The Edge of the Internet

*Snicker*

Deep down in dismal drudgery dwell denizens of damnation’s department for derogatory lives and destiny’s disinherited delineations. A grandiose title for an over heated windowless, unadorned ferroconcrete office barely measuring a miserable six feet square. Crammed into this cast off flotsam of bureaucracy stood an elegant art deco desk in silver and glass, behind it sat out hapless clear, slightly drooling little drips of strawberry flavored saliva, don’t ask how the author knows its strawberry.
Bok Meanswell, our mid low level drone was contemplating a half eaten herb and garlic bagel he’d found in a little coffee shop named contemplation. Time was passing slowly for Bok, which is understandable when you clock’s dial goes to seventy-four. With a sigh he turned an to an ever filling wire cage big to retrieve a brass, screw capped tube. Two more tubes shot out of a rattling pneumatic pipe into the bin.

“Figures”

By the florescent light of a cracked green glass bankers lamp he sat hunched over his table. The contents of the tube were tossed onto the table, typically landing in the puddle of drool he’s left.

“Well let’s see what sort of report we have today.”

Hello again everyone,

I said I would write more and get back into the swing of posting here as much as I can. I still do not have internet at home, so what little I write is being done at the computers set up in Travis’ apartment, or as like to call it Gamer Ghetto central. It’s not going to be very interesting I’m sure. Still at least I’m trying.

This is going to be one of those lame posts where I talk about how I’ve been doing of late.

I’ve finished moving into the new place and am rather happy with it. Live in New Westminster is much better then Surrey. Not only do I no longer have the stigma of living south of the river, but I’m closer to friends now. It still strikes me as odd to be able to drop by the ghetto to all hours and know that getting home is not a worry.

I have a bigger room now, all my stuff is in one place, which for me is a first in three years. I find myself looking over all sorts of old books saying to myself. “When the hell did I buy this?” either way it works for me.

As some of you know I went to Dragon Con at the beginning of the month. It was grand, I had so much fun, I think more then most of the others that went with me. There are pictures on fliker out there, but I don’t have the address for them on hand. I’ll try and post latter for those of you who don’t live near me and want to see. Alas I have no thrilling stories to share from this Dragon Con, it was fun as I said, but not as… umm… note worthy as last years. I’ll try and be more descriptive if called upon to do so.

I’m happy if that’s important for anyone to know. I’ve dealt with all the stress I mentioned in previous posts. My taxes are now all up to date and I will be receiving just shy of three thousand dollars from the government over the next few months as my forms are processed. I will also be getting GST cheques again, which will be weird for me. I’ve not seen one for like eight years. Yes it was that long ago I stopped filing me taxes. I’m not ashamed of the fact.

Let’s see what else. I opened a comic book box at Imperial Hobbies. It will have been five years since I had one of those. I missed having a steady input of comic in my life. Oh sure I would walk down to the local store about every so often and pick up the occasional title but now I’m really back into the hobby. I’m rather excited by the prospect, which tells you how dull my life can be.

Gaming wise… well I’ve not Cammed in a while. I find the whole idea of going to a game here in Vancouver to be rather… repulsive. I’m not going to go into why on a public forum though. My sit down gaming is okay. I’m still in Jason’s Star Wars game, Jeff’s DnD game, and recently joined Derek’s Angel-verse game. I’m a tech mage who fights vampires with a paint ball gun in that game. It all shows promise. Come January first I’m going to run a Gnostic LARP game here in Vancouver. I miss running a LARP game and figured it would do me best. I’ll post an entry solely on that topic another day. Its something I would have to do in paper/pen to compose right. Beyond that there is nothing else to report.

So… how’s everyone else doing?
