Well, we got Kathy's new car yesterday (I was off due to jury duty, but turned out they didn't need me, so I helped with the car). Turned out to be a good thing I was there, because it was a PITA -- no one mentioned we needed a certified check, bank deposited the money to the wrong account, etc., and I can't imagine how Kathleen would've dealt with the whole mess if she'd been alone (and trying to control the Toddler of Doom at the same time). But we managed to work it all out eventually, and she now has her 2003 Grand Caravan with all its bells and whistles.

I'm still recovering from being sick -- this thing doesn't want to let go, I'm feeling exhausted and slightly queasy even now. However, I hope I can maintain enough energy to do some work on the outline tonight, anyway.

The Beyond-Epic level Amber game went well on Friday (fortunately I didn't become sick until the next morning), and the players learned another aspect of how cleverly cruel their true antagonist is -- the Monolith has made it so that even if they defeat it and set the world back as it's supposed to be, their personal relationships are not going to be the same.

Doing anything with a small yet mighty in tow is an experience to say the least. They have the power of total cuteness and utter distraction.

I hope you get better soon, and once I have some time go get my head around it I'll try to critique your prestige class from your previous entry.

And congrats on letting the players learn the deck really is stacked against them. ::Smiles as he remembers one time he had some players who actually believed everything the wizard told them-- and so really ruined their day.::

Their own fault for believing "what everyone knows" and taking it as the truth.

ah you've entered minivan land

Did the needs of parenthood finally inspire you to get a minivan? I ended up trading in our minivan for an SUV. Our minivan's seating was
3-2-3 and the SUV 3-3-2 w/fold to the floor rear seats. With 3 kids, 3-3-2 is much nicer (especially since the minivan had 80lb seats to lug out).

Hope you feel better soon and get to enjoy your new minivan!
