May. 24th, 2024

As usual, up early due to smol kitty. This time she didn't stand on me, she ran through the basement, playing with her toys and yelling at top volume. Which had the extra impetus of getting up, so as to not wake Jess. She settled down the moment I produced food, and I considered going back to bed, but alas, I am awake now. She's such a little pain in the ass. I love her so much.

Yesterday was a little slower at work, and I'm hoping today will be even more so. Of course, despite the relative slowness, I still ended up at 54 calls. Not quite sure how that happened.

Seeing as it was Thursday, that meant it was time for Jess to go get their tattoo done! The picture is it with Sani Derm plastic over it to protect the ink for the first 24 hours, so ignore the lines side to side, but is this not gorgeous?



A very fitting tattoo to commemorate Tali from the Strahd campaign.

I actually had decided that I wanted to get a 20 sided die on my body, but last night it occurred to me that the color I chose is rather wintry. And it could totally represent Frostmaiden. After thinking about it, I decided that I should start a long-term project, and get tattoos for all my campaigns. First up, the Frostmaiden dice. I'm figuring a these dice:



With a six point snowflake behind it to represent the original big bad of the campaign, Auril, goddess of Winter.



As Jess pointed out, there's a lot of memorable moments from a 3+ year campaign, and I did consider putting a snail in a wizard's hat for the time our bard turned the evil wizard into a snail to send him to prison. The snail (back in wizard form) later became the big bad of the second arc.

I was brainstorming on how to commemorate the other campaigns, and I said that the second tattoo would have to be for my longest running campaign, Monster of the Week. That's going to be on the other leg, and would feature a pair of 6 sided dice, either with a lil devil tail wrapped around them, or with clawed hands trying to push them aside to burst out from between them. Leaning towards that one.

I had trouble getting to sleep last night, trying to decide what to get for my various campaigns. I wish I was any kind of artist, because I could see some of them so clearly.

Tomorrow, it turned out that [personal profile] coyotegestalt and [personal profile] weyrlady are going to be up our way for a Sci Fi convention, so we get to have lunch with friends!! I am very excited about this! Birthday lunch, plus friends = awesome.

Oh well, Dad is up early, so it's time to get myself together. Everyone have an amazing Friday! The weekend is right there! Just have to get through one more day.
