New Years Eve

Wild party time. Count down to midnight.

9pm - So far we have played Caveman, PacMan, and Dig Dug. And we ate pie.

11pm - We played Klax, watched Monty Python and drank champagne.

1am - Watched MST3000 & watched the ball drop. Put the Z girl to bed. Now time for sleep.

What I have been doing this week.

It took a lot longer to recover from the concussion than I thought it would. I really didn't start thinking clearly until at least Wed or Thur. I also had to rest a lot, and got frequent sudden headaches that felt like an ice pick through the ear. This is a shame, because there were plenty of gaming opportunities. I also don't remember much of the week. I am not sure if that is because of the concussion or a side effect from the narcotics (a.k.a. the silver lining to smacking your head on the concrete).

Dan came up from NY on Friday the 21 and stayed for about four days. Francie came over a couple of times to play. Sat the 22nd was the game club's monthly meeting. Yesterday one of the game club guys got a place nearby for another day of gaming. So I know that I played a bunch of games. I also know that I passed on a bunch of games to lie down in the dark until the flashing lights stopped. However, I don't remember much of what we played.

What I do remember is that Last Night on Earth made us laugh all week. I think we played about three times, and the Zombies won every time. Z won Red Dragon Inn and wants to play again. Dan gave me Curse of the Dark Pharaoh, and we played an awesome game of Arkham Horror with just the base game and the one expansion. Dan brought up Goldland and Francie finally played. She really liked it. I knew she would. She is such a Kramer whore.

Aside from playing games, and ordering delivery all week, I have also been working on the F:AT website. I think it is nearly done. It's nothing fancy, but it is a step up from blogger. Blogger basically sucks. I'm thinking of eventually moving to wordpress myself.

Anyway, that's it. My head is starting to hurt again. Hope every one (all three of you that occasionally read this) had a happy holiday and have a happy new year.

Guess what I got today!

I got a concussion. Slipped on the ice and knocked myself cold. Yay me. My head hurts like I'm playing Torres. Al says I have to get ugly boots that actually have some thing called traction.

Boo! Ugly boots!

Yay Zombies.

Just spoke to Al on the phone. There is a box from the game store sitting on our front porch. Yes, Last Night on Earth has finally arrived. Just another half hour of stupid work, then the commute home, then dinner...do we really have to eat dinner? Can we just skip it and go straight to the Zombies. No. That would be wrong. Plus Al & Z get wicked cranky when they are hungry. So dinner, and then the family thing, and getting Z to bed, and then, finally ZOMBIES.

My Mistake

So I made the mistake of replying to a couple of threads in the general forum on BGG. I've decided that far too many of the Geeks are social retards who believe that conversation is a competitive game. I'm going back to confining myself to the parent's forum. At least the parent's have enough social skills to attract a member of the opposite sex willing to breed with them.
