Random nerd-post: I miss gaming

Getting my dice out to generate prompts for the Genficathon this weekend (... I'm such a Luddite) made me really miss RPGs. It's been over a decade since I did any gaming at all, and unfortunately my last gaming experience was a rather unpleasant one. I made the mistake of getting talked into gaming with some friends-of-friends on the local military base -- it wasn't nightmarishly bad or anything, just uncomfortable, because they were all guys and they all knew each other and I didn't fit with the group at all.

It took me awhile to even want to game again, and I'm still wary of getting involved with a gaming group that I don't know. But I do miss it. I don't know what game I'd want to play, though. My sister and I toyed around, awhile back, with making up our own set of rules for Stargate gaming, based off the Palladium system rules, but we never finished it.
