How are you doing? :)
So I read through the rules and they're a lot to digest but I'll be fine. I have no idea what the hell I'm doing with the character profile template though. XD I feel so dumb!
Um, I guess I should post about me. Well I have a lot of time on my hands. I live with and take care of my grandfather. It's weird because he's super independent but he's also one fall away from catastrophe, and in fact did fall back in the Spring and I had to drive him to the hospital. My grandmother died back in November and roleplaying has helped distract me and helped me cope. I was just beginning to learn to live in my new normal.
Then, in June of this year it happened. The worst day of my life. I got a call from my sister. She's screaming, crying into the phone, "Jamie jumped off the MacDonald Bridge! What do I do?". Jamie was my brother. I would never leave my grandfather alone except this one time. I had to go to a different province for my brother's viewing. I begged my grandfather to still be here when I got back. Thankfully he was and is. It's been barely two months now. The shell shock of my brother's suicide lasted a while but it's passed. Now it's just sadness and emptiness all the time. My own lingering depression. I deleted both of my facebook accounts because I couldn't handle seeing him in my chat every time I log in. Having no facebook caused me to have even more spare time on my hands. I can't really work because that would defeat the purpose of me being here if something happened to my grandfather. So I looked for a new home. Found this site, and I really like it. A lot of care has been put into it. You can consider me a refugee from the black hole of the internet that is Facebook.
If I can ever get my head around the code of this place - and if I can ever find any actual motivation to post a character profile, maybe I'll join you guys.
Here is a video of my brother playing Beethoven:
Cheers
