Winter in Wyoming is a thing of reality. That, combined with my wife being sick (and then, about a week later, me being sick) meant that the last couple weeks didn’t see me making it down to the game shop all that often. However, my 40k collection finally reached the critical mass (of assembled figures, really; […]
That’s a thing now, I guess? Kind of like the A-Z blog challenge that largely launched this blog in its current iteration (as opposed to the indie-music musings of a new grad student, which occupied the first chunk of posts), the hot business at the moment is acknowledging DnD’s 40th anniversary with a series of […]
I wouldn’t lean so heavily on the puns if I wasn’t writing most of these posts right before bed, when I’m riding the line between “flush with hobbytime fun” and “beginning the process of shutting down higher functions to sleep.” I’m usually most stressed right before I go to bed, because as great as bed […]
Priming is my new favorite thing. I didn’t really understand what it entailed, before; largely this is due to not having touched a can of spray paint. Now that I’ve primed, after my…no, I won’t make that joke. Suffice to say that the instructions I received were helpful and I was able to wield spraypaint […]
That’s it! It’s done! I’m up because I’m not quite tired enough to pass out, but with my wife back in the place and class starting in a handful of hours I think it’s accurate to declare my What-to-Do-With-Myself weekend officially complete! So how’d I do? Well, I’m pretty happy with where I am. Painting largely […]
When my wife is out of town, I enter a sort of semi-functional, grublike state. It’s a little bit the fact that she’s my primary impetus for engaging in any sort of social activity, and a little bit a sort of stasis-chamber reaction to her being gone. Time tends to get a little muddy as […]
Warhammer, y’all. Potentially the most serious of leisures that doesn’t involve firearms or eluding some sort of government authority, and I’m pretty well ensconced in the business. I actually started picking up the figures last year, in preparation for the arrival of my Reaper Minis Kickstarter. My beautiful bride was kind enough to encourage me […]
Note: This isn’t a post about EA’s Origin. I could probably write one eventually, though honestly EA’s handling that fine on its own. I’m watching a lot of cartoons lately. I watch a fair quantity of cartoon in general–One Piece is always there to give me a new dose of pirate crazy, and I’ve got […]
Logged into GW2 after I was awakened from a nice slumber by an utterly horrifying dream wherein I had been sleeping in the same bed (but foot-to-head) with a possessed Linda Blair. We’d been playing footsie, and I was trying to exorcise her despite A) not being a Christian and B) knowing that the sheets […]
