Haven’t even thought about the blog for a few months, and have been pretty busy with a few things:
I’ve started a new Dungeons & Dragons campaign with a few friends. I’ve really missed getting together with folks to play since the pandemic hit, and so I decided to do something about it. I fired up my Roll20.net account, purchased some of the D&D material, and became the dungeon master of a new campaign with five of my friends. We’re running through the Embers of the Last War campaign set in the Eberron universe. Been a lot of fun so far. I haven’t run a “paper-and-pencil” role-playing game since high school, and I think my skills have grown considerably since then. I hope to keep doing this into the foreseeable future. This runs every other week.
Tuesday nights are board games; Friday nights are video games. Both nights have been consumed by Among Us lately. Friends’ kids have gotten in to playing, and we’ve all enjoyed lying to one another and killing each other and trying to find the killer. We’ve almost entirely moved on from Civilization VI, but I hope we return to it.
There have also been some commitments at church that have heated up. We’re looking for a new pastor and I’m on the “search committee”. It takes a decent amount of time and thought.
Not sure when I’m going to get back into blogging. I might try to set up a series of posts describing how our ongoing D&D campaign has been going. Stay tuned.
