Nothing much
by Denise Sawicki on March 5, 2007

Well I figured I should mention my health thingy is OK and I don't have to get any more tests for another year... :P The weeks are going by really fast, it's quite alarming.
and alcohol is fun. We had an $8 bottle of port. It was incredible. You want to drink it just for the taste and not only because it can get you drunk. :P Next Darrell had me get some Knob Creek whiskey which is considerably more expensive but it was on sale so he couldn't pass it up. Well that is 50% alcohol and I made the mistake of trying a *cautious* sip which was just nauseatingly strong, but if you knock back a big gulp you don't notice the alcohol until later and it kind of tastes like root beer. Hey my defense is I never drank in college so I am catching up now. Why do I feel defensive, I dunno. I'll only drink when I'm already happy, it's no fun drinking when you're depressed...

D&D first impressions
So our books came yesterday and I've been reading the Dungeon Master's guide as scheduled while Darrell's been reading the Player's Handbook. It's quite obvious I am going to have to read the Player's Handbook too since there is not so much actual useful information in the DM guide. It has lots of pages about different playing styles, how to handle different personalities in your group, and weird stuff like how to write cryptograms, but not so much useful data on the actual rules.

stupid water
I guess I'm just not cut out for dealing with anything the slightest bit stressful. Well, I already knew that. So we had our all-time record flood and it has dropped almost 6 feet since then but now they are saying there is going to be a second crest of the river even higher than the first sometime in April.

I didn't like Brokeback Mountain
I know I'm a number of years too late to be talking about this, but I finally happened to see Brokeback Mountain and I have to say I didn't like it terribly much. Yes, I realize this is an extremely unpopular opinion to the point of being just plain wrong as an objective fact. Note, I do not have a problem with gay people or gay behavior. Go »
The British know how to make TV
Correction to my earlier post - we have now seen almost to the end of season 2 of QAF (Darrell decided to watch it after all) and it seems only season 1 is really amazing. Perhaps it gets better again later, I don't know. Is it any coincidence that season 1 is the one copied almost directly from the British version? Go »
Sorry about that extra tall image
Sorry I screwed up the obsessions page with that tall image. But it is true, I have a new obsession. Gee... Go »
