We have made it to Saturday! It's supposed to be a lovely day here in Maryland, sunny and almost 60. I have to get myself together in a few minutes so I can go get my eye exam at Lens Crafters. I'm hoping they have the retinal camera, which I prefer over having my eyes dilated. That way just lies migraines and being useless for the rest of the day. Aside from that, nothing planned for the day. Just going to kind of take it easy. I saw a tweet about it the other day, and now I kind of want to watch Big Trouble in Little China, so that might be on the list.
Tomorrow, we have a game on in the morning, and nothing else going on, so another semi relaxing day. Of course, as we all know, relaxing isn't my best activity, so we'll see how that goes.
Last night we had a fun game of Frostmaiden. It was a boss battle that had been a long time coming. The wizard who had been a pest throughout the game had ascended to lichdom, and had a city under siege. The party played it smart, but so did the baddies, and it was a hard fought battle. Finally, the paladin banished the Lich's infinitely more scary girlfriend, and they had him on the ropes. He tried to escape, but the party followed, and he went down to a well placed Power Word Kill spell from our bard. It was a good battle, and they still have to deal with the demi-god girlfriend who is going to come back and find that the party perma killed her boyfriend, but I'm sure they can be reasoned with.
This was good, because my day was boring as hell. I had a class, which has no bearing on my actual job, but is the only way I can get the user role to overbook a slot. It involved setting up reports to run, which was interesting, but also nothing I will ever need. Unfortunately, as usual, the trainer had to deal with a lot of people who were not paying attention, and needed to go over the steps 85 times, which was making me crazy. I'll be honest, I tuned out and just went through the book and did more of the exercises. It worked out fine, kept me from going insane, and I got a 100% on the test.
After that, I took calls for an hour, which was much less annoying. It wasn't a bad day, just a little dull.
Okay, I should consider putting on pants for this appointment. Everyone have an excellent Saturday!
