sixth grade art

I learned two things in sixth grade art. (This seems like an anomaly. Does anyone learn anything in sixth grade art, let alone two things?) First, the eyes are roughly midway up the head. The biggest mistake that amateur portrait artists make is putting the eyes too high, which makes the whole draw...

waterworld

We got an email over the weekend saying there would be a water outage from 9 to 4 on Wednesday because they were replacing the building's boiler. big ugh. But this time I remembered to prep. Shortly after midnight, I washed all the dishes, then set aside water: a glass of drinking water, half a mug ...

I shall be the new dragonsong

It's Kan's birthday. Happy birthday, Kan! We hoped to give him the gift of a Shiva clear, but it didn't quite happen. On our best run we got most of the way through Wyrm's Lament 2 before I messed up third red (I was running all over the dragonhead and it didn't register. newbie later explained you ...

the light of ascalon

newbie is always either talking about ordering food from Doordash, or he's pausing the current activity to pick up and eat his Doordash order. Today he outdid himself by ordering Doordash food in the middle of raid. Then when he got it, he complained that he'd have to wait until the end of the curre...

"I require additional life crowns"

My roommate was experiencing chest pain on Monday. Long story short, we went to an urgent care center, where the doctor recommended that he go straight to the emergency room, so we did that. We were there from 7:30 pm to 2:30 am. (He's vision impaired and needs help navigating unfamiliar places, so ...

pfizer two (& taco night)

It's a local tradition to have a freak snowfall in April. This year's snowfall came yesterday, but it was very halfhearted. I went out around 1 pm to find light flurries in the air, but no accumulation; everything was melting instantly. Winter is slacking. The timing was unfortunate, because today i...

reading slump

I've been in a reading slump for most of the year and I'm trying to sort out why. My general feeling is that it's fine to cycle hobbies. If I'm preoccupied with something else that I enjoy, that's cool, my books will still be waiting for me when I return. But if I'm not particularly doing anything e...

fourpack of fun: shining armor

We took a break from Shiva for a couple weeks in March. One week, Dante was out of town, so we did Halicarnassus (Omega 3 Savage) with Tiro. The main notable thing about Halicarnassus is that she sometimes meanders around the screen, heedless of the main tank. Kan got SO MAD. This is the guy who is ...
