What a week

by weem on August 20, 2010

This last week was awesome.

My brothers came in from out of town (a few hours away) to stay with me this last Monday through Thursday and we had a blast! One of them even ran a one-off D&D game on our typical game night (Tuesday) which was a lot of fun. He has some background in theater and I think one of the great things he brings to his games is that immersion you get when you have a DM who can act out various roles really well.

His game involved us heroes heading out to a haunted island of sorts in search of the father of a boy who went missing there. It was a horror-themed game, and done very well – everyone had such a good time we played well past the time a few of my players needed to have been heading home.

We also played some old school games including Age of Empires 2 and Imperium Galactica 2 which was a lot of fun and brought back some great memories. I also introduced them to Monday Night Combat (thanks @michaelrobles for getting me hooked on that one) which was a lot of fun as well (I seem to really enjoy the ‘Gunner’).

One of the days they were here, I had to head into the office to get some things done during which time my wife took the guys out to ride ATV’s out on the (Pismo) Dunes (I didn’t feel like going so it was good timing).

Anyway, this week was a ton of fun but we stayed up very late most nights and I am very worn out now (the fact I just finished doing a bunch of yard work doesn’t help with the resting either). I have a number of things to work on outside of this site, but I do hope to get back in here tomorrow or the next day with an update or two.

Seeya then!
