dungeons and dragons

So, I play D&D.  Go ahead and laugh...alright, now that you've got it out of your system, I'll go on.  

There's a creeper in my group.  I'm the only girl, so all of them kind of mildly flirt with me as a rule, but this one guy kind of took it too far. It might not have been too far if I hadn't known him for FIVE MINUTES...okay, no, even then it would have come off as slightly creepy.  

Basically, my group had met once, with four people.  The next time we met two new people had joined.  Our party was traveling through the woods, so our cleric 'found' the mage and the bard wandering out int he woods one night when he was on watch. The guy with the mage came back to camp with the cleric and promptly had his character attempt to crawl inside my character's sleeping bag.  

Idk...I mean, it's not like if one character hits on another it automatically means the person behind that character has a thing for the person behind the other character, but this guy just gives off a vibe.  He made a few other weird remarks that time, and the next time, and my boyfriend agreed with me that he set off both of our creeper alarms.  

The funny bit is that our DM, Jack, who is awesome, snarks at the creeper, Patrick, at every turn.  Tonight Jack made some remark, and Patrick pauses and is like, "Kiss my ass."  

I'm like, "Wow, I like that it took you five seconds to come up with that."  

Patrick says, "I was just thinking how far I wanted to take this."  

I respond flippantly, "Take it all the way. That's my philosophy."  I am an idiot. I forgot who I was talking to.  

He turns to Jack and is like, "Okay. Jack, eat out my ass." 

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THAT WAS THE LOGICAL NEXT STEP.

I almost died.

Such. A. Creeper.

digital

So my family's TV is like 20 years old, analog obviously. My parents bought a converter box for the Grand Digital Switch, the ads of which have been polluting the television for months, which will CONTINUE since Congress approved a delay until June of forced digital conversation. Thanks guys. Anyway, it makes the picture sharper, but also does a weird thing with the dimensions of the picture...the fam watched Chuck like they do every Monday (I had my headphones on my head and plugged into my laptop) and it was sort of...squished. Other shows had a black bar on the left and ride sides of the screen. I am not pleased. Naturally the only channel that doesn't do either of these things is the 'movie channel' (which we have never gotten before...thanks converter box, i guess) which is not really that awesome since said channel plays old Burt Reynolds movies. Nothing current, at least that I saw tonight. Lame. (Yes, I am a shallow newmovie fag.)

Anyway, the point of all this is that my dad moved the old rabbit ears (my family kicks it old school) to a new spot on top of the TV, since the feng shui got all disrupted with the introduction of the converter box. I was staying up late like I always do, only to hear a slight scraping noise. I looked up just in time to watch the rabbit ears dive off the TV. Now they are hanging pathetically, antenna down, by the cord. Rabbit ear suicide at being rendered obsolete via converter box. I APPROVE.

Also at around 2 am I went upstairs for something. I passed the front door on the way up and noticed it was unlocked. Lovely.

Also also my glasses are AWOL. This is not good because I really shouldn't be driving without them, but how else shall I get to class tomorrow?! CRISIS.

to someone

I had a dream about you last night. You appeared by surprise, and we hugged. I told you I'd missed you, and then you said you had missed me too...then laughed and said wait, no I didn't, and then we laughed about the hostility we used to have for each other, now past. (The fact that this little episode was in the midst of a larger dream involving a war between some gnome tribes just makes it even better).

I forgot about it when I woke up, then remembered when another someone mentioned your name. I couldn't decide whether I was happy or sad to have such a dream to remember...

It's bittersweet, because I know dreams are the only place I'll ever get to talk to you again.
