Signs and Portents

Okay, yeah, so that's a corney title that sounds like something out of Babylon 5. Not that there's anything wrong with Babylon 5. At any rate, yesterday was weird. You know that feeling where you just randomly think of something, and it hurts? Yesterday was like that for me. There is of course a specific set of thoughts that causes this hurt, which I will not go into in any more detail for the sake of all three of my readers, but the point is, by the end of the day, I was angry, pained, and all-around disgruntled (though, to be fair, I don't think I've ever been just plain gruntled in my life). As I say, not the best of days. So I won't discuss it any more. It's a bit better now. On to the weekend's events!

Saturday consisted of a depleted RPG crew over. We've been trying out the Star Wars RPG. I'm GM-ing, mainly because of my vast experience with the game universe. There were a few hiccoughs, namely regarding the difference between empathy and telepathy. We got it sorted out, though it was irksome. Then Gemedet arrived, back from his friend's wedding, so it was a brief extra-planar jaunt through Eberron that almost killed us. Even though my Warlock is beefier than a wizard or sorceror, he's still only got a d6 for hit dice.

Sunday was laundry day and Unex in the evening with Justin. That was, as always, most entertaining. Gemedet also gave us some leftover shish-kebabs from the afore-mentioned wedding. I talked with the folks for a bit. Ye gods, but my life is boring.

In other news, Justin and I have been talking about perhaps doing some sort of road trip at some point down to Roswell, New Mexico, of UFO-crash fame, for the sake of poking fun at the so-called "UFOlogists." For the record, I believe that UFO's exist. After all, people do sometimes see things in the sky that are unidentified. Are they alien spacecraft? I don't know. If I knew, they wouldn't be unidentified, now would they? At any rate, I'm not convinced one way or another as to their actual nature. With regards to extraterrestrial contact with humans, I remain agnostic. Has this post been sufficiently rambling? I think so, so I shall sign off. For now! (Cue dramatic cliffhanger music.)
