I was napping and kinda chilly, so I got a blanket, covered up, and went back to sleep, but then I was cold again so I woke up and realized I didn't have a blanket and I had dreamed I got the blanket and went back to sleep in my dream. Now I'm not sure what reality means anymore.

Started Death Test in Tabletop Simulator. It's hard!

Started Death Test in Tabletop Simulator. It's hard! Second room a bear killed my party's wolf pet and severely wounded Nigel. Nigel hasn't managed to hit anything yet. Nisha the elf has done almost all the damage, with Mortigue blowing up some spiders in the first room and killing a bear with a lucky shot from his staff.

I'm starting a fight of FB with one of Mrs. G's uncles. A white redneck who never had a dime that didn't slip through his fingers, who uses Medicare, who was on food stamps, and is a huge racist asshole. And of course, huge Trumper. Should be fun.

Killing time before heading to a swim meet way on the North side of the city, so I stop in the local FLGS. Nice store. Had the $10 three pack of Chaos Marines I've been looking for so A+. Also had this display of X-Wing and it's expansions and accessories and I'm glad I'm working on Snubfighter again. Look at all this shit! I had to use the wide angle setting on my camera.

Shooting from the turret of a twisting and turning ship has to be hard, right?

Shooting from the turret of a twisting and turning ship has to be hard, right? I’m thinking about how to make it different than plain-old straight-ahead gunnery in Snubfighter. It has to be simple.

Liz was so great.

Liz was so great. She just laughed and smiled the whole time, having fun. She wore a T-shirt for Uff Da Records, a small-town music shop in St. Cloud, that someone gave her at a meet-and-greet. Played a new song, "It's about the end of a relationship...so what's new?" She still looks 25, not 51.

Well, I just destroyed Coop emotionally when he was so excited to finally get to the Battle of Five Armies, but then Thorin and Fili and Kili end up dead. Total bawling meltdown and here I am trying to explain to a seven-year old that bad things happen in war and JRR Tolkein was a soldier and saw lots of people die, mostly young people, and I don't think that helped.

Got my Snubfighter tokens from Print & Play Games. They look pretty good! Of course I forgot to add one action token to the sheet of small square ones...oh well. I've also already decided to instead make the shield tokens 1" hexes so they can go under clear Litko bases. Graphics of course from game-icons.net .

Coop is writing a story in his latest Minecraft world. Contaveeies (pronounced Contavious) is his first really "D&D Character" name that he's come up with. There was a warrior named Contaveeies in his castle of Doom that used his Block of Pigginess to destroy the town of Nareea.
