February is Con Month

…for me at least. The last Con I attended was Gen Con. This upcoming weekend is Winter War, a con I could walk to if the weather weren’t miserable. I’m hoping to play in Jeff’s Encounter Critical game if it doesn’t fill up. Otherwise, I don’t have any plans for it yet, which isn’t the smartest way to handle a...

Update from Fort Freedom

My grant has been submitted. My life can now return to normalcy. …or some semblance thereof. This weekend was a weekend of rest. Friday was a snow day, so it was a much-needed three-day weekend. I didn’t leave the house until yesterday. I spent most of Friday fighting with my DVD drive. It died. I tried two others we had...

Happy New Year

I was woken this morning by a car alarm going off. Repeatedly. I think it started around 8am. Last I heard it was not too long ago. This is not fun. The thought of taking a sledgehammer outside was tempting, even given the warmth of bed. I feel for those of my neighbors with champagne-induced hangovers. I don’t generally do...

Do I have anything to say…?

I’m really wiped out from work right now. This is the busiest I’ve been in about two years, and there is all kinds of backstabbing political crap going on right now… and it looks like I’m backstabee numero uno. Joy. So, anyway, I’m sorry that I haven’t been updating very much of late. I’ve been preoccupied. That said, I had...

Brief respite

I have a bit of a breather at work. This is necessary for my sanity after working all weekend and into the wee hours last night. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to give much thought to gaming things of late. I did order a few things from Paizo’s Green Ronin sale (which ends tomorrow) – lots of books are $2....

Ick

I probably should have just stayed home sick today, but I came into work this afternoon to prep for a couple meetings tomorrow. The request for proposals for a big mega-grant that I’m working on was just published yesterday. The applications are due February 1, which means I will be crazy-busy until then. This probably won’t detract from my blogging,...

Busy

Work just entered high-gear. This will likely have an effect on my posting habits, but I have no idea if it means I will be posting less often or more often. In other news, I went to a Halloween party this past weekend and had, probably, the best costume there. Pictures will appear soon. Ummm… gaming. Yeah. Last night was...

Weekend coolness

This weekend, I headed up to Wisconsin with Angela. I’d never been to the land of cheese and random weirdness before. I like cheese. While there, we visited several things that could serve as gaming-inspiration: Dr. Evermor’s Art ParkHome of the Forevertron. This place is a steampunk dreamland: (that stuff is about 50′ tall) Also, there are bird-things:…and small-creapy-cool-things:…and all...

WoAdWriMo: Day Twenty-five

This has been a hell of a month. I had this big conference that I was planning for this past Saturday – and doing largely by myself since my coworker was out on sick leave after being diagnosed with stomach cancer. Friday night, my coworker died during a relatively minor surgical procedure. So, yeah. I’m a mess. WoAdWriMo was going...
