Today has been a day of sneezes. Either it was the AC at work, I’m coming down with something, allergies or someone somewhere was talking about me. Was it you? What did you say? Nice things I hope.
My day disappeared yesterday as I was deeply engrossed in the Naxxramas adventure set in HearthStone. That last boss was a killer (hilarious but killer nonetheless). I won’t spoil anything for those of you who may be inclined to try it out. Suffice it to say there were some interesting challenges.
On Friday we tried out one of the board games I backed on Kickstarter: Galaxy of Trian. I’ve never played Carcassonne but it’s a similar experience from what I’m told. There was one huge play that made the difference in the game. As I was teaching my mom and Angie how to play, I didn’t want to seem like I was purposefully holding back info to advantage myself so I pointed it out to my mom who scored 93 points. Considering she won by 91 points, it was a significant move. There’s a lot to keep track of in the game, and it’s a little long for what it is, but it plays well overall. The evening was rounded out with the now requisite games of King of Tokyo and Dice Town.
By my count, I have seven strips left in the current storyline unless the epilogue runs longer than three strips. That’s coincidentally the number of strips before the site’s anniversary. Nice how that works out. The final confrontations is moving along at a brisk pace. I’m not sure how the action is playing out. It’s been challenging to draw.
There hasn’t been much else going on, so I think I’ll leave it at that and wish you all a good seven. We’ll do this all again next Monday. Carja V.
