What a weekend

I had a great weekend. I had been looking forward to a larp workshop, but a week ago the workshop was cancelled, due to too few participants. However, this didn't matter too much, I had time to do some chores at home instead. It was good to finally get some of these things done, after postponing them too many times.

Saturday night a very good friend of mine had a Birthday party. As usual, it was great. We had some serious discussions and many not so serious ones. And the second most delicious chocolate cake I've ever tasted. And a very unexpected suggestion that I had to consider seriously. And we briefly discussed our upcoming Hilastherion photo shoot next weekend. And we also babbled a bit about some Renaissance music concerts, if I remember correctly, I think they will take place in April 2013.

Yesterday was rather fun. Just before noon I sat with my laptop, waiting to register for next year's upcoming anniversary LARP*. In 2 minutes and 28 seconds after they opened the registration form, 15 people had already registered! And I got the character I wanted. Or should I say, I got my first choice. We were told to choose three characters. The character we wanted to play, one backup if we didn't get that part, and a third one if the second character was also taken. All this since it might happen that several players want to play the same character. But now, I'm SO ready to rock as this character.

Characters

Last weekend was all about different characters. I took part in a Vampire setting tabletop role-playing game with elements of live action role-playing (Larp). Everything started out really well, my character made a lot of new contacts and even established a position in the town he was visiting. But it seems that everything ended in mayhem. I had to leave before everything ended, but I read that other characters were killed.

And at home, I have an alter ego that I call Agnieszka. She is from Poland and takes care of our household. My wife has an alter ego called Viljar. He is from Estonia and works as a gardener and property caretaker. And last weekend we had two new additions to our staff. Our two sons have alter egos as well now. Pedro and Miguel, they are from Mexico and they basically help Viljar with the property.
