On several fronts, things are better. A check-up appointment with my dentist today went well, and I don't need any more work done, right now. This pleases me ( Read more... )

We were surprised this morning by the arrival of an out-of-state crew aiding Vectren with line repairs. They got the downed power line off the ground in our yard, and checked the connection of our line. That's a step in the right direction. They can't touch the cable company's lines, but at least the dangerous ones are taken care of now. I'm no ( Read more... )

The cats love their new toys. They helped themselves to the bag before I even got them unpacked.

I've been over at the boss' house, doing inventory every day up until today. Last night I had the chance to see something extraordinary. Sue's Dutchman's Pipe Cactus bloomed last night! We took pictures, so hopefully I'll be able to post them soon. ( Read more... )

After one day at home, I was back on the road, this time to GenCon in Indianapolis. In that one day at home, I had to help Tomas repack the truck (again). We didn't bring the whole trailer, thankfully ( Read more... )

Tonight my Pathfinder game continues. The party might theoretically finish the first book tonight. Maybe. If they don't all die first... MWAHAHAHA... Nah, they'll do fine ( Read more... )

We've been doing some more gaming at the house lately. I've both run and played. Mainly Living Arcanis, but my home D&D game is off to a good start as well. I need to sit down and take care of some bookwork for my characters soon; I want to have everything neat and organized before OriginsWork is moving along decently well. Some progress is being ( Read more... )

Well, HeliadaCon is officially over. The con lost money, but small cons almost always do. It was expected. Everyone seemed to have fun, which is what matters. I don't think we'll do this con specifically next year, as it may compete with the theoretical "ArcanisCon" PCI is planning in Columbus. We'll have to wait and see a bit. I really want to ( Read more... )

Lately the local gaming scene has fallen apart. My job keeps me out of town most weekends. Phil's schedule shifts around, so he can't keep a regular game going. EGG has basically disintegrated over the past year, since those of us running it have had real-world issues, and not enough of the younger members have stepped up to fill the gaps. It's ( Read more... )

Well, I've been terribly slow at posting lately, mainly due to work. But now the Boss is packed up and theoretically back on his way to Florida, so I can take an afternoon to rest and regroup. It's been a weird couple weeks on the geekdom front ( Read more... )

John & Tiffany's wedding (the second I've been asked to officiate this year), went smoothly. I'm glad it's over though. Priestess is not a role I've ever gotten really comfortable in publically. But they are happy, which makes me happy ( Read more... )
