I love my children very much. Today was spent mostly just the three of us as the Mrs has her own errands to run. And even though it was tiring, it was also quite nice. We played, we cuddled, we ate. All in all, a good time was had. Really the roughest part of the … More Golden Week Day 7
Today’s game went quite well. I had fun and I am fairly certain the players did as well. And we even managed to finish on time! huzzah. Then it was the rush home to help with the kiddos. Our 3 year old has a bit of a sickness, and feel asleep really early, before I … More Day Off
If you go with the idea that once you get paid for something you can call yourself a professional, if tomorrow goes well, I’ll be able to call myself a professional DM. That’ll be neat.

He’s asleep now and we are all hoping it will be just a little bug. If it turns out to … More Golden Week Day 3

The Twenty-Years War has ended. The last five months have seen East and West Dragonshead at a … More Dragon Tooth Oneshot Setting
Here in Japan we have reached that beloved string of holidays known as Golden Week. Due to the Imperial change over this year the total number of consecutive days off reaches nine. While I am always glad to have days off of work, I will admit it is not quite as exciting when national holidays … More Golden Week: Day 1

Today I did a little shuffling of my schedule in order to be able to watch the mid-Afternoon showing of this flick. I saw it with a friend and the moment it ended we went to one of our favorite pubs and spent about an hour and two pints apiece talking about this movie. How … More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Avengers Endgame
The synthetic man watches. If he concentrates, he is aware of the exact number of countless computations that it takes to bring his world into focus. His ears track the sound of a ball as it bounces the distance. Somewhere inside he knows it’s rate repeat and has an estimate of the average height of … More Synthetic
