Made from Truth and Lies

Been busy the last few days. Monday - playing BSG, Tuesday - playing the new edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (which is excellent, by the way), Wednesday - picking Julie up from the airport, Thursday - first night of Julie being back, Friday - meal with Padmini. I am thus behind on much of the internet. I hope you've not been having too much fun without me.

Meantime, have a personals ad:
