Being delivered basically every rules book for the Hero system ever and then going over them and asking you questions along the way.

That just popped into my head. Dunno why.

Because it proved what an amazingly cool uncle I am?

Our first hug, in the lobby of the RedDoubleLionTree.

The first things that comes to mind is the time we did the cornfield maze at Halloween a couple of years ago.

I don't intend to repost these meme to my own LJ, but don't care if you unscreen this comment.

Heh -- meeting you for the first time in passing at BayCon a couple of weeks ago. =) (I was one of the rather dazed-looking people with Collie and Bob.)

Really? I'm sorry if you introduced yourself and got a glazed look, I was on my last legs and heading home when we all collided.

No worries! It had been a long, and from what I gather very successful, convention. =)

Only memory I have relating to you was the first time I saw a copy of your GURPS supplement sitting on a shelf at the local games store. Had to buy it, naturally.

I, and my pizza habit, thank you.

My earliest memory of you is when we were both talking about original 'Traveller' and the hell of making new characters they had. PCs that could [and would] die in character creation. That was fun. ^_^

Hanging out in Portland.

First thing I thought of was when you'd finally had enough of Jackie's "poor poor pitiful me" act that would always end in her attacking anyone who tried to help her and set her back on her heels. She needed it and I was so grateful that someone spoke up.

Strange, I know...

Your birthday - July 4, 1966. I was told I couldn't have anymore children. You were a happy surprise.

You and Kiri picking me up on my 2nd to last night in town, the big Maglite, feeling like I could sleep in the backseat of the land yacht, and listening to the Talking heads.

Perfect evening.

From your sister
