In one of my literature classes, Professor Flesch is in as a guest speaker, talking about the possibility that Claudius and Gertrude may have had an affair before Hamlet Sr. died, and therefore the chance that Hamlet was actually the son of Claudius. I am amused and interested.

Light night I experimented with the vegan dishes that [info]jh1230 enjoyed so much when his professor from last semester threw a class dinner. We made artichoke pie, carrot and pear soup, and [info]witticaster handled the mocha cake. Jared and I had to wrestle with the old Cuinsinart when it came to the soup, but it worked out in the end, and he was a really big help putting that together. As for the artichoke dish, hey, I've never met a pie I couldn't tackle. I was impressed with Mac's baking skills; cakes are hard to make from scratch. She also whipped up the most perfect homemade icing, which is something I always have a hard time pulling off. While normally I don't really feel satisfied without some kind of animal protein, I liked this dinner. It made me feel much better about having [info]lightgamer and [info]twilighttremolo. They're such good company I wanted to show them a good time. I don't know how often I can make myself leave out any kind of meat dish, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't work on adding really substantial vegetarian dishes that complement the carnivorous main one, so it's still a full meal if you don't eat meat.

I got my casting hint for All's Well That Ends at Intercon, and I think I'm pleased. I am genuinely cross-cast for the first time in any game ever. Well, maybe. I may be in LXHG as well, but it's actually not clear, and to be honest in that game it doesn't seem all that significant. Despite the fact that I always say I'm okay with cross-casting, no one has ever really done it before. I played my Marlowe 2020 character as male, but like most characters in that game it was gender neutral, so it was only by choice that I wasn't female. The funny thing about who I am in All's Well, however, is that I'm not only cross-cast, I'm kind of double cross-cast. ;-D The GMs asked that we not announce who we are, so I won't say any more than that, but I'm very amused. I think I need to borrow some things from the Hold Thy Peace locker for my costume. What I wore as Dromio in Comedy of Errors may be just the thing.
