For anyone interested there are currently a whole 19 jobs going at DEFRA at Admin Officer level (the one I'm at) doing things with farming surveys in York.

Details can be found here:

http://www.defra.gov.uk/corporate/jobs/vacancies/index.htm

It's worth applying for if you need a job.

I would like to point out to all on my f-list that my current non-standard facial hair is a result of a charity project at work, not a lifestyle change. Me and Bunny are still together.

I've borrowed the Rogue Trader book (new 40k RPG) and am now very enthusiastic about dusting off my GMing hat and running a game.

It's good to get back in the saddle. Swashbuckling space pirates mixed with Grim'n'Dark(TM) 40k fun can't possibly go wrong.

Saw the below trailer on Youtube. It looks like it might be serious, then the music starts. I'd love to see it.

The below link is to a fun little internet game. I'm not sure why I love it, probably the jaunty music and cute elephant.

And for once this ISN'T a suggestion for a Shatleg event. Although it depends on how many drugs the PCS have taken I suppose...

So the BSG boardgame is really good. However it is important to read the rules properly before dealing cards, otherwise EVERYONE turns out to be a Cylon. On the plus side, it meant we all won.

I've just been set up with a phone line and now I need to look at who I'm going to sign up with for the Internet.

Any suggestions? Remember that I'm not going to be torrenting or downloading massive amounts of video.

Back from the event and now with internet access at work.

Very fun event, run very smoothly from start to finish. Never had to wonder about what I was supposed to be doing. It was also nice that we had so many monsters so the players could spend all of their time IC (although I would have been happy to monster).

I would also like to point out Eli's plan of "when dragon turns up I'm going to hit him with my sword until he dies" worked slightly better than I would have expected.

And after the least successful attempt to get myself killed ever I will now be playing a chirpy young alchemist.

Good job reffs, good job monsters and good job to everyone else involved.

I'm sorry to report that Smokey died last night.

This makes me sad.

So I ordered a new computer from the Internet.

Long story short, does anyone fancy giving me a lift up to Clifton Moor this evening before 20:00 to pick it up? Apparently they knocked and nobody was in, then posted a card through my door. This is a lie.

Any and all offers greatly appreciated.

I have a nasty infection in one of my teeth so I've been given some strong antibiotics by the dentist. These have the interesting side-effect that if I consume any alcohol (even the booze in a sherry trifle) I will be violently sick.

The dentist also gave me some very strong mouthwash which is 7% alcohol.

This sounds like a recipe for fun!

Smokey continues to womble shakily through life. I thought he had died last night so I opened his cage up and started to pull him out, at which point he woke up and grumped at me.

Because I had a slow lunch break I decided to take the Asperger's test:

Your Aspie score: 58 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 151 of 200
You are very likely neurotypical

I have no idea what that means but the graph was pretty.

In other news I've been ill for the last two weeks and now seem to have some kind of wisdom tooth emerging from my jaw. So I'm currently hopped up on painkillers and Haribo.

Also, Smokey the hamster appears to be on his last legs and is not looking too well. I'll keep everyone updated.

I'm writing a D&D one off and while looking through the book I realised just how damned Communist the Warlord class is.

I mean, look at how many times the word "Comrade" is used. Very suspicious.

On the same subject, would anyone out there with the skills of an artist be willing to do some character illustrations for me?

The hamster escaped yesterday when I was at LARP. After frantically searching for about half an hour I decided to snooze and let his hamstery snufflings wake me up.

Which they did three hours later. The insulting thing is, when I grabbed him and put him back in his cage he didn't even TRY to avoid me or look surprised. He just grinned, smugly.

I read in the paper today:

"OJ Simpson was considered for the part of the Terminator in the film 'The Terminator' but the director didn't think he was convincing enough as a killer".

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I got the key for my new house today. It's very nice and I can start moving in now.

Unfortunately I spent most of the day throwing up and crapping my guts out due to some random stomach bug thing.

Bored...someone give me a challenging meme to fill out.

So there is justice in the world.

After banging on to several people about how easy it is to get leave from my work, I've just had my leave for Maelstrom turned down.

Fair is fair.

*Clarification*

I'm still going, it just means I'll be there late Friday

I have just lost hardcore points. It turns out that the muscle in my shoulder isn't torn, I just have a painful abduction (or abdication or something) which means it is inflamed.

If it was torn my arm would be all weak and limp.

Feel free to add sarcastic comments now.

And I now have somewhere to live.

Hurrah. I shall be living on my own like some kind of anti-social hermit.

Any bets on how long it'll take for me to totally snap and start collecting torsos?
