We ended up going to the Renaissance Faire on Sunday. It was slightly colder than "light jacket weather," but a cup of mulled wine balanced things out!
My son ended up getting an early birthday present: They had a blacksmith there who would work with people to forge their own items. My son, for example, was given half of a horseshoe, and he and the blacksmith turned it into a knife! My son is thrilled with it.

Playing Call of Cthulhu:
INVESTIGATOR: I'm going to go to the NY Public Library to research that strange symbol we found carved into the corpse's forehead. *rolls a fumble*
ME: Ooo... not good. Instead of a volume on occultic symbols you find... the novelization of Thor: Love & Thunder. Roll a Sanity Check.

I roll a Sanity check daily after watching that. I'm not taking any chances.
Heh.
Two of the guys were new to the table and had not heard my lengthy diatribe about that movie, including a 98-slide Power Point presentation and four part harmony... the other guy knows me well and shot me a look as if to say: "Easy, chief. We don't have all night for you to terrorize the new guys."

Gah! Sorry to hear it Cal. COVID freakin sucks. Zero stars. Scathing Yelp review to follow.
Feel better soon!
If this bout of COVID treats me the way the previous two did, I'll just have a fever around the clock and headaches. Not that those are great, but hopefully nothing worse will happen.

Look, we WANTED a cool battle song. We NEEDED a cool battle song. What the Bard God gave us was Yakety Sax.

yooo!
If it is a flaming chaos on hooves, you might want to review the warranty options on your Alchemical Goat. If that happens with your Alchemicow, you definitely want to check your warranty options.

I just composed a lengthy and heartfelt Christmas wish for everyone and Google Chrome did something weird and now it's gone. You'll just have to settle for this abbreviated version now! Seriously, I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday celebrated in a manner that lets you say goodbye to 2023 on a good note and then get ready to take 2024 by the throat and give it a good shake to establish dominance.

Welp, Old Monkey Santa dropped the ball for another year...
At least he didn't literally drop a ball. Depending on size and weight, those things can do damage...

Still, it's not the worst thing he's ever done.

Today's discovery: 1987. I can't stop listening to her. Well, cycling with the Ghost Dance's Deeper Blue.
I might have a thing or two for 80s...

As someone who hit the 1980s hard, I certainly have a soft spot for songs like this. Although 1987 was hands down the worst year of my life I still hear those old songs and remember there were good times. And then I see modern artists paying homage to years before most of them were even born lol and I dig it.
Here's another fun one that salutes my feral days:
