Spent three days offline, more or less, visiting the sort-of-SO. Sometime soon I'm going to have to post an actual deep, meaningful entry, because there is stuff on my mind, but nothing I really have time to go into now.

But it was fun. Museums and a zoo. And a crazy weird skype conference.

Gaming situation, form tonight's Serenity game:

You're scouting a forward bandit base, where you know hostages are being held. You:

a) come back later and launch an overt assault on the base with help.
b) sneak in and remove the hostages by stealth, calling in your ship for extraction once they're secured.
c) wait until most of the bandits are in the same building, then...

And now, a rambling mess that will make little to no sense.

I got those books sent off today, several days late.

I still have horrible, horrible time management.

I arranged a skype call for a guest for the podcast, and then promptly turned around and arranged to be out of town with the sort-of-kind-of-significant-other. And so, I end up making it a conference, on...

I don't know how the weekly podcasters do it. I really don't. If I had to edit down an 80 minute file to 60 minutes or so every week, I'd go insane.

Of course, some people would say I'm already there.

I'm starting to poke around and journals and such; mostly, though, it seems like I stick to the boards and groups. Not nearly enough...

I'm beginning to dislike technology just a little. I got this new computer and had to do several things to keep it working.

I had to edit the registry to restore my DVD drive. I had to try multiple times to reconfigure a wireless router that got futzed by weather. And tonight, I try to get my tuner card working and see that the guide...

Dear customer who sneered at the cereal not being marked down enough: Please feel free to send it through your gastrointestinal tract in opposite the usual direction. Thank you.

Other than that, I've survived. I have a day off tomorrow, which should involve a trip to a used bookstore to find some stuff I'm going to trade for other used books. Rather roundabout, certainly, but...

I have a new chair. It was left by the dumpster by a neighbor who was moving out. Maybe if we're all real lucky, I'll put up a picture of it. It's this nice, comfy green thing, though.

I've been playing around with taking pictures for a possible BCB set. I must remember to smile!

Good night all!

So, the visit went well. If you're ever in the area, the Frazier Historical Arms Museum is pretty cool.

Otherwise, spent the weekend lazing around, then had to break things up early as it turned out I was scheduled to work a day earlier than I thought I would be.

I did arrange, though, to be at GenCon, for those who care about that.

Bah.

The kind of sort of ex is comig to visit, so I may be absent for a bit. I'll be back by the end of the weekend, though.

I finally went in on that group I was thinking about. We shall see.

I'm not looking forward to going back to work. That's only a half a week away.

Now, to get ready for tonight's game...

Got it. "The Godsend Agenda," in all of it's Chariots-of-the-Godsish goodness. At least, I hope so. I still have to put a review together for it eventually.

Lunch at a pub near the store. They've improved over the year and a half or so since my last regular visit.

If only rain didn't threaten tomorrow... but then, I do have a package to mail out.
