This looks like a good source for icons: Micro Heros
And it looks like I have time to update now. It was a very good weekend, with a game on Friday that lasted for over four hours, resolved some major plot points, brought up another plot point, and contained what
olethros refers to as some of the most disturbing imagery ever (sorry!).
Then Saturday contained a barbecue with some of the SCA folks, experimenting with hot-smoking techniques using peat as the smoke source, and a home-made jerk chicken rub. Carib Indian/Bog Irish Fusion Cookery! It worked well, and Arpad and I have plans to improve the next version.
Sunday was spent fetching various bits of hardware from Ranelagh, gardening, and barbecuing. The hardware haul involved a new bin; a 3lb hammer for use as a ritual tool; duck tape; some broom handle which will become a practice stick for heavy fighting; a few metal hook/prop things for hanging baskets, lanterns, etc on; new shears for the garden, and some other odds and ends.
So I was comfortably tired (especially after working on the translation of a tough Finnish passage) going into last night, only to dream one of the more bizarre dreams I've had in a long time. ( Dream details ) I woke up more than a bit disoriented, and I keep on flashing back to scenes from it.

Memo to self: Send Gar the blurb for the Gaelcon Scenario. And start writing the damn thing.
It involves d20 Modern with guns, etc, a Victorian Steampunk World, and Dinosaurs. There are as yet no Pirates, Cowboys or Spaceships, but I'll keep you posted.
