My wife is out of town for a Halloween renfaire and my daughter was at her grandma's house picking pumpkins, so I got a game of Trench Crusade in with my buddy. I lost by one point instead of the usual 10+, so I must be getting my new army (Sultanate alchemists) dialed in better. Got lunch, griped back and forth about our respective jobs, and had a pretty good time overall. It's hard socializing regularly and I think I needed it.

Picked up my daughter this afternoon, went to the Scottish Restaurant*, and now she's hidden Fart Ninjas all over the house. So it's definitely lively over here.

*what we used to call lMcDonald's when she was tiny and would throw a tantrum if we mentioned it without going, with a hat tip to The Scottish Play.
