Well the weekend is over and this week is going to be full. I had a great time taking the kidlets to parks though. We went to a petting zoo and played frisbee and, of course, hit the slides. Good fun for all. My oldest boy (7 1/2) thinks he wants to learn dungeons & dragons... I'll admit I want him to play too, but I worry that I might burn him out early! After some digging I think he'd like Star Wars best. I've never played a SW game... but I still have the books.
My wife has a math final tonight. She'll be one class closer to finishing her BA which will then turn in to a teaching cert. So after tonight she gets a bit of a summer vacation (from class anyway!) This week kicks off with an all-girls shopping weekend in KC. My mom, an aunt, my sister-in-law, my sister and a cousin are all coming down this weekend to shop. Since the house will be mostly devoid of women folk (they're even renting a hotel), I thought I'd host a manly game weekend. Here in the mid-west we don't let our women play RPG's... it's not lady-like. Or maybe they just don't enjoy fat old guys pretending to be uber-cool heroes. Whatever the reason, there are few girls in my gaming circle. I plan on running a d20 Modern game for the guys.
So there's much to do... house work and all that. Plus game planning. I think there's about 2-3 more good weekends of work to do before the house is "settled." Then I can finish re-modelling... Sometime next year I need to re-do a bathroom. And then there's the landscaping... hmmm... Oi! too much planning.
