ok, I got nudged...

[livejournal.com profile] erik_j_meyer just nudged me because I've not posted in a while.

So- what I'm up to:

I recently planted a bunch of herbs/vegetables. There's a small ceramic strawberry container of marjoram, thyme, sweet basil, cilantro, chives, and curly parsley sitting in my kitchen. I set it up on this past Friday and already have some of the seeds sprouting. I also got some peat pots and started the following this past Sunday- Basil (Fino Verde, Lemon, Spicy Globe, Sweet Italian, Thai), Chamomile, Chives, (Garlic, Regular), Cilantro, Dill (Fernleaf, Mammoth), Lavender, Lemon Balm, Mint (Common), Onions (White Lisbon- aka Scallions), Oregano, Parsley, Rosemary (French), and Sage. Those are sitting outside on a bench in plastic trays.

I've got some steampunk jewelry ideas, and found a source for parts. Granted, it's an online source so I'm starting to contact the local watch and clock repair shops, as well as thrift/consignment stores for cheaper (possibly free?)local sources. I also ended up finding a pair of old safety goggles/automotive glasses when helping to clear out my aunt's shed a week or two ago. So I'm starting to develop a steampunk outfit. Hopefully it'll be ready for Halloween.

Job search = slow, painful, and depressing.

Roleplaying games- going strong. I got a chance to hang out on Sunday with people (including [livejournal.com profile] datascavenger and [Bad username or site: sunatrya, @ livejournal.com]) and play Kobolds Ate My Baby!. I'm preparing for the D&D 4th Edition release (a gift certificate from [Unknown site tag]'s father and his girlfriend paid for the pre-order of the set) which is tomorrow.

I've got the leaked books, and I'll be trying to pick up the real books today. (Dunno if George is selling them today or not.)

I didn't get the leaked books, and Maria didn't get her shipment yesterday (Thursday) like expected.

Ok, I confused myself. You're right, I meant Wednesday.

What are you up to on Saturday? Going to go somewhere for Worldwide Gameday?

I'll be running stuff over at Flights of Fantasy. There's 3.5 stuff in the morning (at 10) and 4e in the afternoon (starting at 2ish).

Might be doing a DnD4th 1 shot w/ friends. Don't want to deal with game day shenanigans..too many nerds for one spot.
