Job interview went well in my opinion!

Hope you nail it, job interviews are tough. Did they give you an ETA on a reply?

I had a relaxing graduation present weekend, watched the Chicago Symphony Orchestra play the soundtrack for Lord of the Rings RotK while it was on the big screen (truly a awesome way to see it), and walked the Chicago Botanical Gardens (very uber relaxing). Nice weekend.

That does sound good. Dang, I was just happy my Sunday was quiet. I'm aiming too low!

But enough about me. How was the orchestra?

Absolutely outstanding. The conductor had flair, and it was awesome hearing the music up live, and having it be identical to the soundtrack.

I always appreciate the fun posts and lore involved with the roleplaying posts on this site. I think I am as interested in the lore behind some of the stuff described on here as some of the players. Thanks for sharing!

Sure. What bits interest you in particular, by the way?

Oh I love reading all the miscellany np character profiles you put up all the time and all the lore bits. I tend to read through the post logs like a creeper and like seeing how things turn out and how you guys figure out weird non combat solutions to obvious fights. (The one that sticks out right now is when you convinced the one guardian to help by reinventing the Dimensions Door spell in like an hour.)

Just reading about "what could have been" right now is fun. It's all been fun. Thanks for posting it.

Coooool. Feel free to poke if you have any questions or anything. We don't bite and questions are nice.

Family night tonight. Cleaned house up, invited family over, cooked dinner, spent time with them, and played a board game with my mom (family is typically not board gamers though mom humors me occassionally). We played Takenoko for a while, amusingly ended in a tie. I chose not to look up the tie-breaker rules and just enjoy the moment.

Sometimes spending time with family is enough of an appreciation.
<Cidward> God willing, we'll all meet in Buttquest 2: The Quest for More Butts.

I went on a road trip over the weekend with friends, saw family, walked around Seattle, went to a ren faire. Good times were had. ^_^

Such is truth :)

Twas wet. Kind of a light drizzle the entire time I was there. You can spot the tourists by their umbrellas. Everyone else just ignores it.

They have crazy streets. It's not a fun place to drive, but walking around is alright, so long as you have someone who knows where they're going. It can be easy to get lost.

I saw Pike's Market and walked around the piers, took a few photos, ate at a Japanese restaurant. Was a pleasant couple of days for the most part, so long as you don't mind the rain. I was outvoted when I suggested going to the space needle, sadly.

Slept like a rock for 9+ hours and feel great now. I didn't realize how drained I was until I crashed out.

Those types of sleeps are the best.
I'm going to need your signature for the metric ton of whoop-ass you're about to receive.
