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.<\/p>\n

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<\/a>, except to bitch a little bit.<\/p>\n

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<\/i> on my machine and phasering the snot out of some Bad Guys.<\/p>\n

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).<\/p>\n

I’ve got a good Dad. While they were out, I got him a Fathers Day gift, a DVD of Tora, Tora, Tora<\/i><\/a>, which he enjoyed.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
