The Best Holiday Ever
I brought together an estranged father and son, and may have managed to give them a way to mend the gap between them. I bought four kids books they so wanted to read, that they threw their toys aside, and went to read quietly in their rooms. I made my mom cry tears of joy. I helped make Christmas dinner for airmen, who not only could not make it home, but had to spend Christmas as work. I stayed...
I need to vent...
After midnight last night, Smashing Geek Boy and I both shared the same holiday video on ye olde book of faces, the very same one I shared here actually, as our Merry Christmas to our friends and families.
What to we wake up to, Geek Boy’s family preaching at us, because obviously sharing a song that sums up our views on the holiday, and what’s important, is offensive. Even going so...

Some Days I Feel Kinda Saintlike
My holiday gifts arrived at their destinations today. And I am suffering from a serious case of the warm and fuzzies, because I managed to, inadvertently make everyone’s day better.
The Smashing Geek Boy and I decided it would be best to send his father, and his brother’s gift together, seeing that his brother is always at his dad’s house when we’re there. Unbeknown to us,...

Hope!
So my new players seem like decent people, and a little more in line with my play style. This is good. New girl’s never created her own character, and is a little quiet, but, her boyfriend’s crazy outspoken so, we’ll give it a chance, her stories of games past make me hopeful. New guy reminds me of the people I used to play with. So, it looks like this group my actually work out....

Editions
I hate fourth edition, with a fiery passion. I have played it, admittedly under a crappy DM (I have a lot of those it seems) but it’s the rules themselves that turned me off. It felt like a set of house rules, not like a completed system. It was too simple, I don’t much like when things get dumbed down to make them accessible to everyone. I don’t like setting the bar lower, it...

Holiday Music!
Okay, so over on my Facebook page, I’ve been doing a Holiday Song-A-Day, the only real theme being, “Songs you haven’t heard 50,000 times.” So I figured I’d share November 26th -December 8th. Why? Because I’ve been sick, and game’s on break, and I feel like I need to post something.
