I Am A: Chaotic Good Elf Bard Ranger
Alignment:
Chaotic Good characters are independent types with a strong belief in the value of goodness. They have little use for governments and other forces of order, and will generally do their own things, without heed to such groups.
Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.
Primary Class:
Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit.
Secondary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.

Another one of my son's exploits....
I was recently deployed to Operation Enduring Freedom and my husband is stationed in Korea, so, my father ended up having to watch Jacob and Raisa for 3 months. During that time, of course my dad, had to, at times, had to discipline the kids.
One time, my father have to give Raisa a light spanking and she cried of course. Well Jacob, trying to defend his sister said this:
Jacob "Grandpa? Why did you hit Raisa?"
Grandpa "I spank you because I love you."
Jacob stood there a minute, and then put his hands on his hips, and said with a completely straight face. "Grandpa....that don't make no sense!"

My son HAD to buy Axe body wash. HAD TO. Even had sorta a tantrum about it. He really really wanted it....so...as a parent that wants her son clean, and wants him to WANT to be clean, I got it for him. Yay! for cleanliness, right?
He's 5 by the way.
Later...I asked him why he had to have Axe....
He said....
"It makes women love you."
He's 5....

Well....I thought I'd add more here. Since my last entry I think I've been to Baghdad and back and to AF school and I've gotten my Degree. Anywhoo....enough about me, this is about my kids.
I'll try to remember this correctly....as I should have wrote it after it happened.
My kids were jumping on the trampoline one sunny day. We live on the second house from the corner as does our backyard neighbors. Well they have a son too, who was watching my kids jump on the trampoline. My kids watched him watch them, so finally my daughter asked him. "What are you looking at?" The other child answered. "None of your business."
Both my kids took offense at that, but while Raisa ignored him....my son turned around and dropped his pants. "Look at this then." and started jumpping around with his butt mooning them.
The mom walked all the way around the block to my front door....oy.
It was hard not to laugh...be a good parent! be a good parent!!
-----------------
Just now...my son walked up to me and gave me a hug. He said. "Mom I love you and when I grow up I want to marry you....and Raisa because I love her too. But I can't marry daddy....because he's a boy and I'm a boy."
....well at the least we know he's not gay.

The minds of kids....
I tell you....the advertising market today either is pure genius...or its the devil incarnate. By flashing a few pretty people or a couple of gadgets or showing how wonderful the food looks, they are able to ensnare hundreds of thousands of the faceless masses with their lies, their falsehoods, their 'gotta-have-its'.
Including my 5 year old daughter.
Two things of note she's said today and over the past week.
I'll start with the, what I consider, lesser of the two.
It was a food commercial. Some delectable scrumptious morsel dripping with fat and calories and loaded with yummy. Of course this 2 oz, 5 ga-zillion calorie food was just what a 5 year old wants, and needs. We tried to explain to her that people can't just eat anything they want all the time. That it wasn't healthy, that your growing body needs more nutritious things. That its not good to be fat. You know...like good parents should. Right? RIGHT? Our daughters response? "I wanna be fat." We told her again, it wasn't healthy. "I don't want to be healthy. I wanna be fat." -sigh- I see an ice cream binge in the future....my binge that is.
The second thing. It was that Valtrex commercial. You know the one? With the woman who has herpes playing tennis, riding her bike and horses, relaxing at pool side, having a good time with her sig. other? Yay herpes! My daughter saw this. And she too wants to ride her bike and the nice horses, swim and play tennis. Its fun. Muchly. Of course, in her young mind there is only one way to get such amenities. "Mommy, I want herpes."
I fell over. Plumb off the couch.
How to explain to her that herpes is NOT fun, having never gotten it myself, and trying to compete against that devil which is the television. Its not possible. Her father and I tried to explain and eventually she dropped it, but I could all but hear her voice inside her head (because its what I would have done at her age) saying ~Yeah...I still want herpes.~

I've decided to use this medium as an outlet for my son's exploits. Perhaps this will out-date me and when I am dead and gone and people wonder why my son is a thug....they will have this record a proof that whatever thoughts roam though his young mind...are far beyond MY ability to comprehend.
A bit of background first. My son has been diagnosed with ADHD. That is...Attention Deficit/Hyper Disorder. He's on drugs to help his mind focus on things he needs. Before he was on these so-called wonder drugs, he was in the Child Development center here on base. Now, while I would be the first to admit that this center is run by nazi aliens, I did feel for them an their lack of ability to deal with my beloved son. After a years worth of daily behavioral reports ranging from biting to hitting to pushing kids down slides and into trash cans (head first by the way) they had finally had enough and decided to kick him out. For the safety of the other kids you see.
Now again, a part of me understands this reasoning. I, as a parent wouldn't be to thrilled that someone else's 'brat' was throwing my child headfirst into a trash can, still I can't help but wonder if at least part of the blame falls on the caregivers. After all, on two occasions they managed to lose my son. Yes...lost. My husband arrived to pick him up and they told him he'd already gone home. This happened twice. Another time he was able to climb the restraining fence and get the water hose from the coiling machine it was kept in, push it through the fence and then climb back over to play with the hose inside the play area. They didn't notice till he started spraying the others kids. And another time he was able to pile up all the toys and climb to the top of the toy shed...mind you.... both the toy shed and the restraining fence are at least 5 feet tall, and the shed is about 6.
...where were these vaunted caregivers then??
But I digress. Ironically they kicked my son out AFTER they told us we needed to get him help. This we already knew, and it was in the works. It didn't help also that my son had a slight hearing problem because his tonsils were so big they closed off the Eustachian tube (the tube that goes from your inner ear to your throat) and stopped the natural drainage of his ears. This caused his ears to fill up with fluid and his hearing to suffer. To this day he still has trouble speaking clearly. Hopefully this will clear up with age.
So we take the boy to the shrink to get him evaluated, and it comes back the way we figured. ADHD. So he gets drugs...which would start the day we got them. This was a friday. Drugs started monday....and what day do they kick him out on? Yes, friday.
Bastards!
Funnily enough he's not had NEAR the problems in the home day care we were so callously forced to find on extremely short notice. Jennifer is wonderful and since her own son is also ADHD, she is well able to deal with Jacob.
That leads us to today. I wish that I had decided to do this a long time ago, as I'm sure this would make good reading, but as this is the first day, I'll just start with today.
--Saturday May 28, 2005
Today my son, after swimming in the pool, dried off and got dressed. Then about an hour later he decided to take all his clothes off again and walk through the house naked. My husband and I both watched him walk by happily wondering what he was doing, when he walked into the kitchen, then to the laundry room....where he proceeded to relieve himself in the dogs water dish before heading back to his own room. After much punishment and a fresh bowl of water for the poor dog, I am left with only the burning question of "What the fuck is going through his mind to make him do that?!"
...oy...its going to be a long 18 years....

Either you looked up the answers or you're the best of the best, the type that makes other gamers strive to know more. Just don't let the knowledge overwhelm the newbies, it tends to push them from the hobby. We all bow before you. You are the living nat 20, congradulations. I'm going to flee the scene now ;) |

Psionicist
You scored 47 Holy, 57 Tactful, 72 Natural, and 60 Arcane! |
| Your eye flutters for a second and the world loses focus... when clarity returns you realize that the only person in the room who wasn't knocked unconscious is holding his temples and writhing on the ground. Nobody knows what you just did, even you, but you know it happened because you made it happen. You have taught reality that your desires are more important than it's fickle laws (or you can, rather). You are one of the rare psionicists, the masters of mind over matter. Your approach to problems is a rare blend of intuition, force of personality, and careful planning. You're all right in a fight, but can really hold your own only once you've stacked the laws of this universe on your side. Thankfully, with practice, you can do this with ease. Hmm, my guess is that you're a bit lacking ethically speaking however... just a guess though, creep. |

Ill winds mark its fearsome flight,
and autumn branches creak with fright.
The landscape turns to ashen crumbs,
when something wicked this way comes.
Crystal water turns to dark,
where e'er its presence leaves its mark,
and boiling currents pound like drums,
when something wicked this way comes.
A presence dark invades the fair,
and gives the horses ample scare,
for chaos reigns and panic numbs,
when something wicked this way comes.

You're a Cardassian! Intelligent and devious,
you're a bit of an enigma to those around you
and scientific to the core.
What Star Trek Race Are You?

Well....I guess that's not too bad. Seeing as Cardassians are my favorite ST race. (Its probably cause they look reptilian :) and that I think Garak is a cutie...a devious cutie...but still a cutie.)

You Are Kermit's Fear of Abandonment.
You love banjoes, lily pads, as well as fun lovin'
bears and chickens and things. You loved Sesame
Street as a child, and watched it two, maybe
three times a day. You know all the words to
The Rainbow Connection, but you don't
necessarily like the fact that you're
inevitably paired with a pig for life.
But sadly, like The Muppets, you've been passed
around more times than a taped version of Dr.
Demento's Dungeons & Dragons bit. Every time
Jim Henson's bastard children sell your family
to some greedy conglomerate, a little bit of
your soul fades away.
But just remember, you know better than anyone that
it ain't easy being green.

Oh Lord who made the Dragon, and the Dragon's open sky,
And gave me a dragon's soul, a Dragon's urge to fly --
Let me dance within your cloudscapes far beyond Earth's chain,
Let me rejoice in my grandeur, let me not grow vain.
Let me vindicate my honor with my fang and claw,
Let my raging heart show mercy. Let that show no flaw!
Let me have the joy of all the shining gold I've stored.
Let no pauper dragon go forth starving from my horde.
And, Lord, should the need arise that I be called to fight...
Dragon-maker make me victor, and God ---- help that knight!

And ne'er was a creature so true and so loyal
as the watchful, courageous, and fearless gargoyle.
But the years came and went, and the people did, too.
and in time they forgot what their ancestors knew.
and whenever they passed by the gargoyles' lairs,
they trembled in fear at the gargoyles' stares.
And as time went along peoples' fear turned to spite,
and they sneered and they cursed at the gaurdians of night:
"demons!" they grumbled - "grotesque!" and "horrid!"
" those beasts dont belong on the house of the lord!"
when the gargoyles heard these words that were spoken,
their stony old hearts became crumbled and broken.
Then storms rumbled in and their eyes filled with rain,
and in stillness they stayed, alone and in pain.
But as it so happened, some angels were near,
and heeding the grief of a gargoyle's tear,
they each fluttered down from the heavens on high
to sit with the gargoyles beneath thundering skies.
now, angels have ways of making things right,
so they stayed with the gargoyles all through the night,
patting their heads and wiping their tears,
and whispering life into the gargoyles ears.
and soon all the gargoyles did magical things:
they gurgld and couhed and shook out their wings.
then together the gargoyles and angels took flight,
and they soared through the clouds on a blustery night.
and while over pastures and hills they were winging,
the voices of angels were radiantly singing
music of healing and songs of rebirth
to all of the creatures in all of the earth:
"god bless the rain and the storm clouds that bring it.
god bless the music and the voices that sing it.
god bless the ones who sing everything wrong.
god bless the creatures that do not belong.
god bless the hearts and the souls who are grieving
for those who have left and for those who are leaving.
god bless each perishing body and mind,
god bless all creatures remaining behind.
god bless the dreamers whose dreams have awoken.
god bless the lovers whose hearts have been broken.
god bless each soul that is tortured or taunted,
god bless all creatures alone and unwanted."
And the gargoyles beheld where ever they roamed
that the souls of the lost weren't really alone.
each one had an angel each one was protected,
and each one was cherished, and loved, and respected.
Ans so it is true with the gargoyles this day,
for all of the angels who love them have stayed.
and together they wait until days become nights,
to embark on their dark and most glorious flights.
so if you see shapes in the night sky, don't fear --
for it simply means angels and gargoyles are near,
easing the earth with their gentle night call:
"god bless the gargoyles. God bless us all."
