It's hump day! Halfway through the week! It's been a mostly quiet week so far, and hopefully will remain so. Tonight starts our stretch of games that goes straight through the weekend. I'm going to be very tired by Sunday night for sure.
Fortunately, most don't require a ton of prep. Tonight, I'm just playing in
poisontaster's game. Tomorrow is one of mine, a 100% homebrew game based on the movie Toys. I plotted that out when I wrote it, and a lot of it is seeing where the players want to go. Friday is for Strahd, and I've re-read the part of the module they're in a few dozen times, so nothing I need to do there. Saturday is the one that's taking prep. It's a new campaign that I'm starting, and it's got some mature themes that I need to discuss with the players in this session 0-0.5. I'm currently working on updating my session 0 notes. It's been awhile since I started a new campaign. (I've had one shots turn into campaigns, but I haven't started a new one.) I think the last one I did was Strahd. And while I'll still be using the same document, it needs some adjustments. Different themes and different warnings. Sunday, we have two games. The early game will probably need some work, since my sister is going to be at a baby shower, so Jess has offered to skip to watch dad. Instead of the continuing arc, I'll probably run a one shot, which I'll need to figure out.
Work went okay yesterday. Between my meeting, and one my trainer had, I didn't get as many calls as usual, which made me kind of sad, but I had some good quality ones, so that was okay. I had my 60 day check in, which is bonkers. It doesn't feel like it's been that long. Mostly it was them asking how things were going, giving me the stats they want me to do once I'm on the phones solo. I don't think I'll have trouble getting there. To start, they want me to take 25-30 calls an hour, and follow my schedule. I think I can do that. Their adherence is a lot more flexible than IKEA's was, and I did well with that. Aside from that, it was them telling me how well I'm doing and how they think I'm going to be amazing, and that I'm already pretty amazing, so they're looking forward to seeing what I'll do. It was very sweet, and nice to hear.
Okay, time to do a bit more work on the session 0 document. Everyone have an excellent Wednesday!
