And that quickly, we're back to Monday. It's a busy week this week. I've got games on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and Saturday and a work picnic on Thursday. I'm very excited about all the games.

First up, we have the end of my homebrewed mini campaign, loosely based on the movie Toys. I think this is going to be the last session, as they have a fight to finish, and then they're off to see the war mage, and presumably. smear him across the carpet.

Then, on Wednesday, it's a very Among Us murder mystery set in a D&D world. Each character has an archetype that informs their character. We rolled randomly, but I was very excited with the archetype I got, and

poisontaster allowed me to pick a slightly OP subclass that I happen to adore. One of the players is the murderer and the idea is to find them, while they're putting out red herrings. (Is it me? I'll never tell.)

Thursday is the work picnic. On one hand, the phones will close at 2pm, but on the other, it's a picnic and it's going to be 90 degrees. I will definitely be digging out my straw hat, and getting a handheld fan, because goddamn. I have to show up, because otherwise it's an occurrence. Also, I offered to volunteer, so I'm on the check in desk for half an hour. After that's done, I can go home, but I'll probably stay for a little while.

Friday is Curse of Strahd, which is always fun. They're in the Amber Temple, which is full of temptation to take some awesome Dark Gifts. (Which generally have consequences.)

Saturxay is not one but two games! First up, we have Mad Mage, which was on hiatus while one of the players gave birth to a whole ass human being. I've missed it a lot, so I'm glad we're able to get back into it.

Second on Saturday is one called "Festival of the Lost," which seems like a sweet little module about grief. I'm hoping I can do it justice.

It's also pay week, so yay for that! I have a bunch of shit still to get for the surgery. The button down dress I got turned out to be a very nice dress with completely decorative buttons sewn on, so back to the drawing board. At some point, I want to stop by IKEA and get one of their little pillows to bolster my shoulder.

Okay, on that note, it's time to get myself together to start the day. Everyone have an excellent Monday!
