mixed day

[winterbadger]

Yesterday was quite a mixture. Good morning with Nora; in the afternoon I couldn't find my free tailgate pass, so I had to buy one ($6) and when I got there there was almsot no food left and the keg was kicked before I got any beer. I found when I got to the gate that I'd brought the wrong ticket, so I had to buy one ($24). But the Guinness stall was open and DC United won 3-1, so the evening was not total frustration.

Today I lost an ASL game in the morning, and now I'm putting camera software on Nora's PC. Not sure what the evening holds... probably several episodes of ER and some chili. But I think maybe I will be crushed in a few games of Carcasonne Castle before Nora has to go off to her own dinner...

Nora missed out on all that plus the 5 de Mayo tricolored mint juleps? The poor thing. :-)

Your subtle information ops campaign to persuade me that I might not get creamed if I played ASL with you (at least if you play the Brits) continues, I see. Must . . . resist . . .

Just to add to the temptation, you wouldn't even have to unearth your supplies from behind all the boxes, as I (and any other individual member of the DC Conscripts, a ready-made group of opponents) can generally come up with all that's needed for anything other than the really massive scenarios. (The entire Gold Beach landing at squad level...I still shudder with awe at that idea...)
