(no subject)

I probably owe you all a LJ entry, although I'm still stuck at skip=100 right now. In case I hadn't told you, I'm
off to freeze my butt off on a campsite near Manchester this weekend, in the name of Live Action Role-Play. This is all phamster's fault. Should be fun,
even if my period decided to be a week late, in the spirit of 'turning up at precisely the wrong moment'. Technically
I should have expected it, with all the random swapping around it's done in the past to safeguard me from going anywhere near a swimming pool at a SU holiday.

I've spent the last week expecting to have a period and hence being very snappy and PMT-ish; I was meant to be leading at CH last Thursday but thought it was best not after having chewed several people out over the course of the day. I probably should stop beating up on Helena for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but it doesn't seem to bother her, so I guess it's not too much of a priority.

We had Economics in the computer room yesterday and she discovered how to make Laura (the small one) jump, and then we sent a wheely chair over (express delivery) and declared that it was 'give Laura a heart attack day'. (The chair was originally aimed for a) the centre of the room, b) Mr Moore, but I decided it was altogether too obvious that I was the only one with a good angle to those places whereas as Helena had already been tormenting Laura she was the first suspect for the chair delivery.)

Yes, I'm mean. Did you have a question?

Anyway, Laura was playing Tetris and Pacman when we were meant to be working; at least we were pretending to be working while we talked about AD&D characters. The reason I'm at skip=100 is that I've spent an inordinate amount of time creating and messing with an 18th-level AD&D character for a random Rondak's Portal game Melody insisted we both applied for. I burnt two evenings trying to maximise her saves and AC. Her history is over 3500 words long - well, she *is* an eighteenth level elf, 170 years old, multiclassed four ways (Barbarian 1 / Fighter 4 / Order of the Bow Initiate 8 / Ghostwalker 5). And now her fortitude save is +30 and her AC is 41. She has four or five arrowshots (five if she
takes -2 to hit) at 1d8+13+1d6 per arrow, add another damage if she's firing masterwork or magic arrows. I still don't
give her thirty seconds against Melody's sorceress, though.

I am skipping school today. This is Naughty. Then again, I *am* in the 6th form and my parents are fully colluding
on the issue, so *shrug*.
