to have a nice game of Dungeons & Dragons. Good fun, lots of laughs and lots of sidetracking. It is now clear to me that the older you get the more easily sidetracked you get. Back when we were young (cue on violins) we would roleplay when we came together to roleplay, now we are too easily sidetracked by jobs, work, other experiences, food, and of course Monty Python.
But it was fun and we made level 3. So far so good.
Hmmm… Thought for the day: Is the tendency towards getting sidetracked an early hint of lurking dementia? I hope not.

Started writing that hobby page and met a challenge: You can’t very well mention other people unless you know they are okay with it. Therefore I’ll be using pseudonyms for my friends. At least I have friends who are readily identifiable so I’ll just label them the Naval Officer, the Doctor, the Lawyer, the Designer, the Ambassador, the Priest, and the Market Director. That should make it pretty obvious to those who know them and pretty opaque to those who don’t.

Exactly as little fun as it sounds. First day back at work following a fun and relaxing vacation is just not very uplifting. Well, following 72 Emails and countless phone calls the day ends with a TCPW (This Can’t Possibly Wait) from one of our major clients. Off to the client’s location for the next three hours.
Best part of the day though is to be greeted by your loved one. My wife was all smiles (she is still on vacation from work so why shouldn’t she be?) and she made me hot coffee and cut up some of our Sardinian nougat for me. Mondays aren’t all bad.
