It's Autumn, and my job loves me (though I am rather repulsed by it's clingy, cloying, sweaty, mauling love). Also, my gaming group loves me. They baught me a new D&D book for my birthday. And this after I nearly assassinated them Saturday... 
Mmmmm, Magic of Incarnum. So much new vocabulary it's annoying. Though you guys don't pay me for my nerd insight like others...

Liante wanted it, and I'm inclined to agree that an explanation is needed. What of the Mad City on All Hallows Eve?
First, it should be known, Madison is probably 50% college town, 25% government town, and 25% hippy city. While both the Government and the Hippies have their day, Halloween belongs to the eternal revelry of over one million college students.

Hehe. I appreciate the explanation. Sounds like a ton of fun.
Re: getting "friends" this way... well, you'd be full of something all right. I guess you could call it friendship. Seems like the cops wouldn't have much trouble decoding that one, though.

DUDE GUY GAVRIEL KAY IS TEH AWESOME YIIIIEE!!!
/hyperbole.
He's a pretty awesome writer though, in all seriousness. His prose has a lyrical beauty that you don't often find in fantasy, where high-magic hackdom and endless, bloated "epics" seem to be the order of the day. I can definitely see the fangirl appeal.
So do you deal with these people at work or do they just gravitate around you for some other reason?

Thing #1 I want for my birthday: http://www.behemoth3.com/community/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=15&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0 Urban Horror Vacation!
I love Behemoth 3. So much nerd love is theirs. I will give them $1.50 if they tell me they need bus fare home.
Of course, in the abscence of 6 friends near Chicago who have $200 to spend, and there will be that abscence, I will settle for gifts each of you have...

You really think Bush doesn't want to screw up the SCOTUS nominations? Man, I wish I still had that much faith. Roberts got my hopes up, but now it looks like ye olde crony-circle is back in full swing.
Running of the drunks is a new concept for me. What's the story, and how'd you get pulled in?

He who conquers the left side conquers the world, chief.

Hahaha, later, friends.

I have good news, and I have bad news. In the tradition of going Howard Hughes on everyone, bad news first.
My SG membership will likely peter out at the end of this month. My bank is all transition-y, and it's come at about the end of the month. I'll be back, but I don't know when...so if any of the kickass folks I've met...

I'm going to the Harry Potter Release party! Those children don't stand a chance...
My pet theory is that Neville is going to become a big central character ANY MINUTE now. And Harry will turn Evil (for a time, of course, not forever).
Also, I'd hope that Rowling would become far less verbose, but since she's kind of been given carte blanche and is worshipped...

I am celebrating my new friend with an update. It is always awesome making friends with hot naked folks.
So, to nerd out for a moment, I'm DMing again! I've got a little mini-campaign with a good chunk of the people shown in those Acen pics. Escaped prisoners, flying hunting dogs, betrayal, sin, redemption, escape...it's gonna be SCADS of fun.

Do you write for D&D professionally (i.e., do they ever give you money for it) or more as a hobby?
Last question for today: How's Magic of Incarnum? When I stop being broke I need to pick up some more gaming materials, although the d20 Call of Cthulhu is looking kind of tempting right now.
I'll definitely look into d20 CoC. I've been wanting to pick that up -- it's just a matter of finding it on the cheap at eBay, since I'm avoiding my FLGS until this one creepy dude stops magically showing up every time I pass through the doors (seriously, it's bizarre. I don't think he works there, so he must live in a back room or something).
Lastly: psh, no extravagant compliments. They make me blush.
