hmmm... well, have a lot of fun with the medieval reenactment group known as the SCA. through that, i'm learning both archery and fencing, and i've met a lot of cool people. somehow, i usually end up hang out with a bunch of pirates. don't know how that happens. the black corsairs are pretty cool.
i read a lot. just finished the newest and last harry potter. very good book. love the twist she put in at the end. got way too many faves to really list them here, but a few are j.k. rowling (obviously), kristin britain, laurell k. hamilton, anne mccaffery, mercedes lackey, and ann bishop.
i love writing. i've actually got a few books i'm working on. got the first book of what's going to be a trilogy finished and i'm working on the second one, and i've got a few more started as well. don't know if these will go any further than just the one book yet or not. we'll have to see. i'm just trying to get some people to read and proofread for me.
been gaming a bit. got into it a little while at ball state university, but the two that usually dm'ed sucked massive balls. they usually got into p****** contests over who was the bigger god of gaming. -rolls eyes- led to some pretty lame-o games. with the ones i game with now, it's actually a lot of fun. i'm actually starting to figure out dnd now. it helps that the people i game with now actually know what the hell they're doing. for two of them, their idea of fun at cons is to do their best to completely destroy games. once, they did it as cult of cthulu embraced by malkavians. that was an interesting one. one of the mage cabals my husband was running with at a con completely wiped out a sabbat pack. lets just say it's not a good idea to mess with a mage, let alone a group of them. or malkavians. especially those that believe in cthulu! other than dnd, play a little vampire, and play a little hunter. mostly been playing dnd's bubble world. it's a lot of fun. need to redo my character though.
i also find the whole vampire culture fascinating. it's interesting comparing the different types people have come up with. although, did you know that scientists believe that belief in vampires and other supernatural bloodsuckers like that came from the disease porphyria? it's rather fascinating. did a few essays on it at bsu. i'm looking forward to being able to get some baby fang implants, but for other reasons than the whole vampire thing. they're cool and all, but i'm just not a vampire. i'm more cat and dragon than vampire.

mostly listen to metal, rock, celtic, stuff like that. occassionally listen to a little classic rock, mostly stuff from the 70's and 80's. really can't stand country, r&b, hip-hop, and rap. there's only one or two artists in those genres that are really worth listening to. the rest just encourage ignorance with all the shit they spout. especially rap and hip-hop. the girls ain't too bad for the most part, but the guys, -rolls eyes-.....
