The Weekend Update
Friday: We slept in as there was a D&D game at 6pm in Duluth. It was pretty fun. All of us from Athens carpooled to Duluth. Of course, Richard and I were running late because he had to stop 12 times. I love him, but he's such a damn woman sometimes. ;) The ride up was filled in strategy talk and small talk. I was proud of myself because I suck at small talk, not to mention I don't really like it. The game itself was pretty eventful. We're doing a pirate like campaign, so our group is all on a boat sailing off to some mission. So we would make random rolls to see if anything interesting happened on those days. It seemed like every time I made a roll, we got attacked. Which made it interesting but it put me in the spotlight. Our group did relatively well I think, no one died or got seriously injured. Everyone seemed really fidgety, or maybe that was just me. My DM finally got back to me about my background too and said he was impressed. He also said he felt I was a great addition to the game and he really liked how I get into it and contribute. So that made me happy. :)
Saturday: Since we didn't get home until like 2 or 3am, we slept for a /long/ time. Then we woke up and cooked and hung out. I worked on my webpage for the business a lot. It's coming along well and there shouldn't be much longer until I have it up. It's taking much longer than I originally though, but Richard tells me that's because I'm much too ambitious and don't set realistic goals for myself. Go figure. :P I also found out I was accepted to GSC, which is great, but I have to take a math placement exam. On top of that, the campus closest to me is probably not going to have available space. Apparently those of us who have to take exams, can't register until after the exam, but everyone else gets to go ahead. So we're basically SOL. How that is fair, I don't know, but I guess that's how it works.
Sunday: Another lazy day. I did meet a new girl online through LJ and set up a dinner date with her and her finance for Thursday. I was excited by this and hoped we get along. I also asked another local LJ friend if she wanted to get together. However, I got sad news that the couple Richard and I meet at our D&D game (different than the Duluth one) broke up. :/ The woman was trying to bow out because it was a strained situation (obviously). I told her even if she doesn't play anymore, I would still like to hang out with her. She's really nice and I feel a good connection with her. So hopefully that'll pan out.
