For those who know my family, the Beavercreek tornado last week missed Mom and Dad's house by about a mile. My gaming friend Kevin had a couple of tree's dropped in his yard. Wasn't anywhere near Rosa's house. I've been living outside of Cincinnati for over a year now so wasn't close. Was a scary morning due to not being able to reach Mom and ( Read more... )

Slowly digging my way out inch by inch, it takes three passes with the snow shovel to reach the pavement and my back don't like that at all. Today will be spent digging, baking (Cheesecake and cookies for visit in Cleveland, YUM!), and cleaning. Only reason to go ( Read more... )

Been rather quiet lately, life is proceeding as normal. Working out in gym fairly regularly now, seem to be losing weight, which is a good thing I think. I was accepted into the graduate school as a CS major, now I need to come up with a program of study that is coherent for my area of interest and my area of experience (Alas, they are not the ( Read more... )

I've been playing around with the idea of building a gaming website, mostly as a means of letting friends gather on a forum, but also as a means of creating a place where people could exchange ideas and worlds.  A place where people could have lists of house rules, gaming worlds, and similar as well as the actual forum ( Read more... )

Spent part of this past weekend at GenCon.  I had originally planned on going for all 4 days, but plans fell through so I just went all day Friday and Sat (And I do mean all day Friday, I left Dayton for Indy at 5:00 AM).  It was a fun experience, the second time I've been to a GenCon.  I noticed that I tire out during the con more though.  Didn't ( Read more... )
