Planning: This weekend, getting schoolwork done and my life in order.

Wearing: Dickies and a button down.

Writing: I have been re-writing Sorcerer 2289

The group is an all-Invictus mixed Clan bunch of upstarts looking to carve out some Influence/Status in Chicago.

I'm using the WoD: Chicago book with a few twists on the provided NPCs and we're exploring some of the setting's politics, history and starting tonight some of the more monstrous elements of "kindred society" so, should get interesting.

Invictus?

Invictus?

What kind of monstrous elements?

Sounds keen.

Reading: Just finished A Wizard of Earthsea and (finally) Desolation Road. Not sure what's next - maybe 'Paradise Lost' or 'Jane Eyre'.

Planning:

Ghost/Echo via Skype tonight. Gothic/Echo via bbs during the week. Crafty projects with my daugher this weekend. Maybe a movie date with the wife if schedule permits.

I want to do handmade gifts this Christmas. This means I need to start working on them now. Time to work up a list.

Thinking about Halloween a lot today too - I want to give out non-candy stuff (glowsticks, spider-rings, erasers) and I want to have the kids dance, sing, or tell a joke before they get the goodies (which is not the custom here, but is in some places). I should probably ready myself for the inevitable tp-ing of my home. :P

Wearing: Business casual, as usual.

Creating: Made a little Sailor's Valentine and some other crafty stuff last week, trying to get back into doing full page drawings in my Moleskine this week.
