The Nine Ways To Catch A Hippo

…using only a net, some old socks and a pie

Stuff-O-Rama

1: Watched The Dresden Files on Sci Fi Channel. Pretty good adaptation, despite a couple of slightly jarring changes from the books. The actor playing Harry does a fine job.

2: I went and bought tea and spices from the herb/spice lady at the farmers market inside Denio’s Flea Market. As we were talking, it dawned on me that I’ve been buying stuff from her for just a tad shy of 30 years now. Kinda cool, that.

3: Taking the girls to the dog park on the weekends is a good idea, since it means tired out hounds when we get back. Sorta like letting kids wear themselves out at a playground so they’ll go to bed early…which I used to do with my nieces & nephews when they’d visit me.

4: We had a one day respite from overnight freezes, but tonight it’s supposed to get back down in the mid-20’s. Man, will my poor wee plants be lovin’ the comin’ a’ spring.

5: I submitted a game for Conquest Sac. The fact that they extended their “GM a game, get a pair of personalized dice” offer tells me they are probably needing GM’s. My game will be a Pulp Era adventure titled The Monster Maker.

6: Heroes returns tomorrow night! Huzzah!

Time to put the girls to bed. More blogishness soon.
