Friday afternoon turned out to be a little more hectic than originally intended, since I had to take Katherine in for a follow-up doctor’s appointment regarding her ear infection. All looks well.
Gaming Friday night was fun, as expected. Pre-game, Rey introduced us to “Fluxx,” an insane card game that is remarkably complex and remarkably simple at the same time. During the game, as might have been predicted, now that I had seen it nobody wanted to talk about the movie, except to bitch a little bit.
Prep Friday afternoon and early Saturday morning made for a successful episode of “The Justice Squad.” Plots, mysteries, and foreshadowing abounds — my favorite sort of stuff to GM. The evening closed with me loading Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force on my machine and phasering the snot out of some Bad Guys.
I failed to remember, while plotting out the weekend, that today is Fathers Day. I don’t know what that means, plan-wise. I suspect, though, it will involve kitchen-cleaning, since a 3L bottle of mead Margie was making for the camp-out next weekend exploded on the kitchen peninsula last night (before, mercifully, we went to bed — if it had waited a couple of hours, it would have been a real disaster when I arrived downstairs this morning).
I’ve got a good Dad. While they were out, I got him a Fathers Day gift, a DVD of Tora, Tora, Tora, which he enjoyed.
So that all explains the dearth of posts here over the last few days. That, and I still haven’t gotten the wireless networking working, so it’s either my computer online at home, or Margie’s. Maybe I’ll work on that today.
Bewing up a little mead for the naked dancing around the fire…sounds like fun!
Alas, it turned out to be brewing up a little mead for the frantic dancing around the kitchen and breakfast room before any more of it flowed onto the floor …
Wow, 3 liters of Mead for camping! Nice. Even if the weather isn’t cooperating, you won’t care!! Have fun. If you’ve never been, the Sand Dunes are really interesting.
Well, it was 3L for about 50 people, so not too riproaring of a time was in the offing. And there will be plenty of alternative lubricants, as well.
