It's a long way down

cyranoStill feeling run down tired and sore. Told the boss I felt 'better' and later had to clarify that "I said better, not good."
However, I just got word from the BayCon Firefly folks. They not only took my first request for a character, they also took some of my plot/character suggestions.
(The sign up form said "Which of these roles are you most interested in? Also, assign them four personality traits or goals. If we like them we may use them" Windrose can attest that I took that very seriously, crafting items that would show them what an expert storysmither I could be and what an asset to the game I would prove. Because that's the kind of neurotic paranoia combined with hubris *I* have.)
I'm not sure if I'm from the core or the rim, so I haven't yet settled on my accent. (:
I'm hoping to find somebody running tabletop games at BayCon that I can get in on.
And I just dropped mail into the post to close down yet another credit card, a month earlier than expected.
Yesterday I had a lovely and productive conversation with Tamago about airship pirates and now I just need to try and visit a few Army/Navy surplus stores to try and find as much pre-fab costume makings as I can.
Last night there was more talk about me running RPGs, and I have even more to juggle now.
I already have tomorrow's question, and given the success of last week's 'double size issue' I'm tempted to go online early with this one.
Saturday is already packed full of socializing. I will spend the day surrounded by attractive women.

Re: So on the Baycon note
Date: 2008-05-12 09:59 am (UTC)You'll have questions like planet of origin once you get your packet at Con. The guy playing Evan Tran is a great role-player and you'll be connected to some other great folks, too.
Oh, and we will be taking photos of players and posting them in the room with character names to help with the finding and/or recognizing of other characters.
See you in couple weeks!

Re: So on the Baycon note
Date: 2008-05-12 03:41 pm (UTC)I am, in fact, in the midst of a list of questions that I'll be looking for in my packet, and am trying to build a backstory flexible enough to be dismantled for parts when I get the packet. (:
(My first thought was "Where is he from? If they don't tell me what world he's from.... then he's from one of the Core planets but he pretends he's from the rim because customers find that rustic charm attractive. Yeah! That'll work!)
