Meanwhile, back home, crisis struck. I received a phone call from my roommate at 7 am saying there was a power outage and where was the portable battery pack? OOPS I brought it with me for the trip, owned. He said the power outage had been going for 15 minutes, but his phone was at 10%. big rip. Lat...
Today was a long day on the road. After a leisurely breakfast of Chinese fries, cherries, and kropok, we set out around 9 am. Today was also a big day in Wolvden for multiple reasons. First, Black Cherry Bomb grew up and began her career as stalker for Ravenlight/Megalovania. She replaces Lucky Taro...
Google keeps sending me photo slideshows from the Croatia trip two years ago, like "Hey! Remember when you went on summer vacation? Wasn't that cool?" But it's finally time for another vacation! We're going on a hiking trip in Kentucky. My roommate was flabbergasted when I told him about it. "Do you...
Last month, numbers, Dante, HGR, and I played Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos (the tacos game). It was originally numbers' idea. "This might be cool as a new Hammerwatch-ish kinda thing to play?" he said. It turned out not to be particularly good, but we still had fun with it. HGR played ranger, but he...

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...
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 ...
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 ...
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...

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 ...
