The first touch of frost covers the ground. It's winter. Waking up in the dark. Driving to work under the volcanic sun. Our sunrise, always colourful, is tinted blood-red from the volcanic gasses. Destruction brings a special kind of beauty ( Read more... )

Just a reminder - I'm mostly journalling from bara.is these days. I'm in the slow process of integrating everything into it, collecting my various projects, such as the Saga Project and so on. Eventually it will be a place where I can talk about everything - be it MMA, the martial arts I'm practicing, World of Warcraft, Star Craft 2 or whatever ( Read more... )

I've got a ton of ideas for , but suddenly all thoughts on how to implement them have turned to mush in my head.

I think I'm doing too much at once - but I've already cut down on WoW (don't play at all these days, signed off from raiding) and while GoG.com is shamelessly stealing my time, I'm mostly just doing things that need doing ( Read more... )

Finally updating bara.is again...
It's being pieced together, bit by bit, page by page.

It will eventually hold all my photos, writings, projects, blogs and other random stuff that I do. For great funz.

Anybody trying out Rift?
I've been thinking of writing some of my initial impressions of Rift as I'm in the beta, but not entirely convinced I will buy it when it comes out. We'll see. Didn't want to post it here as I doubt anyone's really interested..!

Weekend will be full of Rift betatesting and UFC 126! Silva has been getting back on my to-watch ( Read more... )

Thanks to everyone for their support <3

It's been a rough week, but we have some of our stuff back and our car is in repairs. Hopefully police will find the intruders eventually.

I've got a new phone so people can call me again. Poke me if you don't have the new number (starts with 860)

Burglars broke into our house while we were sleeping. Stole everything they could carry then drove away in our car. The financial damage to us is heavy. The photos, writing, and countless hours of work are irreplaceable. We only hope we get it back.

I'm sick of January.

Still trying to ditch the cold I've been carrying for over two weeks now. It's a nuisance. I was unable to work and raid for a week, it hit right before my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class started and it's caused a major delay recording for the Saga Project. As there already seems to be some interest for the free Icelandic saga ( Read more... )

Christmas is over and I'm back at work.

It was short but lovely. I am wearing a particularly comfortable Nikita sweater (a gift from my husband), relaxed and warm, enjoying the slow pace of the office today. So few are at work.

My voice isn't the best. I sound wispy and half asleep if I relax it, and if I use a stronger voice it breaks. A warm cup ( Read more... )
