Grab bag

Life and hobby updates:
-I'm finally recovering from The Cold of 2009.
-I discovered a new precious beer that is delicious and wonderful. I forget the name. Duchess Borgnone or some such. Tartness at first that quickly warms to an almost cider-like sweetness, thanks to those crazy Belgian yeast.
-The Kathy and Mustafa visit was a whole big load of fun. We had a game day at Josh and Megan's place, complete with waffles and mimosas. Double Awesome.
-Played Imperial at said game day. Double Awesome. It is a non-intuitive economic game with a military component. I lived, I died, I had very vocal moments of despair and tragedy, I lived again, I had fun. Mustafa won on his last turn of the game. That never happens!
-Elaine played at Madeleine's house today. I picked her up, and noticed that she was picking at her shoe in her car seat. I reached back and grabbed her shoe, "ROWRRRR!!!", and my thumb sank into a fresh clump of dog poo. Not Awesome.
-It's cold as the wastes of Heck here. Arctic winds are a-blowing through our little convergence zone. It's supposed to die out soon, and 50 degree weather will return. I'm thinking that I might be able to get out for a run this week. Finally!
-I'm kinda bummed that we don't have anyone on the immediate schedule for visitation and hanging out. I guess we have June to look forward to, possibly.

And now, back to my yummy beer.
