2007

A recap of 2007 through pictures. :D

A trip down to Portland for a Super Bowl party. The first quarter was amazing. the next three... well hence the picture above.

St. Patty's Day!

Easter!
Oh, wait...

Yes. We made an Easter Bunny cake. You can not see it in this shot but we added raisinettes to make it look like it was shitting. :)

Sebastian had a little bit of a scare and had to spend a weekend at the animal hospital.

A weekend in SF for some baseball, beer and hot dogs in the sun, nights out with friends, and this...

What do you expect from Dodger fans...

Ren Faire.
Note to self: After polishing off 3 bottles of mead DO NOT volunteer yourself to the knife juggler. :-o

Camping in Mammoth.
These guys were so cute. :-)

Moving.
Not really that special except I found out I needed to be out of my place the day I was suppose to be flying to Germany in one month. Errrrrr.

Germany! Where everything is gorgeous...

...the beer comes in jumbo sizes (did you know it is possible to consume a gallon and half of beer in one day, and survive?)...

...and it is served with breakfast!
I am not joking. I ordered breakfast and they just brought it out with beer. :D

Halloween!
Uh, that isn't my costume. Obviously. But I sure did appreciate the view. :)

I went to my high school 10 year reunion. Oddly enough I had a blast.

Raf's house warming party in Portland.
I think he actually finished that whole bottle of champagne...

Christmas back home in San Francisco.

Goodbye 2007! :D

What D&D character am I?

I Am A: Neutral Good Human Bard/Sorcerer (2nd/2nd Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-10

Dexterity-11

Constitution-13

Intelligence-14

Wisdom-15

Charisma-13


Alignment:
Neutral Good A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment because because it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Primary Class:
Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. A high Charisma score allows a bard to cast high-level spells.


Secondary Class:
Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast.

Formal Announcement

I quit my job, I am going back to school, and I am moving to Portland.

Um, no joke.

I got bored. I felt like I was doing the same thing every day and living for the weekends. For you who know me, you know I can not really do change in a small way. For everyone else, well... they think I flipped my lid. It may be a bit of both.


So lately I have been on the emotional roller coaster. One minute I am dragging myself to work counting the days till I am out. The next I am overwhelmed with "this" and "that" that needs to be done. The very next minute I am hit with a wave of fear and shock to the point that I either just stare at a wall or just begin to shake. Next I am so excited I start grinning and giggling like I am off to my first prom.


I hate what I fear, and I fear the unknown and being alone. So why not venture off and try both at the same time?
He he, ah crap, here goes that roller coaster again...
