Pieces of a former me

So as part of David's last trip to Oklahoma, he brought some stuff back with him that we'd had stored there for some time. Two boxes arrved today, for example, all filled with toys the boys hadn't seen in ages. On a more personal note, though, I had two specific things come back that I've been happy to see again. The first is my stained glass grinder and tools. (Yay!) The second is all the papers that we'd had in an old filing cabinet, many of which I'd forgotten about. In specific, among them was a journal of poetry I'd been working on. These aren't exactly world shaking poems. Many of them were done primarily as writing exercises I'd set for myself, dealing with characterization and visualization. Quality varies greatly, at least to my present-day jaded eye. Back in the day I was pretty proud of them, though.

Also, as a new and exciting development, I *gasp* BOUGHT roleplaying books today! I literally could not tell you the last one I bought, rather than traded or wrote for. It's been a really long time though. For the record, I purchased two books: Werewolf the Forsaken and the updated Witchfire Trilogy, Collectors Edition. I'd have bought a copy of Savage Worlds 2nd Edition if he'd have had it.
