Roleplaying: Short Intro
One of my hobbies is to play roleplaying games. No, not the sexual kind of roleplaying. What I play with my friends is the type with paper, pens, dice and books. I get a lot of questions on the topic so I am going to make some things clear.
Q: How do you play a roleplaying game?
A: Think improv-theater at a table with dice. Not accurate, but close enough. One person has the role as "Director" of sorts and the others play the main cast. Hard to descrive it in a better way.
Q: Can or how do you win?
A: Can you "win" at living life? I would say, no.
Q: If you can't win, then what's the fun in it?
A: Many roleplaying games are about being in the shoes of an ordinary person in an extraordinary situation. People have told stories for countless generations. Storytelling is something that will, in one way or another, always be something that people enjoy. Most roleplaying games take the core of storytelling and modifies it so it becomes interactive. In theory, if you enjoy storytelling, be it books, film or theater you can enjoy roleplaying games.
Well I think that is good enough for now.

New look.
Now I have updated this blog with the new look too. Now I just have to start filling this blog with some stuff. Will come soon enough. Too lazy and tired at the moment to write anything with substance. For those of you how can't guess why my blog looks the way it does is because it reflects my intrestes. This blog will have stuff about gaming, rollplaying, music and random. Hope you enjoy.

Limericks!
Now some verses I write for thee,
lines one two and five rhyme free,
then these here lines two,
on thier own rhyme too!
Limericks are like this you see.
The poet writing here is Sir Clay,
whos fingers you all should flay,
then lay him in sleet,
hang him by his feet,
for his rhymes are shit I would say!
Few hear of what I do to spend time,
some claim I talk as much as a mime,
so I'll spill the beans,
I know how much it means,
for people when I here write a line.
Adrian, Johannes and I,
with a Racoon very close by,
we will all roll dice,
chars will be made thrice,
"Dark Heresy" the game we shall try.
Tomorrow people will bring snacks,
dice, pens, papper and heavy backpacks,
thats the way to be,
ready for an RPG,
pray noone forgets thier rucksacks!
It is almost eight a m,
and I'm am hungry like dae m,
I will drink some tea,
with milk that's fat-free,
and I think a sandwich with hay m.

Back in Black
I have now returned to Sweden. Feels good to be back home and all, but some things are eating away at my mind. Now some of my past misstakes have become painfully obvious.
I was going to bitch and moan in this post, but I just realized that I have no right to complain as most of the things I want to bitch about, if not all, are self inflicted. Let this be a "breath of fresh air" in the blog and reasurrance that I won't stop writing.
The reason for my mood is because it's in the middle of the damn night and I am awake. When I'm alone late at night I, more often then not, feel depressed. The surpressed feelings during the day emerge at night.
Time for to stop writing, 'cause I sound like a fucking Emo right now.

Change of Plans
So I ended up back in Redwood City instead of Texas. Back to base and regroup. Going to leave for Texas in week, I think. In the meantime I'll fight this cold I'e got a try to earn a few bucks working for my Grandfather. We'll see how that turns out.

Moving On
So my last day in Reno has come. I'll be packing my stuff in a couple of hours to get ready for my next trip, 12 hour bus to Los Angeles. Once there I'll meet up with my father and do some work. Sounds like the job is fairly simple and pretty good pay. Then we'll be heading out to Texas.
As I don't know much about the places I'll be staying at I can't assure that I can get a hold of people. Don't think I'll have internet. Time will tell.
Wish me luck

Nevada
Right now I'm at my friend Mark's house i Reno, Nevada. I've been here just over a week now and it has been great. I've been around town abit. Not much to see. Otherwise I've hung out with Mark and his two roomies Kris and Jerry. Nice guys. Lots of video games and card games. Hardcore nerds here, so beware.
Soon I'll be on my way down to Los Angeles and kick it with my dad, and then head out to Texas.
'Till next time

The Forest
So I've been out camping this weekend. We were about 20 at a site in the middle of nowhere, Northern California. Got there at 1:30 am an the saturday. Set up our tent and fell asleep. I spent the Saturday river tubing. I popped my tube but it all ended well. Sunday was I went to a waterfall and watched people jump of it. Wasn't in the mood to do so myself.
Was a very nice weekend with great people. Now I'm tired as hell.
Texas soon?

Not as I Planed
Well I was going to write something mildly interesting here, but the subject I was going to write about made me feel so bad. Too much to handle right now. I might write about it tomorrow. I will blame the night. I am most emotional at night.

Weak...
Damn I feel like a whiney bitch. The only thing I can think of to write about is the pain in my lower back, head, neck and shoulders. I need to toughen up. So today I tried to do just that.
I helped a woman move some stuff she had in storage to her new apartment. Was some good exercise. Now I'm totaly worn out, but hey, it was worth the money. Tomorrow I might look around the area I live in and look for a store to buy some fun things at.
I hope I find what I'm looking for!

Jump!
So yesterday I borrowed one of Jason's skateboards. I tried to get the basics down. Ride, turn, and ollie. That has resulted in back pain and sore thighs.Talked to my dad for the first time since who knows when. Might take a trip with him to Texas.
Today I've been San Mateo County Fair and just relaxed. Got a massage, ate a corn dog and a funnel cake. Was very nice. We went to the Drive-thru at Taco Bell on the way back. Now I'm full and tired, so I'll go to bed.

God Bless America (but he sure didn't bless the trip there)
So now I'm sitting in the kitchen of the house I'll be living in for a while. Haven't posted anything on the blog due to bad internet but I seem to have fixed that.
The whole trip took about 50 hours as I had to spend 23 at the airport in Frankfurt and that was a bore. Didn't sleep for more then two hours at a time. Had to sleep on benches. Wasn't that fun. But now that I'm finally in Redwood City I'm having a blast.
I've meet some relatives and my brother Jason's friends. Nice people all around. I've been almost constantly eating. English muffins and pop tarts and burritos and so on.
Weather has been good. Around 70-85 degrees F (~22-30 C) so I've been able to handle it fairly well.
I'll continue to update as things happen over here.
