PTA pitch session tongiht, followed by Shadows Over Camelot to finish up the evening. Can I do a PTA pitch in Twitter-length? Hmm.. #SG-pta #
#sg Storygame mashup: PTA/Paladin. Holy warriors defend the last bastion of humanity from sorcery and the unliving. And there’s sex and sfx. #
Don’t worry, @cyface: the whole point is that the pitches will be, largely, crap. Anyone have good rules of thumb for awesome PTA pitches? #
I suppose a good rule of thumb is ‘what show concept would make you remember to sit down and catch the first episode?’ #sg-pta #

Reached the ambulatory, caffeine-tropism stage of faux-conscious. The blood sludge moves through my veins only under protest. Grahrr. #

Up too early today. My whole mental schedule is one hour shifted; thinking of the next thing to do, my brain keeps responding “lunch.” #

Heading into party at friend of friend’s place, full of strangers. Uncomfortable. If anyone asks, my safeword is ‘jackalope.’ #
At the Butterfly Pavillion. Kaylee had exclusive control of the only camera, and held the tarantula in her hand. #

Annual review. Time to reconcile the Awesome in your head with the Tolerable in your boss’s. #
No on else I follow has linked it, so I’ll ring in the month with an an awesome (seriously NSFW) “First of May” hum-along. http://is.gd/vUBR #

So @daphneun is going to Wolverine with ‘the girls.’ (Intersect Update: Naked Hugh Jackman = chickflick, apparently.) So… when do *I* go? #
4e Question: Are there any good level 5 dailies for a dwarven hammer&sheild “tank” fighter? The three in the PHB leave me nonplussed. #

My 1000th Twitter post will be fiction, I think. Unless it’s not. (It will also probably be a little later today, which is neat.) #

Working up a basic punctuation review for a study group next week. Those who know me will find this, hilarious. #
Outside my bedroom window – branches broken by the storm. I envy that evidence; my pillow didn’t even smell like your hair, afterwards. #vss #
Yes, #vss (very short story) is an annoyingly short (and obtuse) hashtag, but the only one I could fit. #
Throwing strikes, but the 5 pin continues pull Neo-in-the-Matrix-Lobby-fight moves. Fucking Neo. #

Working my way through another delightful Hugo nominee. Nation and Little Brother complete, Graveyard Book in process. What to read next? #
