Vacation plans: Set
Tickets to Hamburg ordered, vacation time requested (and granted). I'll be in Germany for six days during the football World Cup, the vacation as a whole will be four weeks (I think - I might take another week if I find a good reason to).

Tristram Shandy
I was going to write a full review, but I really have better things to do, plus I don't really know what to say. It's a brilliant film that I thoroughly enjoyed, go see it. -

Roleplaying? Me?
So I suddenly and unexpectedly and impulsively sent a reply to some guys looking for another player for their D&D game, and I'm meeting them tonight for a first "try out" game session.
