Had a great time playing a fishing boardgame with my kids and nephew on the weekend, until he pulled the ocean's plug and we all had to scramble for fish.

It arrived!! Miss 12 and I played through the prologue this evening, and she picked all the connect and care and heart symbol cards, as I predicted! She said it was interesting and she loved the art, so hopefully when we continue from Lone Tree Station she stays hooked!

Well there is some. I wondered why it directs us to the French one and not the Russian. Also, it is almost phrased like there is a choice of context, but it never says the French is an example. Then it offers the American one instead. And the "skills" are all just questions about the French.

Taken from a teacher friend. The money is there, the government is choosing to use it for roads, landlords, tobacco companies, etc.
There is money. What there aren't any of is teachers. And nurses. And fire fighters.

Had a great time playing #SorceryTCG today! Got the Abundance down. Next turn played a Sylvan Splendor, Lugbog Cat, and 2 Pit Vipers, and everything kept rolling from there! The moments when it all comes together!!

Got a chance to play "Dinosaur Tea Party" finally. Turns out my method of picking a character in particular and asking all their features, or just guessing a name with no evidence, results in winning 3 out of 4 rounds against three other people. They were not happy with me.

Lots of awesome scary monsters and demons and undead cards spoiled for Sorcery's upcoming Gothic set. I have to say though, the glimpses of the non-evil stuff look stunning too. Love the art in this game.

Can you name a film that was adapted not from a novel, but from a short story?
I think movies from short stories are better than ones novels, generally.
And "Arrival", from "The Story Of Your Life" by Ted Chiang. The movie is amazing, but the story's better.

Any TCG and tabletop cardgame fans in Auckland?
There's going to be a Cornerstone event for SorceryTCG in West Auckland this Saturday. I really love this game, and it'd be a good day to come check it out!
(Even if you don't take part in the event, there'll be people who can show you how it works.)
