To clarify the post below

I really wish someone would tell me when I’m too fat, bad at GMing, not funny, not interesting and when they are tired of me.

Beacuse I realised last night at DnD that I am all those things. Somehow I’ve put on weight. Somehow I can’t seem to get to bed at a decent time [it's already 2230 and I still need to shower]. Anything I say is met by blank stares. If I try to tell a joke, all I get is a few titters. I obviously can’t keep my DnD group involved in my admitedly sketcky RPG wich means I am a bad GM, and I just get the impresion that my current group of mates is getting extreemly tired of me. I feel like they are all so close and stuff and that I’m the outsider. Like I’m a third wheel [in effect]. I feel like someone’s kid sister trying to look cool and join in with her older sibling’s mates. Worse, I feel like they only tolerate me beacuse I’m Andy’s other half. and even he seems to find my presence wearing.

I think… I think I’m turning into a Luke.

It’s times like these when I wish someone would just tell me to go the hell away. It’s also times like these when I feel that there is something about me that instantly puts people off me; makes them want to avoid me at all possible times and run away when I approch them.

A long time ago, Andy told me that there is some internal conflict I have, something about my confiden self struggling to stop being repressed by my more modest self, that people can sense about me. It puts them off beacuse they think I’m a time-bomb, but not that kind with the handy count-down timer on the top, or the exposed wires. Also, he said, that they never know what to say or do around me for fear that it might set me off, cut the wrong wire, if you like.
I think his explanation sounds reasnobal, but I just don’t feel this conflict within myself, so how can I stop it?

Maybe, I should just avoid people for a while…

This would be why I loose at life.

Christmas wishlist meme

I nabbed this from the Gledster

Step One

* Make a post (public, friends locked, filtered…whatever you’re comfortable with) to your LJ/blog. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related (“I’d love a Snape/Hermione icon that’s just for me”) to medium (“I wish for _____ on DVD”) to really big (“All I want for [insert seasonal celebration here] is a new car/computer/house/TV.”) The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

* If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it’s your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

* Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ/blog so that the holiday joy will spread.

Step Two

* Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here’s the important part:

* If you see a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make someone’s wish come true. Sometimes someone’s trash is another’s treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you won’t use–or even know where you could get someone’s dream purebred Basset Hound for free–do it.

* You needn’t spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn’t to put people out, it’s to provide everyone a chance to be someone else’s holiday elf–to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not–it’s your call.

* There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just…wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you’ll have the joy of knowing you made someone’s holiday special.

Accent? Me?

That’s the second time at Zelweger I’ve been accused of not being ‘from around here’ [here being dorset]. Apparently I have some accent. When I asked Jade-who-I-work-with, she agreed I had a cirtain ‘twang’.

If this keeps on, I’m gonna get a complex…

[I'd record myself but I don't have a mic or software]

* It is impossible to get hold of soda stream cola concentrate

* I’m exhausted and I’ve been drinking generic energy/ stimulation drink non stop since 1700. How does that work?

* I’m always energetic, ready and up for anything, according to Andy. ‘If there’s a kid stuck in a tree in africa, you’re there. Super Laura, away!’ I love my man :D

* ‘***You Are 70% Weird***
You’re so weird, you think you’re *totally* normal. Right?
But you wig out even the biggest of circus freaks!
How Weird Are You?

* ‘***Your Hidden Talent***
You have the power to persuade and influence others.
You’re the type of person who can turn a whole room around.
The potential for great leadership is there, as long as you don’t abuse it.
Always remember, you have a lot more power over people than you might think!

Life on hold

So, I don’t have time to write a full reprt of the expo weekend [I'm too busy nanowrimo-ing], but:
I dressed up
I didn’t win anything because I was too chicken to enter
I spend far to much money [234£]
I had a brilliant time
I like saki
I like japanise and Thai food
I didn’t get to see Micheal Shanks [Daniel from SG1]
I did get to see some other SG1 people
I did see a load of other awsom cosplayers
I got lots of fun anime and manga and sci-fi and other yummy stuff
I got some cool presents for people
I had a really awsom time
I spend lots of money
I looked fantastic in my outfit
my dad was really pround of how I looked so is taking a pic of me in to show his work mates
I almost met Jeff Wayn [of wor of the worlds fame] but I wasn’t quick enough
I met the voice of Akira briefly
I had a really awsom time and spent to much and got lots of goodies

Next year we are planning to go as the crew of Serenity. I got nomiated for kayle [by myself and alex], River [by Daniel] and Inara [by Barry]. I’m sure that says a lot about my mates… But I shall go as Kaylee, Alex should be as Simon, Kelly as Zoe, Monkey as Jayn and Daniel as Walsh.

But, yeah. It was great ^.^ :D
