goood morning FaWtL,
today I will shovel 1 metric ton of gravel into the cellar, as subfloor for the new floor.
neyt step a relative will fill in th floor screen and then will lay special tiles into the wet screen. it is an oldfashioned way to do it but will lessen the time we can't use the cellar.
the tiles are called "Spaltklinker" in German, neither dict.cc nor wiki could translate that into English

The drive in yesterday was......mixed. We hit traffic around Baton Rouge. That sucked. And delayed us around 40 minutes. Then, as we got about two miles from our final exit off the interstate, more traffic. And that was the point when the baby started crying like crazy. She kept that up until after we got to the in-laws.

My father-in-law is going to a gun show. I'm tempted to go with him. I've been toying with getting a new hand gun. What I'm look at is either the Judge (by Taurus) or the Governor (by Smith and Wesson). They are revolvers which take both 45 Colt and .410 Shotgun shells.
The next best thing to an 88 Magnum.

Wish I could go get another sword. Wish I was back in practice. Still, I can do more about the latter than the former.

As far as handguns go i like a sig sauer 9mm, and I love my mossberg shotgun especially if I ever find these rounds for now i just amuse myself by blowing away gallon milk jugs full of red jello.
edit: Go 4 min 20 sec into the vid to get straight to the point

So, if I were English, I'd apparently be 73% Northern.
Anyone know if that's good?
I'm on the tiny, tiny little island at the very bottom.

Parents got home late last night with the new dog. I say dog not puppy as he's a lot bigger than I thought he'd be.
Mom proceeded to spend the rest of the night trying to teach him to respect her as alpha and to stop trying to bully the other dogs. This included at least three incidents of him doing something to get out of line (at least once was a near-miss bite), and her wrestling him to the ground and holding him down until he calmed a bit.
We still had to chain him outside for the night because we couldn't trust him to not pick a fight if we let him sleep indoors. (Worry not - he's a lab/boxer mix, the high-40s/low-50s weather we had last night was perfectly comfortable for him.)
He's a big ol' sweetie with people though.

Some general frame for vampirist class was laid down. 3/4 BAB, d8 HD, good Fortitude and Will save (I am unsuare about that - it is possible that I change that one to Fort and Reflex, though), 4+Int modifier skill points. Primary ability is a vampiric touch-like supernatural attack scaling with level that converts stolen hp into lifeforce - a pool of temporary hit points (with a maximum reserve equal to 2 x level x Int/Wis/Cha bonus) that will be used to power abilities selected at even levels.

Good grief.
Yes. The cat I had when I lived in Phoenix was this way.
He was also extremely aggressive. He tore Ebon's husband/my brother up pretty bad once. None of the dogs we've ever owned has been aggressive that way toward humans, even if they are to other dogs.

Ah the first few days with a puppy, We cage trained our german shepherd i.e. she slept in a cage at night. She is really smart, it took her one week before she knew to let us know when it is time to go outside.
