short takes

[cellio]

Last night's D&D game was very good. We had good role-playing, we learned something more about the world that's important, and the encounters were well-balanced. The cliff-hanger we ended on, though, prompted the "ack! how can we deal with that?!" reaction, which probably means the GM has done a good job. We'll find out next time. :-)

Tomorrow is an SCA event, the Academy (a day of classes). There are some interesting classes on the schedule. We have crashers coming tonight, people we haven't seen in a while. Should be fun.

CompUSA hasn't called about my computer yet, so today I called them. They're working on it. Can they say anything more specific? No, but they'll have the tech call this afternoon. That was at 10am; I think "afternoon" has safely come and gone by now, and still no call. I hope it's ready for pickup on Sunday.

It must be rough to be a thirsty cat (or dog, probably). In watching Eric drink water earlier, I realized that cats don't have "slurp", only "lap". And the tongue just isn't that big, y'know? As someone who drinks around a gallon of water a day, often more, I cringe in sympathy.

I enjoyed the session too. However, I'm curious to know what you learned about the world, since I hadn't planned it as a particularly expository session. :)

Nothing really major -- just that the current anomolies were "made, not corrupted", so to speak (made from the earth itself, rather than an infection of previously-healthy normal creatures). More confirmation of the "the land itself is sick" theory.
