roller derby

It’s been a while! I’ve been off having fun, but now that I’ve set my Spooky September goals I’m back for a JULY RECAP OF AWESOME.

July

Highlight of this month was hanging out with Lisa from Dear Geek Place and our friend Nik from all the way across the pond! Had amazing food at the Rocpool in Inverness, saw Urquhart Castle, went on a Jacobite Cruise, had an amazing DnD game, and basically had an amazing super-summery time. 

• Visited Cumbria in England! Lovely part of the world, beautiful coastlines.
• Laid flooring in the conservatory.

• • • GOT A MEGA-COMFY CONSERVATORY READING CHAIR YASSS.
    • Read: Days of Blood & Starlight (loved this audiobook), Sleepless Domain (webcomic about magical girls, SO GOOD), The Golemn and the Djinni (another fantastic audiobook).

• • • Was left VERY UPSET by a certain plot twist in the mega-popular Critical Role Dungeons & Dragons YouTube series. Still not over it, honestly. Long may he reign.
    • Other TV watched: Luke Cage S2, Talks Machina, The Flash, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Samurai Champloo.
    • Volunteered for STEMNET at the Highland Glider Club open day. Helped lots of kids learn more about science and tech.
    • We fought spiders in DnD. Please don’t make me fight spiders in DnD.

• • • Took Mac into Pets at Home for the first time, where the staff spoiled him rotten and he was a very good boy.

• • • Attended the ‘School of ARRG Knocks’ roller derby boot camp! That was incredible fun.
    • Sat in a GINORMOUS TRACTOR.

• • • In July I just did a few scrappy doodles of my traumatised Tiefling, Taro, who you might recognise from this post. She’s not developing as fast as my other campaign character, a charge-into-the-battle wereshark, but she’s getting there.
