The default question before embarking on any new adventure. Equally applicable to here, except that I know why I'm doing it -- because two friends of mine have suggested it, and because it might possibly be good for business. So there we go.
Currently, my status is less than happy, because it looks like it's going to be a migraine weekend (haven't had one of those in years) and because I HAVE TO FINISH this assignment I've got this weekend. Throw in being desperately homesick for FASA and my life in Chicago, as well as missing the husband (who's been gone since January in basic training in an attempt to both serve his country and finish his degree) and it has all the earmarks of a bright, shining plug nickel of a weekend. Sigh. Ah well.
Not everything is bad, btw. My youngest is making strides toward mastering the use of the toilet (YAY!), I have online friends to talk to, and GenCon and the husband's return are both imminent. David will be home in two weeks or a little less now, and that will be a good thing. We all miss him, far more than I'm prepared to go into here.
I had great fun at Origins, by the way. While coming home reopened a lot of wounds I had thought healed and done with, I met a number of great people there -- none of whom seemed inclined to duck out the back of the booth when they saw me coming. :) Many people gave me much free stuff (most of it related to work I've done for them) and all was basically good. I picked up both Children of the Sun and Nobilis, along with Silver Age Sentinels, a few White Wolf books I was lacking, and a number of other nifty things I can't remember at the moment (due to dehydration and the kindness of friends, all my books are currently in Chicago, waiting for me with open arm-... er, bindings. Or something like that). Oh, and I bought David the new Master Maze traps set for his birthday, as we are both geeks, he's addicted to the stuff and it's just plain cool.
Anyway, that should be enough for starters. I'll check back soon enough. :)
