There is nothing wrong with appreciating your personal time. I think a little bit of time apart is essential, lest we all go crazy.

Managed to pick up some Abita Strawberry Harvest Lager today. Woot!

I finally got my lady to read the Watchmen graphic novel. She's been reading it today, is almost done and seems to be digging it.

Three days until I depart for Italy!

On Wednesday (yeah, this one's a little late), I played my first ever actual music gig. A local folk trio were making an appearance with a few other acts, but one of the guys backed out at the last minute, and they needed a guitar player. I practiced my ass off for a week, and was able to fill in decently for the show.

It seems to me we could all use a bit of the positive in our lives. I know I could. This is the place to list good things in or going on in your life. Despite the frustrations, there is always something good going on, isn't there?

Good things for me from today:
An hour long walk with my 3 year old Bryce and an unexpected call for an interview on Friday for a job that I really want/need.

Good things huh?

Watching my youngest play with his dump truck on the floor, my four year old asking if she can play Vampire wars at facebook, and my six year old stealing his daddy's Dragon magazines so that he can read them...he wants to play so desperatly!
Past that....cold drink at the end of a long week, a broke in pair of jeans, sandals, and a day off!


4 days until Paizocon2009. Woot!

That kicks ass, Shiny! Hope you had a blast!

Hmmm.

Bro, this is when the pussy-pile-up begins.

Good thing #2: I was having one of my nasty breakdowns last week, and it could have gotten really ugly. She was able to pull me back out of the hole.

It's good to have someone who can recognize it is happening and be able to pull you out of it. I'm fortunate that my wife can do both.

Congrats on the gig, too!

You getting your visa is the best news I've heard in a long time! I wish I were going even more now...

@Shiny: Dude, now you need to come down to Texas and play at Stubbs so Daigle and I can come see you!

;)


My copy of The Temple of Elemental Evil just showed up. That means that I now have all 3 mega-modules for the 1 edition days of TSR. Also, My copies of Dragon Magazine 35-44 should be in soon, which means that I will have Dragon Magazine 35 to 359, all 5 Best of., and all 6 annuals. Plus I also have Dungeon Magazine 1 to 150. ~grumbles~ Now I just need to bag and board them all. Oh joy.


Also, My copy of DCC # 39 - The Ruins of Castle Churo, Level Up # 1, and Points of Light came in as well today.

All I can say is that I hope that Paizo does as good a job on their DM's Screen as GoodMan Games did with the DM Screen that was in with DCC # 39 - Castle Churo.

~looks around wildly~ Ummmmmm..... ~runs, cluctching my copy of The Temple of Elemental Evil, Scourge of the Slavelords, Queen of the Spiders, and Realms of Horror close to my chest while screaming~ Mine! Mine! All mine!!! You can't have themmmmm.......


~wicked smile~ And all of them are in GREAT shape and have all the maps.

Liberty's Edge

Damn, gotta hold my fire until he drops them. Blood'll make 'em unreadable...

I miss my old 1e collection...


~thinks~ Hmmmmnnnnnnnn..... I am going to have to bag them all too. Just to make sure that they stay in great shape.

~grins~ I miss my old 1e collection too. That is why I am trying to rebuild some of it. If you ever come to Savannah, GA, then perhaps we can run you through some of them.


~grins~ I think I am on my 3rd (or is it my 4th) RPG collection. It sucks when you have to rebuild. Some of the stuff are out of my reach, like the old D & D Gazetters. I used to have them all at one time.

The sheer pleasure of watching my co-workers cubicle spaces get flooded this morning. Damn, am I glad they moved me out of that section a few years back.

I'm guessing you're not a fan of those people? ;-)

Oh no, I used to work in the same code as most of them. I love those guys. Visit them every day. It was just amusing (and distracting) to see the flooding.

I tried to convince my boss that I needed to go home because I was having traumatizing Katrina flashbacks, until he remembered that I had moved away from New Orleans before 2005.

It is very amusing to watch your friends suffer slightly! My best friend has such a bad cold that this morning she walked straight into a wall...it was hilarious!

I have the good coffee...but no cookies :(

My mom used to make the best snickerdoodles!


Mmmm, snickerdoodles. I should make some of those. Except I'm already making pear pie. Guess the cookies will have to wait. :)

Pear pie? That sounds good. I'd never even thought of putting pears in a pie.

It is possible and it is delicious. :)

I specialize in unusual fruit pies. My grape pie is probably my best, but I also make really good pear pie and plum pie too.

Lol :) Yeah, he's forbidden to sing due to being tone deaf. And overly fond of Warrant. All hair bands really. Kinda ruined that type of music for me. ;)
