I finally got a new HP laptop and some really great internet service so I thought I would check out the old blog to see where I need to pick things back up at again. Yikes! I had not realized it had been 3 4 years (new year) since I last posted!!! I really need to get back to blogging again. I have a goal of easing my way back into the old routine so I will try to post once a week from this point on but that may increase. Who knows? So, in an attempt to catch up on some things here are some items that may be of interest.
Latest Gaming Purchases
Over the last few years I have purchased gaming products. I have the three core D&D 5E books and Tasha's Cauldon of Everything. I am enjoying these books and will try to get a game together some time soon. I also have the Pathfinder 2E Core, Bestiary, and Lost Omens manuals. I really dig the Pathfinder stuff also and I am looking forward to seeing how things develop with each. I also picked up the Aliens RPG Core, Ogre, and the Dungeon Fantasy boxed set. The last kickstarter project I backed was The Fantasy Trip Legacy Edition by Steve Jackson Games.
New Gaming Interests
My son has gotten really interested in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k that basically means I just got interested in both of them to at least a minimal level. I discovered that I can actually paint to a level that I am satisfied with so I have also begun painting Reaper miniatures to gather a collection of standard encounters; orcs, goblins, minotaurs, mind flayers, mimic, etc. I may not be the best painter in the world but I am painting for in-game use and representation instead of painting competitions so it all works out in the end.
Other Stuff
I own the first two seasons of TITANS and I am really looking forward to the third season. I have watched the entire Swamp Thing series twice and it is a shame it did not continue. I have the first season of Doom Patrol on DVD but I just have not gotten around to watching it yet.
I have Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ so I have seen several other movies and shows. I got caught up on The Walking Dead. I am still enjoying the show; even without Carol or Rick. I am watching all of The Orville at the moment and it is much better than I pictured. I binged the entirety of The Mandalorian. That show is amazing and much better than the sequel trilogy.
On a personal note, I am in the process of house hunting at the current moment. I am at a point in my life where I need to crap or get off the pot so I am seriously looking. Fingers crossed on a quick and easy process.
The Future
Expect more posts to come. I am going to try to maintain once a week for the immediate future. I suspect most of the posts will be about gaming and fandom in general but who knows...
