This title should be cleverer.
Got my first paycheck from work last friday. That felt really good. Bought some Mocha Porter from Rogue Brewery to celebrate. Good stuff.
Saturday I went out looking to buy the PHB2. I started at Borders downtown. They.. didn't have it. They didn't actually have much of anything, it was rather pathetic. I tried Barnes and Nobles next, but no joy there. I figure they either sold out of their initial shipment (in which case they fail for not having enough) or they just didn't have them yet (in which case they fail for not having them ahead of time). So that kinda sucked. I consoled myself with a smoothie from Emerald City Smoothie and ordered it on Amazon, along with a DM Screen and Dungeon Delves.
Had an all-day meeting at work today, with all the developers and such. Granted, that was really only seven of us. Planned out the stuff that was currently on the plate, future projects, etc. So far I'm really enjoying the job, and like where it looks to be going. So life is generally good on that front.
On the way home, I stopped by borders and picked up the Watchmen novel, as well as Neuromancer, and a couple of WotC's "Dungeon Tile" products. Arcane Corridors and Caverns of Carnage, to be sure. Having taken a closer look, they're actually pretty neat. I'll see what kind of usage and utility I actually get from them fairly soon. If they work well, I might buy more.
I started reading Watchmen tonight, as well. I've honestly never read it before, I figured I should before seeing the movie. Well, I figured I should, in general.
I finished watching Voyager sunday night. The final episode was surprisingly not terrible. I have some more thoughts on the series, but I think I'll put those in another post. Probably along with my thoughts on the BSG finale. The short version, sans spoilers: I thought the finale was good, a solid way to bring the series to a close. It answered some of the questions, leaving a few somewhat nebulous. I enjoyed it. I think I might start watching DS9.
Supposedly, my mother is coming to visit this weekend. I should call her, or something. Probably also clean.
