I had a really weird week. It began with a parent coming in disastified with an alternate assignment the classroom teacher had given her son.

He was cool about it and promised me that he could talk about other things besides his characters, his campaigns, his comics, or his dice. He assured me he could and I'm going to hold him to that.

Do you play, or do you let your gamer have his own dice time while you participate in other hobbies?

(sigh)...I used to play. Now my hobbies run more towards grading papers, making lesson plans, and hounding all the derby girls for their up-to-date addresses, insurance information, etc. (I'm FCDG's human resources officer).

Once in a while I'll go down to Lansing to play some Magic: the Gathering with some friends from high school.
