I associate Peter Davidson way too much with Tristan Farnon to have a crush on him.
AS: "But that's for boynerds! I'm a girlnerd!"
Very cute. But not entirely accurate. There are girlnerds that play D&D. It's not like saying you do tabletop miniature games - the percentage of women playing those is miniscule.
And I'm not a nerd and I play D&D every week. I'm a geek. I'm not a nerd. And okay, up until recently my gaming group included several other women, one of whom was a Playboy model and exotic dancer.
What's the social standing of D&D in Australia? Coz here, I think I'd rather tell people I have sex with horses.

Well, I think it beats out sex with horses as a lifestyle choice. But yeah, it stands pretty comfortably as an admission of Nerd.
I have to return my nerd card. Have never played D&D. Not saying I won't fix that deficiency of character at some time in the future.
Happy Day Jessica & Fone Bone!
I am in hurricane prep. Half days for school today. Off tomorrow. I'm not bothering to shutter because I don't expect much wind, but up to 20 inches of rain which could be an issue. I had a full day today with training scheduled in the morning and dental appointments in the afternoon for the kids. I don't know if they will be rescheduled.
I think I'll schedule a canonball party with the kids later to lower the pool level prior to the big rains.

Not to mention, less likely to cause fatal ruptures.
Wow. I didn't get to stop in at all yesterday. I missed my Bitches.
Stay dry, Laura!
Aimee, definitely check in with your Y to see if they'll work out some type of arrangement with you. Mine is doing that now. They really are pretty good of making sure that everyone that wants to be a member is able to be a member. So, at least check it out.
I should be in the shower and getting ready for the day. But, instead, I'm doing cookbook stuff and drinking coffee. It's more fun.
I've played one single game of D&D, ever, and never seen a single episode of Doctor Who. Though I did watch the Tom Hanks cautionary tale about the evils of D&D when it first aired, and I wouldn't object to watching DW if I had any idea where to start. So there's that.
AS is indeed adorable, but I think her t-shirt needs to include the entire dialogue. It's only four lines, and it's so very perfect.
Much, much eye-ma to askye's mom. The ex eye doctor sounds like an utter ass, and the new eye doctor is quite right to be appalled. I'm cringing just thinking of your poor mom with a
buckle!
in her
eye!!!1!
and Handwavey McFuckhole, M.D. not even considering that he might have done less than perfect work and airily telling her to take some Tylenol. Bah. Surgery and recovery-ma to her, along with all the spare pain-ma that isn't already headed in Cass's direction.
I stupidly went and read the health insurance article Emily mentioned, and, um, yeah. It's pretty enraging. I almost want to send a copy to my boss, except that last night I had a terrible nightmare that I witnessed him having a heart attack, and I'm afraid if I send him the article the dream might turn out to be prophetic.
I played D&D in high school.
