| I'm still here, ... |

Well, things have been going ok for the past few weeks. I still haven't found a job, nor have I even got a job interview. Hell, I applied to a call center as a phone tech, and I still didn't get a call back. The only thing I can think is happening, is that I am suppose to do something else, but I haven't figured it out yet.
But on to other news.
My parents were down for Memorial Day Weekend. It was a nice visit. They came down to see the grandchildren and install some freshly made kitchen cabinets and counters that I father made for my brother. You can tell the difference between to the two, because my father used a better wood that had a different grain then the piece-o-crap cabinets that came with the house. My father loves to work with Oak. I guess that is why when he makes something, it never really falls apart. A few of you have seen my father's handy work with making things. Other than that, my mother did a little bit of shopping.
Let's see. My daughter got a new outfit, new sandals, and spoiled with treats by my mother. She also bought me a new set of cooking pans. The set consists of a cookie sheet, a pie pan, a bread pan, a cake pan, and a pizza pan. She called it my Father's day present from Elise. My mother is wacky I know, but I love her. While we were shopping, we stopped off at Garden Ridge and I bought a lawn chair for the outside. Oh is it nice. Good news is that I still have some money on the Garden Ridge gift card that my parents bought me for christmas. So far I have bought a rug, a chair, and a pot. What else. Oh, bought my daughter a different carseat. The last one was getting kinda of old and nasty. This one never has a cup holder. Of course my mother bought it. I can never buy anything for my daughter when my mother is around. Which is fine right now, since I don't have a job.
Ok, we got that I am still jobless and my parents came down last weekend. Now on to the gaming news.
Last night's game was a good one. Rodney is using the free adventures that are WoTC website. They are pretty good. He has run about four of them and they are well written. Last night was a good dungeon crawl. There were only two mobs in the place, but ouch is the only word that I can say about it. But we were about to make it through with only almost killing the sorceress twice and me once. Neil's character seems to be doing well. Now if only I could find a person to replace Neil, but play that character. Actually Neil isn't the one that is annoying the hell out of me. Tim, the guy playing the Ranger of the group, is annoying the piss out of most of the party.
He is a 10th level Ranger, so he has a couple favored enemies. Every single thing we fight he asks, "Is this a magical beast?". Ok, that is a good question, mostly so you know if your bonuses apply. However, when you start asking if the orc or gnomes that we are fighting are magical beasts and do it over and over and over again, I am sorry, but you need your butt kicked.
Also, is a treasure hoarder. I mean I have a lot of treasure, but I am starting a trading business so that I can build a good size keep so that the party can have a base of ops and a place to retire when we stop playing these characters. Also, this last gaming session, I bought a good bow for the Druid in the party, thanks to Tek2way telling me that the Druids no longer have the weapon restrictions. Also, I was making a resurrection fund, so in case a party member was killed, I could revive them. He seems to see only his treasure count and that is all that he is worried about. It has been this way ever since I found 6k gp and didn't share it with him. Now you may think that this was wrong of me, but in the treasure I found a Longsword +2 and gave it to him. Now who do you think got shorted on that end of the deal?
Lastly, he is always complaining that he is never going to level. He has been level 10 for two whole gaming sessions now. Cry me a river right. He really got frustrated last night when the Druid got 7k in XP, and he only got 2.5k. Well the mobs were a CR9 and CR12. We got bonus XP also. The Druid is level 6 and he is level 10. Now the Druid should have gotten more than him. Tek2way tell me if I am wrong, but that is how it goes right.
Well that is about all. I need to get cleaned up if I am going to see that new HArry Porter movie. |
