On other notes, I had a wonderful day having tea with naudiz and my wonderful consort, then going to Borders for our weekly D&D game. I even happened to see another friend pass by the tea shop's window and was able to sneak in a hug before we left. Always a great pleasure to have meet good people unexpectedly.

Other than the bicycle mishap, the day was beautiful. George's bike derailed and jammed. The last time it happened, I was able to fix the chain and put him back on the road. This time, the chain was so amazingly jammed, I couldn't even budge it. Poor George had to carry his bike many blocks to a bike shop. They spent 20 minutes working on it and had to take the wheel, derailleur cluster and chain completely apart in order to un-jam them. At least I feel vindicated that I couldn't repair it on the street. If it was necessary for the professionals to go to such lengths, I can reasonably justify not being able to mend it with no tools at the side of the road.

Time for bed. I have a big day ahead of me tomorrow. I shall wind my day down with a Tea Class at Savoure in the evening. George and I filled the last two available slots. I think naudiz is plotting to bump me off and take my place in the class. She makes scary faces and menacing gestures when the subject comes up. *quiver*

It is an interesting study, I am happy you liked it.

So how is your dnd game, is it 3rd edition? I play a biweekly 3rd and I really enjoy it. TT gaming is pretty enjoyable, and I really like my gaming group.

I've been playing this game for almost a year and a half. The group is great and we have a lot of fun. It is 3rd edition. Our DM is very creative and he just makes everything up on his own. We play every week or every two weeks, depending upon people's schedules. I really look forward to the event. It takes place in Border's bookstore so I can go really early and sit with a coffee and read books until my group starts to gather. It makes Mondays a day to actually look forward to.

What is your game like? What character do you play? I started as a ranger with one level of cleric then the group's cleric left so, at third level ranger, I had to shift to cleric. My favorite character was a punk elf girl, barely adult, who was a bit of a chaotic rogue. Very fun.
