Whee! Friday Five!

1. What housekeeping chore(s) do you hate doing the most? Heh... which ones do I NOT hate, is more like it! :) But among the things that I really hate is making the bed... my theory is that if you are just gonna sleep in it again in about 16 hours, why bother making it? So I don't! :) Dishes also suck, as does trying to clean the bathtub (I say TRYING, cuz it's very hard to do with the way our shower doors are set up)...

2. Are there any that you like or don't mind doing? I don't mind cleaning the mirrors, and the bathroom sink isn't too bad... and sweeping has always been fine with me... :)

3. Do you have a routine throughout the week or just clean as it's needed? Mostly just as it's needed, though much more gets done on Sunday (usually while the laundry is getting done) than any other day...

4. Do you have any odd cleaning/housekeeping quirks or rules? Most likely, I do, but I don't realize it... :)

5. What was the last thing you cleaned? Uhhh... ummm... oh, wait, I cleaned up the top of my sewing machine table this morning... there was a whole lot of clutter all over it... :)

::..::

I made my Marvel character last night, and she's kinda kewl... :) When Karac let me look at the powers table, there was very little that I actually wanted... he let me take Thermal Control without rolling it, so that I could at least do something that I wanted to be able to do... that power will let me raise and lower temperatures... the guys think this is kewl, cuz then I can air condition the team, so that they can wear trenchcoats year round... :)

I also got Heat / Fire Resistance, which will let me, more or less, stand in the middle of a fire and not really be affected... :)

Then I got Plasticity and Elongation... kinda like Mr. Fantastic... I wasn't so sure about those to begin with, but one of the things that Karac mentioned that I could do with it is use it for disguise... like rearranging my features... so I was all for it then... :)

And then my final power was Telekinesis... need I say more? :) I love TK... :)

So the character's name is Pyretta Blaze (blatant ripoff on my part), and she's an Altered Human... a horrible tragic tanning bed incident was what gave her her powers... :) Yes, it's kinda cheezy, but I'm just having fun with it... :) Anyways, the story is that she was horribly burned to a crisp, but something about whatever caused the accident also gave her super powers... she would be really disfigured, except the Plasticity let her fix herself up again... :)

The only downside to all of this, though, is that some of her stats and powers are penalized when her skin is exposed to bright light... like a normally lit room will mess her up... so she has to wear a whole lot of protective clothing... which is another reason why the "air conditioning" will come in handy... :) Anyways, that was something that I decided to do to her, cuz what fun is a character with no flaws at all? :)

So I'm really looking forward to my first game on Tuesday... it should be a blast... :) Now just to work out how I'm hooking up with the team... :)
