I really, really, really, really, REALLY hate how addictive "Run To You" is. Maybe I ought to go play some PIU today later. Hmm, it's ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
nickjong's birthday - we could drag him to D&B :)
No, so anyway, today there was Carl D&D, which went kind of annoyingly... I had a big rules debate - namely, can you make your players make saving throws when they aren't actually saving against anything? and left at the end screaming at him and walking out. Of course, after 20 minutes of pinball and thinking I realized that I suck and called him to apologize. But, the session really sucked for me. I haven't had much of an attention span lately for D&D... I dunno if it's because the groups are too big or if it's just me.
I did run into bunches of people in the UC though. Saw Roman, and ran into some PGSS people on their way to dinner.. Neil Simonetti is still doing math for them. Geez, he was one of *my* TA's, 9 years ago. Some of my students from 96-98 are various forms of TAs and reslife people, which is also sort of scary. And so on.
After all that I went to Sunday dinner. We grilled! Wheeeeeee! Also Lori's sister is in town now, which was sort of fun. Paul and Mary showed up, and I hadn't seen them since like April. Actually, I hadn't seen Ralph in a while either. It was cool to show off my ring more, and Lori lent me a bunch of wedding books. (It seems to be a theme.) The cats are huge now - not really kittens anymore. Also, turkey burgers are tastier than I thought they'd be. Ralph and Lori's one-year-old wedding cake also wasn't so bad, although I was just really really full at that point. We played a game called Gouda Gouda which involved trying to get your mice to the top of a thingy so you could get some cheese. It was a lot of dice rolling but was surprisingly complicated.
I drove home. I hate street cleaning. Hi.
