Kublacon

Posted on February 28th, 2006 in Gaming by geek

Well… I went ahead and registered for Kublacon, which is one of the bigger gaming cons out there in the Bay Area.  I usually go every year with a bunch of friends to go and get my yearly Shadowfist fix.  This year, I’m not so sure.  I mean I’m just a little burnt out on the game, and I haven’t touched my decks since last year.  Now don’t get me wrong, I’ll still go and bring a bunch of decks to hang out with all the people that come out for the tournies… But I think John and I might go with the: bring as many board games as we can and see who wants to play strategy.  I still need to book my room for the con.

So if anyone out there has plans to go to Kublacon, and wants me to bring a specific game or to arrang some fist games or something, drop me a line.

The closing of a chapter.

It’s official. Kate and I are no longer together. We finally buried it after a week and an a half of awkward silence, trying to pretend the other didn’t exist. In some ways, I’m happy. I mean, I loved her… I really did. And I know she loved me, but we both kind of knew that things just wouldn’t work out. So I’m glad that it ended civilly. We went out to lunch at one of our old standbys, Ali Baba’s for their tasty Monday special and kind of had one last meal as a couple. And so ends a 1 year, 7 month, 18 day and approximately 2 hour chapter in my life. She was my first, and as such, will always be remembered.

I’ll miss you Kate, hopefully I didn’t leave any socks at your place. Give mini a scratch for me once in a while.
