Waiting for my first online virtual tabletop role-playing game experience to begin.
We're playing THE SECRETS OF CATS, a setting for the FATE Core ruleset.
I have a black and white Maine Coon Cat named Slip (because he can "slip" in and out of almost anywhere) who lives in a theater and thus is a wee bit odd. He also sings. "MMmmmrmmrrrrrraaaaaasaaaooooOOOOWWWWW!!!"
Never done this before, might be a way I can get some gaming in from time to time since I almost never have Sunday nights free to go to Great River Gaming Guild.
We're using Roll20.com as the host for our game. I like the site and hope to delve more deeply into what it can do in days to come.
I'll share my thoughts and the experience when we're done.
I will note that if someone wanted to go all-out with the online virtual tabletop experience, they would have a decent webcam, a good headset and mic, and possibly multiple monitors to have more than one window open at a time.
Me, I cannot find my mic ANYWHERE. Last used it to share a TrainSim 2015 Teamspeak get-together last spring, but I've moved since then. I'm sure I'll find it in a box somewhere when I no longer need it.
Off we go, into realms of fantasy... :)

A Lottle Self-Discipline Is A Good Thing
There's a typo in the title, I know. Bear with me here.
As you can see by the paucity of postings here, I am TERRIBLE at getting my heinie in gear and sitting down and WRITING.
I wander around talking to myself, with countless great and creative ideas spoken to the winds and swept away never to be expanded or utilized, instead of pulling out a pad of paper (or sitting at the computer) and writing the durn things down.
Some self-discipline would be helpful. Some? Pssssh. A LOT!
I suppose the only way to GET it is to DO it. So once again I will resolve to post on a regular basis and I will ask you all to nudge me if I don't say something for a few days.
That is all.

PS. Oh yes, the typo. I was going to fix it, then realized that "Lottle" actually fit what I was going to say. I could use a lottle (not a little) helping of the titular dedication and hard work. Meh, it's not the best joke ever, but I don't claim to be a comdian.
