Oooh, look, life

Not dead. Mostly. Work is eating up a lot of time, plus gaming, and gearing up for the LARP season again. Why does it always come around again so fast? This year has involved some very heated discussions, and some things that may go down like a sack of bricks. But hey. It's for the good of the club.
In other news Northampton's old age pensioners get in on the vigilante action. Little old lady (with a mean handbag swing) is currently being hailed as my town's hero after she beat up some jewelery store robbers. I'm fairly sure that store has been robbed more in the last year than really makes it worth existing. It always seems to have a window boarded up when I go past it.
Hmm, what else is happening? I'm trying to do this whole 'being a grown up' thing, with varying levels of success. I'm remembering to eat meals, and I'm mostly keeping on top of the washing up. But that's about it. The house looks like a tornado has gone through it, and most of my clean laundry is still sitting on one of the living room chairs because I keep forgetting to take it upstairs. And I have people coming over in a couple of weeks, and not much time to get it sorted by.
My Unknown Armies game is going well, apart from the player who seemed to ignore the whole "you will have encountered the occult at some point prior to the game start" and is acting like this is all completely new to her. It's irksome as it's making her really hard to integrate into the plot (she's also the only non-magical member of the party, the rest of them being Adepts or Avatars). Plot is finally starting to unwind, and they're putting things together, and next week, they're going to Newcastle. Either to find stuff out or get eaten. It depends.
Now, to get on with work, or to try and make some attempt at cleaning. And shifting furniture around...
... or to make tea.
