Turkey Goodness

velvetpageWell, Thanksgiving is over yet again.
We have eaten four big dinners in as many days. Two were turkey. One was ham and scalloped potatoes (thanks,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sassy_fae!) One was chicken kiev out of the freezer section of the supermarket. All involved pie, in most cases, pumpkin. All were good, but the company made them that much better.
On Friday, I very carefully didn't say what I thought about certain issues, so as not to start world war three at my dad's house. On Saturday, I discussed the exact same issues and said what I believed. It felt much better. On Sunday the conversation was light and fun, for the most part, and tonight it centered around family traditions such as vying for the last little bit of my mother's stuffing, and the difference between a cornet and a trumpet. All in all, a good weekend.
Many of you will have already seen (or soon will see) the end of the Ironclaw campaign. I've spent several hours this weekend prepping Annarisse for a possible future campaign. I don't quite have access to the next set of sacerdotal spells, but I've bought the indulgence for them and need only some more field experience to gain access. I do have access to journeyman-level White Magic spells now - I only needed to spend one more point on a spell to get that. I'll enjoy the game of Trinity we'll start next week, for as long as it lasts. But at some point in the next year or so, I'd like to go back to Annarisse and have some more seafaring adventures. Now that I've started fleshing her out a bit, she's that much more interesting. And I think the interplay between Annarisse and Captain Sal - no, wait a sec, Captain Sir Salvatore - will get that much more fun, now that Annarisse has reduced some of her hang-ups and has saved Salvatore's life quite handily.
Now it's time to sleep off some turkey. Hopefully I'll be with it enough tomorrow not to snap at the kids.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Date: 2004-10-11 08:05 pm (UTC)We'll be playing (at least initially) in a biotech facility dubbed Puerto San Florian, essentially a small city. It's floating off the southern tip of Cuba helping in the recovery efforts there. The place is run by the Norça, and other interests include Orgotek and the Aesculapians (one of their two main headquarters is at Port-au-Prince).
Characters should have some sort of Trinity allegiance. Either you work directly for them, or you're an associate on loan from one of the orders. Hell, if you want, you can play a neutral without any psi powers. (:
