Hump Day For You, Date Night For Us

It’s amaz­ing how much a mid-​​week date can cheer you up! I do rec­om­mend reg­u­larly sched­uled dates to any­one who has a sig­nif­i­cant other or oth­ers. Espe­cially if you have kids!

The girl went out, as usual. She sur­prised us by com­ing home early. Not a prob­lem, just unex­pected. She’s got­ten into the habit of knock­ing on the front door and wait­ing for a response before she walks in, to avoid see­ing any­thing she might not want to see ;-) Smart girl!

Date Night Happiness

My sweetie had to run a bunch of errands before he got home last night, which short­ened our date a bit. Gro­ceries were need­ful, though. We had some deli­cious deli-​​style sand­wiches after he got home, so there wasn’t a kitchen mess to deal with, too.

I think we watched an episode of West Wing while eat­ing. We’re on the fifth sea­son, after Aaron Sorkin left the show, and it just doesn’t com­pare to the pre­vi­ous sea­sons at all. I haven’t even both­ered to watch all of them, although Sam has. He catches me up on any impor­tant plot details I’ve missed between episodes.

The girl went out for her reg­u­lar Wednes­day night fun, which was also nice. It’s eas­ier to have “date night” at home when we know she’s also hav­ing fun.

Much of our game was taken up with polit­i­cal stuff, and a nice sur­prise of 32 new proto-​​demons that my character’s min­ions were able to shape into full demons of need­ful types. She has many min­ions, which is mar­velous. Oh, have I men­tioned that she’s the Demon Queen now? Inter­est­ing side­line for a high priest­ess of a good deity.

I would really, really hate to have to do a char­ac­ter sheet for Seau­claire any more. She’d be so multi-​​classed that it makes my head hurt just to think about it. It’s nice not to deal with such things any more.

I Will Try Not to Bore You

But tonight’s game was really, really good, and even though we ret­conned some­thing and most GMs wouldn’t be as accom­mo­dat­ing as Sam, he man­aged to make a new thing damn near as dif­fi­cult (or more so than) the old thing, and how is it that he has so much story in there?

Oh! He also brought home cal­zones, and baked cook­ies! I’m so lucky!

Thing-​​a-​​Day 2

My cre­ative time today was spent web­mistress­ing. I tweaked some Word­Press tem­plates to work bet­ter, and moved more stuff over from my old site for­mat to Word­Press. It may not seem like much, but I always rewrite and update as I do that, so I fig­ure it counts.

Sam and I had lots of fun in our game tonight. It’s a lit­tle weird to real­ize that some­one is an avatar of a deity and that not only does he not know it, he’s nowhere near ready to real­ize it. Then there’s the whole issue of not let­ting that lit­tle fact slip at all, because an entire race of peo­ple is wait­ing for his return (and they really, really need him now, of course).

I really should go to the library tomor­row, but I don’t know if Sam will have time to drive me there. I have books to return and books on hold to pick up. I’d best go to bed now, to improve my chances of wak­ing early enough to ask him.

I need to give Kioshi some extra scritchies, though, and I’m think­ing about Jen and her fam­ily, who had to let go of their newest feline fam­ily mem­ber today — he had feline leukemia. I always think of our Andre and Tom-​​Tom when­ever feleuk comes up. I’m glad Kioshi didn’t catch it from his par­ents, as our babies and theirs prob­a­bly did. Please, vac­ci­nate all of your pets! Even if you don’t ever plan for them to go outside!
