... the Ides of March beware!

And, while I'm at it, I'll write my belated DF birthday post, too. Hah.

So, happy anniversary, desperatefans. All in all, it's been a lovely year (or not-quite-year for me, as it is). We've had fun, angst, the good and the bad kind of insanity.

Somehow, the community is a lot like a huge family, my kind of family. There are the people you just can't stand, like my aunt Beate. There are people who think their Issues must be the measure for how all things are run, like my grandfather. There are people who insist on their own opinion being the only true one and whom I'd really like to slap around sometimes, like my mom and grandmom. There are people to whom all of the aforementioned applies.
There's the people who are probably nice deep down, but they're also immature annoying whiny brats at times, like my cousins Sandra and Stefan. There are people who're probably really nice, but with whom you have almost no dealings, like the Canadian part of my family. There are people you'd really love to deal with more, but somehow, it never works out, like my aunt Emmy. There are people who left too early, like my uncle Christoph. There are the people who have, maybe a bit unexpectedly, become really good friends, like my brother. And then there are the best friends sort of people, who aren't part of the family, but with us by choice. It's all there. It's a metaphor for real life!

Ok, enough of the pseudo-profound babbling. Here's to the next year.

You know what I just remembered? That I set up a character for DF almost a year ago and he never got more than an introductory post. I'm a bad person.

You are! .. not really, though. But I am curious now: Who was it?

The first Peter Pevensie. :"> I can only assume I got distracted by Real Life. It tends to happen to me. Besides, I think my brain can only cope with one crack!RPG at a time.
