What’s Happening to My Hobby?

Change is what’s happening to my hobby – the tabletop roleplaying game, and more specifically, Dungeons & Dragons. Now, I guess, the question is whether this most recent and pending change is a good one. I have spent some time watching YouTube videos and reading a few articles about what Wizards of the Coast (WotC) …

Time for a New Calendar – 2023 Begins

I have seen quite a few memes, posts, etc. about getting out of 2022 as if it was a horrible year. I saw much anger and contempt for living in 2022. Was this past year that bad? If so, how was it worse than the previous two with all the craziness of politics and a …

On The Brain…

It’s been a bit. I’ve just been busy. The last month of the year is always busy for my family and me. But here I am making a post again… finally. First… Happy holidays. I’m hoping for y’all that the holiday season has been treating you well. I suppose Christmas treated me okay… but not …

Milestone and Kind of a Rough Week :-/

So, I hit 200 followers on this here bloggy thingy. I guess that’s a bit of an achievement. It is for me, anyway. Thank you. It is extremely rewarding to know that there are people out there interested in what I write. Thank you very much. I am a realist, though. I understand that I …

Took a Little Trip

I took what I realize now, was a much-needed vacation. My best friend of around 35 years and his wife invited my wife and me to go to Cartagena, Colombia and stay at an all-inclusive resort on the beach. We decided to do this as a celebration of 3 out of 4 of us turning …

Cartagena and Isla Baru

More to come. I'll be home soon.

Being Good at Mediocrity is Okay

I apologize in advance for the rambling that might take place in the keyboard bashing that is about to take place. But hey… I’m mediocre as a wordsmith… In my life on this ball of mud and rock, I have come to the realization that being mediocre is NOT a bad thing. While I don’t …

Just on Cruise Control…

Since my last post, I guess there has not been a ton of things happening… I have been busy at work. It’s hard to believe I have been with TI for a little over 6 months now. I am finally getting a bit more settled in. Finding my way in this position has been a …

It’s Been a Minute…

I realized just a little bit ago that I have not made a post in a couple of weeks… or a little more… Sorry about that. I have been doing other stuff. With fall starting to take hold, I have been outside a bit more. My wife and I took down the garden this past …

Story Time, Just a Scene of Someone Living on Auduun

As I sit here tonight, by mind is a jumble of… crap. I have been trying to work on my D&D campaign, Wasteland. I’ve done a little, but my mind doesn’t want to focus on that. I’ve watched a couple of YouTube videos as a distraction and a bit of entertaining “input”. I hoped that …
