After the Fire

Weekend went pretty well. Saw The Dark Knight. It was pretty sweet. Megan's soirée went well. Played some 40K. Notes from the trenches:

The film was nice. Only a few physics mishaps, and I'm still smiling at the irony of the Joker surviving the film and Harvey Dent dying while the men who played them did the opposite.

Megan's event was nice. I showed up and within two minutes was offered a Cherry Wheat. Good times, good times. The place is massive, too! There was some crazy confusion when getting Meagan home (kind of) but it turned out alright.

Saturday night was wargames. I'm pretty sure I'm done playing games that big. The 2000 point-per-side four-way took four hours. Four hours. Each player got a quarter of it. I'm gonna stick to smaller multiplayer games or colossal duels for the time being.

My car just keeps sounding worse. I drive without AC now because the effort of engaging the compressor almost kills the engine. If I can get this machine to last a few more winters, I'll replace it then. I'm fucking tired of having cars last one year and die.

Also, I used Man Law #4 last night, to the disapproval of many. If something is very obviously wrong, but when we ask you say nothing is wrong, I will act as though nothing is wrong. It's easier to let you deal with it than pry my way into the problem. I'll still be here when you're ready to be honest. :)

i think the big game would have been better with a larger play area. starting out within assault range of each other was a bit bad.

be lucky you didn't have my dice rolls..

Not to mention ethan spending twenty minuets to bitch about how he hates 5th edition. His turns alone take at least thirty minutes.
