  • We’ve Got Rain, If Not Game

    It’s one of those all day rains where it rains hard, then soft, then hard, then soft, then over cast but no rain, then hard, et cetera.  It should make returning from church tonight interesting, to say the least.  My headlight is on the fritz, people in Phoenix drive poorly on rainy streets, and Moon Valley is not the most well lit of neighborhoods.  I certainly don’t want to have to wait for a bus home if the headlight goes out.

    It seems as if half of Xanga is sick these days. I wish them all well.  Monday the county reported a 1000% increase in pollen count between Sunday and Monday readings.  So that would explain the increase sicknesses and severe allergy attacks locally.  Its one of the drawbacks to a rainy season.  High fire dangers in the summer is the other major drawback.  But I’d rather have these problems then another year worsening our drought.

    No Friday D&D recap, as I missed the session to attend jinnetics surprise birthday party at Chuy’s Metro Marketplace.  Thanks to the folks there who let us hide a Baskin-Robbins ice cream cake in their beer cooler while we ate.  I miss hanging out with tha group of pals.

    I heard that nothing really happened other than the kids all snuck out of the castle and saw an approaching army headed towards them.  I guess it was another night where everyone gathered late and left early.  I think the group is too big, and its about to fall apart.  I just hope it manages to do so without hurt feelings.  We’ll see.

    Saturday we didn’t even have Earthdawn.  Kitty had some jobs to do in Flagstaff, Rusty had a RenFest party to attend, and everyone else decided not to play without them.  So it was another Mike, Mike, and Paul Shadowfist night.  We’ll see what happens to this group after the RenFest is over.  It’ll either come back together or fully fall apart.  It’s coming to a critical mass where it can’t last like this much longer, even here in disfunctional America.

    Well, it’s time for me to head to mass followed by Saint Paul’s Cafe.  It’s Filipino food tonight.  I wonder how the LunarLumiere‘s family is doing these days.  I need to get back in touch with her one of these days.  Her parents made the best Filipino food.
