( does the presence of a meme on lj mean that fb is losing its hold on folks? Cause, if so, yay! )

Yeah, you're right, i didn't cross out anything.  Never say never, you know?  Although there are a few things i wouldn't be too enthusiastic about trying, and i'm sure many things i wouldn't want to eat on a regular basis.

I have eaten whale meat, by the way.  It was pretty good - at a pretty good restaurant in Bergen, Norway.  But i do not believe i'd want to wrest with that particular ethical dilemma to have it again.  (It is legally caught in Norway, where a limited number of the sustainable minke whale are caught each year.) 

I am sad how many of these things i do not know about.  I don't know what several of my 'uneaten' foods are.

Yup, this scultpure makes me happy. So does the fact that i got to see it with my mom and sister. It was a fun afternoon, surrounded by much creative and organic beauty.

Today is easy.

I sent Madeleine (all bundled up with her purple snow suit and cherry red mittens) off with Rachel, and then i got to shovel snow!
Clearing the walk in front of my house with a hole-digging shovel (we don't own a snow shovel) took about 15 minutes, at the end of which Josh came back home explaining that the bus apparently wasn't coming (he'd been waiting for an hour or more) so i got a surprise ride to work as well.

I don't get to shovel snow very often. It was a treat.

I Am A: Lawful Good Human Wizard (4th Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-12

Dexterity-10

Constitution-14

Intelligence-13

Wisdom-14

Charisma-12


Alignment:
Lawful Good A lawful good character acts as a good person is expected or required to act. He combines a commitment to oppose evil with the discipline to fight relentlessly. He tells the truth, keeps his word, helps those in need, and speaks out against injustice. A lawful good character hates to see the guilty go unpunished. Lawful good is the best alignment you can be because it combines honor and compassion. However, lawful good can be a dangerous alignment because it restricts freedom and criminalizes self-interest.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Class:
Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.
