1. HOW DO YOU PUT UP WITH THE INEVITABLE LARP DRAMA AND GENERAL WHINYNESS? HOW DO YOU DO IT MAN! SERIOUSLY!
Honestly, a lot of my LARP players have become some of my closest friends over the years. That helps a lot when it comes to my dedication to keep the LARP going despite all of the problems and the pains in the asses! Obviously, it has not always been as easy as it sounds for me as my turnover ratio for players was quite brutal for a long time. (I have this strange image of Revolving Doors...)
When it comes to Drama, I confess that I have always been a Gossip Monger. Let's face it, I LOVE Soap Operas. It is much easier to deal with all of the Drama when you already have a knack for it... I may have lost a lot of sleep over it in the past but with time, I have come to seperate from it as much as I can and take things a lot less personally... I try to instruct and instill the same mentality into my victims... I mean players... also.
The General Whinyness just never stops. After years and years of putting up with it, I have eventually come up with a Radical Solution: Put My Foot Down. I don't take Crap from anyone anymore. This has most recently cost me a good friend (although everyone, including me, always knew she was too much of a Bitch to deal with eternally but there used to be hope...) but so much for the better. Ultimately, I have become more and more of a Control Freak and a Dictator when it comes to Storytelling the LARP (in particular) but as long as I am consistent with my Rulership, most people have come to Respect My Authority and deal with it.
2. WHERE IS YOUR FAVORITE PLACE TO EAT IN MONTREAL?
Tough question... I will have to go with two.
When it comes to the atmosphere and the theme, there is no doubt L'Auberge du Dragon Rouge (Inn of the Red Dragon) is definitely the place to be. This small, medieval-theme restaurant is just Sooooooooooo Great. Especially since I still have a Drinking Record there for the most shots of Sang du Dragon (Dragon's Blood: Tequila, Jack Daniel's, Tabasco Sauce... heated up! :o) with 10 in a single draught.
The other restaurant of choice is definitely Carlos and Pepe's, a great Mexican restaurant in Downtown Montreal. (Nachos Chili Con Carne rules! :o)
3. IF YOU COULD VISIT ANY PLACE IN CANADA, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?
The famous West Edmonton Mall. I have heard so much about it that I just have to go One Day. The fact that I could spend an entire vacation inside the same building and get to do everything involving Rest and Relaxation amuses me greatly! :o)
4. HOW EXCITED WERE YOU TO HEAR THAT JULIE, STEVE AND THE BOY ARE MOVING BACK OUT YOUR WAY?
It was Mind Blowing! :o)
When Steve and Julie left for Toronto, I realized what the expression: "You never know how much someone or something is worth until you lose them..." really meant. Now only did they leave for Ontario, I have missed out on some much going on with them since they have been in Toronto...
I was Jumping for Joy when I read Julia's LJ. (Since I don't read LJ and spend most of my reading time catching up... I read Curtana's Entry before Forthright's.) I am glad to know that I can still do Cartwheels at my weight. (Yeah... Riiiiiiight! ;o)
I have not stopped talking about it since with my girlfriend, Pascale, and a couple of my friends from the LARP.
5. ARE YOU BOOBS AS SEXY AS EVER? ;D
Needless to worry, Pamela Anderson and Janet Jackson have nothing over me. My Boobs are definitely as Sexy as Ever! All I have to do now is convince Hugh Heffner to get my a Snapshot for his next Playboy issue to make his models jealous... or a front page cover for Playgirl! :o) |
