Getting things done.

[gridlore]

• Started demolishing the apartment today. I'm doing it in strips; concentrating on one area and getting that area done before moving on.


• This first strip included my RPG/gaming shelf. I tore into it without mercy.


• As a result, I have box of stuff that is going to being given away or sold, and a few rarities that are going up on eBay.


• It's really shocking to see how old some of this stuff is. I have emails I printed out in 1997 stuffed into folders.


• Among the rarities a near-complete run of the print edition of Pyramid and the Skyraiders trilogy from FASA.


• Three bags of garbage down to the dumpster.


• Taking a break, and we have called in a pizza strike.


• I've discovered I have an odd habit in Civ IV. Being a veteran and a student of history, I'm reluctant to start wars without an overwhelming edge in technology and troops.


• Besides, it's more fun to culture bomb cities and have them defect to your side.


• It's officially winter here at Offhand Manor. Tonight, the fuzzy penguin sheets go on the bed.


• Yes, there is a ceremony involved. It starts with the ritual Removal of the Stuffed Animals.


• Got some good news at work. On Wednesday I'm dropping my truck off at the welder's to have my gates repaired!


• At this point, it's easier to list the ones that aren't bent or missing latch pieces.


• It's chilly today. A nice hot shower is most assuredly in my future.

1997? If it wasn't destroyed in the flood, I have printout email from 1977!

Heck, I have RPG characters from 1977.

Heh, I still have some very old notes from 1973, but i think my earliest [kept] printouts only date from 1986. Dot matrix printers - yeesh!

Gaming: it's the stuff we keep.
