The Dietary Habits of Grues, or Embracing the Inner Geek
It's a new semester. Spring isn't here yet; we're still in the depths of Winter, the days only just now starting to creep longer and longer as the sun comes back to the world. Not fast enough at all, in my opinion, but at least it's a trend I can embrace. Everything still in hibernation, stuck in this frozen holding pattern, but you can at least pretend that if you squint? You can see the shoots about to force their way up through the snow, questing for the light.
All this light and growth needs to stop right now, though, because for some reason I've a pounding headache while I try to get through syllabi and finding the right classrooms and all the rest. And for those who've seen my little shrine to the source of my headache? I'm leaving it up. As a warning, if nothing else; it'll remind me not to post in that sort of state. If I listen to myself, which I probably won't.
Speaking of other alternatives to a social life, since I've fucked that one up royally? Consider this my formal announcement: I'm going to start running a D&D game, if we've got enough interested people. I'd like to note that this is my first time playing, but I'm ready to jump in with both feet, so...be kind to me, if you're interested? I'm thinking of a once-a-week schedule, sometime on the weekend, with the first pass this weekend to get together, talk about what I have in mind, and get characters started. If you're interested, either drop me a note in this post or catch me and let me know?
Last but not least: Annie? I found my phone. It looks like I called you in the middle of...well, sometime after that post, but before I passed out. I don't remember at all what we talked about, but I have a feeling I need to apologize. A lot. Will understand if you don't want to talk to me again.
Looks like time is up; back to the grind of the rest of the day.
