Been A While Since The Last Update

I regard this blog as an expression of my creative interests, and I just haven't been doing anything creative lately. A few reasons:
  • The game night at LETU is still going strong, but is pretty heavily invested in 40K. That seems likely to be the focus of most dedicated players in the near future. We typically have sufficient players to have a board game overflow, but none of them are consistent enough to allow anything that carries over from week to week. So we've been playing simpler card games that allow a variable number of players, and feel more casual.
  • This semester I have a large number of committee assignments adding to my workload, and can't really commit to anything that requires preparation.
  • My wife's work-from-home projects are forcing me into doing more child care, which leaves me with less time for everything else.
I'm still feeling dissatisfied with the large stack of games and books I own that aren't being played, but there's not much I can do about it. The burdens of being an adult and a professional, I suppose.
