she's got a name

I call it "Vera" ;)

After a loan of almost (over?) a year, one of my historic fencing coaches offered to sell me the rapier I've been using at a hideously good discount. It a Paul Chen practical rapier - not as posh as a Darkwood Armory but still pretty damn sexy! And after all this time with it, I know what it feels like and how I can handle it.

Total armory = 1 practice foil, 1 electric foil, 1 dueling saber, and now 1 rapier. Let's hunt some orc!

Find your own pose!

Not sure what in the seemingly unrelated questions led to this result; all I can say is I can't remember ever having woken up in either figure's position....granted, there's usually a cat in the bed with us so that probably has some effect..

Not sure what this quiz means when it suggests "try other sleep positions" and the like - when you're asleep it's hard to control the tossing and turning, so where you start out isn't necessarily where you end up :P
