The cooking of food in this realm is a source of great confusion for me, and undoubtedly many of my hidden wizard brethren. I was extremely careful when I arrived here, watching the mortals and their ways, but I could never understand what was occurring when they placed the food into those black boxes. Obviously …
And once again, my quick-thinking saves the day. Alright, the truth: my quick-thinking has saved the day…for the first time. Maybe the last, but I’ve heard lightning CAN strike twice in the same place under very specific circumstances, so I’m holding out hope. The party wasn’t my idea, because I’m horrible at organizing events. But …
I just got invited to join a month-long health kick to be administered over social media. I get the point – group solidarity and all that – but I can’t help but think that accountability would be higher if it was an in-person thing. That’s neither here nor there, though. It’s just got me thinking …
If you ask me, kids should be introduced to grown up concepts sooner. If they react poorly, then they’re weak and they need time to harden up before they face the big bad world. But I showed my son a horror movie when he was five, and he had a great time. I KNOW he …
Kinda thought I’d get a bit more respect from my friendship group now that I own a home. But as it turns out, I’ve just taken a step on the ladder. The ladder that is life. The life ladder. So I’ve been financially responsible, never gone on holiday, never asked for handouts, and finally! I …
No, that’s fine. That’s FINE, everyone. I’ll just sort it all out. I was the one who sent out the invitations to these important people coming to the Expo and I’m ALSO the one organising their accommodation, so it makes sense that I’d be the one who has to sort out their cars. No, it’s …
As much as I love watching Jap-anime, I do manage to find time for Japanese RPGs every now and then. They’re still from Japan, they use many of the same styles, and I do love how they so often let you pick your own dialogue options. Many times I’ve been yelling at the screen of …
Josephine, the little kid next door, has just been showing me photos of her latest weekend with her grandparents, courtesy of grandma’s phone (grandma was inside, presumably have a well-deserved sit down). A lot of the photos showed Josephine looking stoked amidst a colourful array of large-scale play equipment. “Where’s that?” I asked her. “It’s …
Now that we know that we’ll have trees on the moon- eventually, anyway- we need to look into such things as gardening and house maintenance. After all, you can’t simply set up a new society, and expect it to be the greatest the world has ever known, if you don’t plan for the little things. …
The leaflet that came through the door said ‘design your own dream home’, but I don’t think they’ve ever met me. Let’s just say that I have a certain idea of what I want my dream home to look like, and it definitely does not exist. Basically, it would have to be a sort of …
