Setting Up Shop

Plinky asked, “If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? Food? Clothing? Books?” Books and needlework items! My former partner and I used to dream about opening a combination book/stitching/gaming/coffee shop. Of course, independent bookstores…

Cruisin’

Plinky asks, "Would you ever take a cruise? Why or Why not? Where would you go?" Sure. I’d love to take a cruise. In fact, that seems like a lovely way to travel to/through the Caribbean or along the coast…

Good Reads Migration Finished!

That was not painless at all. The import feature is tetchy, at best. I had to go through the entire list of 1300+ books and fix their “bookshelf” assignments as well as add some that just didn’t import at all.…

My name is Cynthia, and I am a roleplaying addict

Fun Day

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,…

Gary Gygax Died

I heard a rumor about this earlier today but couldn’t find confirmation. Now, though, it’s on CNN and most of the other major news sites: Gary Gygax, Dungeons & Dragons creator, dies. The Wired article is slightly different from the…

Semester Done!

I took my project management final tonight, so I’m done with the semester! Now I’m trying to download the textbook files for next semester, but the ebook server is having issues. In the meantime, I’m listening to some lovely new…
