Heavens! Another update in the span of a week, let's see how long I can keep this up.
Slowly but surely the pace is starting to pick up here, which is a good and a bad thing. On the one hand it was kind of nice to not be in the driver's seat for a while, but ultimately I want to get to work, and that's tough to do when you're not the unit in charge.
The biggest issue at the moment is space, or rather the lack of it. I'm living in a room with 2 other Majors, which isn't really a huge deal, but there are a lot of other people that are only two to a room. I was fine with it, because we had a day room, so I didn't need much space. The problem is our day room just turned into another bunk room. This I am not ok with, but truthfully there is nothing I can do about it. I shouldn't be upset, since there is a morale and welfare building that has plenty of tables for us to use for gaming, but it was nice to have a personal space. The upside is if we use the MWR we can be as loud as we want as late as we want. Hmm. Perhaps there IS an upside to this.
Dominion until 0100? I think YES.
Speaking of gaming I finally played Thunderstone. It was fabulous. I plan to pick up a copy ASAP. The version I played was actually one of the expansions, and I'm told the original is better. I now understand what my friends meant when they said it's like fantasy Dominion. I recommend it.
The S6 (communications) shop also has a copy of Cosmic Encounters. I'll be getting my own copy soon, but it was the first time I played it in over 15 years. It was just as fun as I remember it, even though I ended up losing. So basically I got my butt kicked twice, but I really enjoyed it.
Heh, the beatings continued until morale improved.
MAJ Rickert out.
