So, yeah. No car accident, no heart attack, no brain aneurysm. Health is fine (other than I work up with a stiff neck today and right ankle's bothering me and yadda-yadda-yadda...). Just BUSY, folks. Real busy. Volleyball practices and playoffs. Kids birthday parties. In-laws in town. Track and field. Soccer tryouts and games. School auctions. Other things. Family stuff, you know?
Gaming even. Spencer was in town for a couple weeks (back from Japan) and, of course, he wanted to play some D&D. So I ran a little something I whipped up for Cauldron ('26)...a four hour fright fest, cavern -crawl with some beefy-ass threats and treasure. Went very, very well. TPK in the end (six PCs down), but everything went off pretty much smooth as silk...threats need to be upped a tad, in fact, because I think an eight-PC party might have cake-walked it. This is why we playtest.
Anyway.
I was still planning on coming back to the A to Z series because, well, I had the whole thing planned out and there's still good stuff to say on the subject. But it's not going to get done in April, unfortunately (bruh). Maybe May...but then we have MORE things going on (guitar and piano recitals, school concerts, sports travel, etc.). Truth is, my schedule is booked solid till (roughly) mid-July. It's kind of nuts.
Still. Even with all this going on...
Okay, no. Stop. No promises (yet). I'll provide info as it's ready to come out not ephemeral "maybes." For now, at least you all know I'm alive and Just Fine. Thank you to all the folks who emailed me checking up...your concern is truly touching.
That's enough (I'm writing this while my kid is getting his hair cut). Time to go...more later.
Glad you are living life.
ReplyDeleteFunny. My kid got his haircut today too. It's good (and healthy) to be busy with things other than D&D sometimes. It ebbs and flows.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't wanted to annoy you with comments on your last post about whether you were dead in a ditch, but the thought had crossed my mind. Glad to hear you're still kicking!
ReplyDeleteF.w.i.w. I'm glad too!
Delete; )
Glad you're doing good JB. Will continue to wait for next alphabet post...
ReplyDeleteYeah, glad to hear something. I was starting to worry a little. Only a little. Of course, that reminds me that I should probably nudge my own blog too.
ReplyDeleteWell you DO set a precedent with your most excellent blog posts. I expect that I am not the only one who starts my day by visiting to view your latest post so when there isn't one I (we) get worried. Glad to hear you're just really busy and it's not something bad.
ReplyDeleteHa! Thank you for the kind words. I'll do my best to get a post or two out this next week.
