should be getting ready. Yesterday was all gaming all day. Woke up super early to get some school work done (see last post. :) ) and actually did accomplish a little, then I've got most of tomorrow to try desperately to catch up on the rest. The games, though, were much fun, even if I did have to sew for most of the day in order to concentrate (I don't like sewing while gaming - it's weird - when I'm not tired, I find it distracting and try not to do it, but when I'm really tired, I'm also very distractable and have trouble concentrating on anything at all, and sewing focuses my attention, making it actually easier for me to game. :) ). There was much D&Ding and characters really starting to get to know each other, and then there was much angst and teenagyness at BHSS. It was all totally spiffy. :)

I'm bringing the black/grey cloak and gauntlets to the game. Unless I forget, but I don't intend to.

how now, spirit? whither wander you?

It's a shame you hadn't started playing in the BHSS game at the start, when we actually got stuck doing that play.

I actually like having something to do with my hands while I'm (tabletop) gaming, mostly so that I don't eat all the junk food that everyone brings :) (when I'm working on a stitching project and have to get up, shedding cats and bits of thread, and wash my hands every time I have a few cheetos, it makes it an appropriate dis-incentive to eat) :)

Our GM hates it though, because it distracts HIM for some reason...

Yep, I've had GM's who absolutely hate it. One thought it was a direct attack on his abilities as a GM...grr...that's part of why I only do it when I really have to, now.
