I’m the proud owner of a lovely new boardgaming table. Now that I have accomplished my one and only life goal I guess I’ll just relax and game for the rest of my life.

Sometimes I forget just how beautiful Ireland can be. Taken at the Curragh Woods in Cork.

A 3D Printer was an excellent and completely reasonable purchase

I had a very pleasant time yesterday at a talk by John Garth on Tolkien and the creation of the mythology of Arda. I really appreciated the research he did to identify some of the ways Ireland impacted Tolkien and his works. Go see him if you ever get the chance!

Delicious Patriotism. #stpatricksday

Cork certainly is looking extra pretty

I just finished watching Nosferatu. It’s a wonderful piece of cinematography but the plot is a blatant rip-off of Leslie Nelson’s great work, Dracula: Dead and Loving It.

I’m just glad they had this sign. Otherwise I might have been trapped forever.

I have begun the process of recuperating after another game filled Warpcon. Running the table quiz is always an absolute pleasure and I look forward to another weekend of fun, games and beer next year. But first I need to drink tea and not move for 24 hours.

I got extraordinarily lucky with my second ever Star Wars Unlimited booster pack. The artist is very talented at drawing “smug”. #starwars #starwarsunlimited
