The house is a mess, but there will be gaming. You bet your sweet bippy there will be gaming.

What we shall play will be determined by who comes round and what we want to play.

* Work vs Faeries: I now work monday nights, and thus am taking a few months off from faerie potluck. This sucks but can't be helped. Honestly, I think it will help me get over the burnout I've been experiencing with faeries. It's just hard to be on for so long ( Read more... )
