Stuff I brought back

[eurydicebound]

So in addition to my new purse and new coat and new... I dunno, wrap thingy, and all the stuff my boys got for Christmas, I managed to stuff a few things I'd left at Mom's into my suitcase here and there. Among them:

1) The Big White Book for Nobilis, 2nd ed. Also, the Game of Powers book. It is possibly the least useful book I could have grabbed, but I wanted to have them both here. So be it.

2) My copy of the Gother Than Thou card game. My friend Steen did the image work and posed for some of the pics. I haven't actually played it yet, but I will.

3) Five packages of pictures from my time in Chicago, when my kids were both toddlers. Absolutely adorable -- not that they aren't now, but it's not the same.

4) Two small photo albums with family pictures, including kid pics of me and my brother. It includes about my favorite picture of myself as a little girl, too. Also... I look a lot like my grandmother. I had never realized how much. I don't know what to make of that, but I think it's a good thing.

5) My Stage Costume book. Of all the books I have, this is one of the few I had actively wished I had here over the years. It's exceptionally useful, and taught me a lot about tailoring. Excellent book if you're into that sort of thing.

I'm getting it back, one piece at a time.

You know, I never got the card game (I'd wanted to), but I do have the tee shirt. I like showing it to friends who get all the gothic literary references. :) Oh, and among the gaming books I've kept, I definitely held on to my copy of Nobilis. It's just so damned pretty.
