It's his half term next week so the other half is coming up today for a long weekend. We're off on a training walk tomorrow (with added amazing pub lunch) and meeting my Dad and the dog he's dog-sitting on Monday. I also badly need the extra couple of days off work after the previous shambles of a week. Whew!

Headed up to the old college stomping grounds today. My head football coach passed away last year and today’s the memorial at the school. Get to visit with friends I haven’t seen in 15+ years.

On the other hand, the last time I went back for a reunion I ended up with a 3 day hangover....
I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

But joking aside, great stuff. Congrats. I hope it works out for you!

Congrats! I assume Macros and I are down as writing character references for you? I've already got one written at any rate...

I'll tell you a fun story. I think it started in the Grimdark fantasy group when I was a part of that (I'm not now, but can provide insight as to why if anyone cares) - someone posted "idea: fantasy characters with day jobs anthology".

I, being drunk at the time, jumped on this and hyperactively started throwing an idea around about an orc doing injury litigation. I was all over that thread.

And then Stefan set up a group for it and said "OK so are we doing this or what". Madness. One drunken thing leading to another, quite literally.
