Busy
Yesterday from a client, we all received our own bottles of “Willm Cremant d’Alsace Brut“, which through some search is apparently: “A Still Wine. An easy-drinking sparkler. Quite frothy with light tones of honey and candied fruit.” A nice sentiment 
I will probably save it for Christmas Day with my dad. I’ve drank a lot of mead, but I don’t think I’ve ever had wine.
This Saturday we’re having our Winter Solstice ritual at the Grove. In a way I’m looking forward to it, for the spiritual aspect. But in another way, I’m not. Mostly the moving watching and such that people intend to do all night. But I will be attempting to immerse myself into this ritual more.
My sister also called last night and asked to come over this weekend. I told her that I’d be going to a ritual on Saturday, just to warn her, but she wanted to come anyway. I’m hoping this doesn’t blow up in my face like last time.
Dad has baked over 100 dozen cookies. I dunno why he bakes so much, but he enjoys it so… We give them away as gifts, and I’m sure I will bring plenty to work to give away. They’re just so…tempting.
Things on the MUD are progressing enormously well. It’s weird. I had originally opened into alpha phase, with the sole intention of mostly doing some code/system testing with some roleplay inbetween. But the players have completely kickstarted the entire thing into fully operational, complete with fantastic character development and roleplay. It’s actually concerned me a little bit because I’m not sure I have the staff to be able to keep up, but we’re doing alright so far. Plus an old staff member came back recently, whose roleplay is admirable.
I haven’t even advertised yet and we’re already up to 131 pfiles, which is probably about 15 regular players, their alts and a bunch of folks who stopped by but don’t want to or don’t think they can play yet. I’m looking at spring to advance into beta testing and actually start advertising for players.
I’ll be starting my cherokee II classes in January, and I’ve been playing the guitar more. I suppose it would do me good to learn how to actually read music. So that’s on the menu.
Huzzah for being busy.

Here’s to the MUD. May it live up to and surpass all your expectations.

Also, you get a point for the use of “Huzzah.”

“I suppose it would do me good to learn how to actually read music.”
