I hurt.

I hurt all over, inside and out.

I have had my eyes opened to a lot of things, both about myself as a gamer, people in general, and the folks at Wizards of the Coast and the RPGA.  I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly...

I really don't know what I am going to do when I get ( Read more... )

I are very tired.

Today was a nightmare, pure and simple, though I can't say it was without its redeeming qualities.  I did get to meet a couple of famous people, both of whom sat in on my games for a little while.  Jake Lloyd (young Anakin) and Seth Green (Oz from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) were both at my table for a short time.  It was really ( Read more... )
