More and more events
Let's see...
Since last time, lots has happened.
We had a quiet weekend, Lisa got meds for her pneumonia (they seem to be taking hold), and we kept it kindof low key (neither of us felt particularly good). Jessica started to get sick, too -- hopefully it doesn't get worse.
Jessica is still enjoying her coop term -- she got to play with the lighting. They've got some cool computerized lighting panel. She's also got to sort color gels. :-) Brings back memories, eh, Christian?
We put some mulch down in the backyard, to try to combat the ever-growing mud problem. It works well. Hopefully it's a reasonable long-term fix. Irritating clay soil.
I got my new glasses tonight (two pairs), I'm wearing mine now. Lisa's aren't in yet -- probably over the next couple of days. They're nice: it's been a long time since new glasses, I like being able to see out of both eyes equally (actually, my prescription didn't change that much).
We got the King Kong DVD -- haven't watched it yet, but looking forward to it.
We saw the new Grey's Anatomy: I'm beginning to really really like that show. The bit with the little warren in the hospital -- that's what did it for me.
Lisa and I played a session with my new Fudge rules. I learned a few things.
First, the Fudge rules are awesome. Basically, everything I've ever wanted in a game. Easy and fun.
Second, I'm a terrible GM. :-) I probably ran the worst session in Kitchener. Only kidding -- but Fudge makes it much more important to provide interesting plots and characters, and have good GM style. In d20, you can set up a fight, and blow 10 minutes. In Fudge, it don't work that way. If you want to have a fight, it's gotta be interesting, and the rest of the content has to hold its own.
I also learned that I'm incapable of reading notes during a game. So I'm making index cards, to see if they'll work. I'll run another session soon, using lessons from the first session -- I think it will be dramatically more fun than the first one. :-)
Tomorrow I'm working from home, cuz they're installing our new furnace -- more occupation tree madness. I love them occupation trees!
Lots of good meals -- always delicious food around here!
