Only one post done today, as I thought. Saturdays really aren't a good day for posting for me on account of the campaign. I am happy to report that the session went quite well today, and my cute little penguin melted the boss! This is his first major kill, and I couldn't be prouder of the little tyke. Also, this appears to be the last session before the beginning of the new campaign- the one with my half-drow wilder psion. We'll be alternating between the two from here on out, if I remember correctly what my DM said. Yes- I'm playing female again, and I'm sure my fellow players appreciate that, as one of them frequently forgets that Nut (pronounced "noot"- there's an umlaut in there, but my computer can't make that symbol unless I download a language pack, and that's too much effort just for one little penguin who wouldn't care anyway) is very much a male. His symbiote is female, but he's male. I guess that's the price I pay for being the only female player, huh? You get put in a bit of a box.
Anyway, enough about that, and back to the topic at hand! I have only two more PMs that are over 10 days old, and then I'll be caught up enough to be only a week or less out. It took me a little less than a week to get caught up on the posts I left hanging when I went on my little break.
I have no plans for today- Valentine's Day. I'm not single by any means- yes, I know, shocker- but we aren't so fragile that we require great, sweeping shows of romance. I'm never one to turn down a date, of course, but I figure, we've been together nearly eight years. Ten if you count our earlier dalliances. I'm secure in that I am cherished, and I need no grand show. The fact that he's stayed with me all these years, even when I was in a very dark place and not very loveable, speaks volumes.
That said? I'd still like to try the sushi place down the street from my apartment. My mother says it's really good, and even though her palate for quality has diminished over the years since she's lived here, in a landlocked, almost entirely homogenously Anglo area up in the Ozarks, I trust her.
Interesting how that works, isn't it? Spend over a decade rebelling, thinking you know better than your parents, even doing as I did and completely cutting myself off from them for years. But when tragedy struck, when my heart was broken, when I had nowhere else to go, it was always my mother I called first. It was her that opened her home to me again when I had to leave the state in search of a more affordable place to live in the wake of COVID. I was alone in that state anyway, with my father relocating to Arizona- now I'm back with my maternal side of the family within a 30 minute drive. I finally get to be the aunt that my nieces and nephews deserve. There's a comfort in that.
Okay, so enough meandering! Time for the tracker portion of this li'l thing.

Off-site posts are on hiatus at the moment, unless Peach invites me back to play. I still owe her one, but since she was out for a dinner party this evening, it gives me more time to put something forth for her. I'm not in any rush whatsoever.
I'm not sure if I'll manage any further posts this evening, but I'll certainly have more coming this afternoon, evening, and well into the night and early morning, as per my usual.
