Just like you, but different. Batteries not included. Not available in all states (like plasma). Potrzebie. DCC rpg.

Writer friends, is a 1000-word day a decent writing day? Asking for myself.

I may never find someone that wants to play this, but that’s okay — no one has played the PotA game I invented when I was 11 for over 4 decades now… I’m used to not playing PotA…

No booth yet… hopefully we can find it before we need it. There are 7 booth-hunters on site today, stalking the aisles, butterfly nets in hand…

Had a pleasant Father’s Day afternoon/evening of watching Andor Seasons 3 & 4.

Now we want a Mon Mothma spin-off, explaining her absence from the Battle of Yavin, featuring Vel, Kleya, and Bix in hijinks across the next six years of events…!

A year ago this evening, a couple of doctors put a wire thing up my arm and over to my heart to place a stent.

Here I am.

If you ever feel a weird bodily sensation you’ve never felt before, get some medical attention so you are here to post about it a year later…

Decided to plunge into starting a couple of the full page pieces in The Artifact (still working on the marginalia, too)…
