Damn… wake up late because morons kept me up with fireworks and then run a game of Hero Kids for my boss’ two little boys to end up stumbling into this. I recommend the Hero Kids bundle going on over at Drive Thru RPG, though its not the lockdown collection the markdown of the price makes it well worth the time spent with fully entertained kids and GMs.

Pledge: Finish the project mini. I have the plan and I am close enough to being there to do it.

I am getting older and parts of my mind might be growing up. I guess its just the nature of confronting change and changing with the world.

My birthday is something I care about. I want a little bit of attention when the rest of the year generally occurs as a series of days that blend together.

I try to do something for my birthday but with things being on such a small scale I might do the week of then my birthday falls or try to stretch it out for the month. Overall it end up being other people that make the big to do for me because I give them the opportunity.

Growing horizontally? I’ve done a small amount of growth in the belly/butt girth since lockdown began *rubs stomach* otherwise, that’s a personal question answered with select company which none here are a part of.

@sundancer Yep, more or less SSDD. Long periods of time filled with boredom punctuated by pure chaos. Now about the Chaos of those marines and glitter, are you getting your daughter into 40k?

@laughingboy Yes, feed off that youthful essence from the young. The general idea of making excuses for purchases is somethign we all do.

@robert All the growing you did we all can appreciate from your vast skill. Take the lessons from Tyrion Lannister from GoT. With all the short figures you’re in good company for making the world more interesting.

@limburger Wee.. ender? I’d say that’s the toilet, though I guess it might be a tree, a rock or maybe squirrels (sorry @avernos Robin Hood Men In Tights did pop its head in here). Agreed, on the growing old bit by Shaw. Now what the hell is up with that music selection?

@scribbs I’ve not been aware of other people’s bs alarms. This may or may not have been a good thing. Good show on the Napoleonics. I’m interested on seeing how that officer comes out as the details of the plume and sash are eyecatching.

@blinky465 You still teach other people what it is to be creative. Don’t doubt your work. WTF?! more videos blocked in the US…*grumble* stupid Utube. Now that your missus is offering you a shelf go all out with a DETOLF and rig the shelves with lighting. It’ll save on horizontal space and allow vertical display. Good work as you get your heroes coated.

@crazyredcoat You waiting for your package is as bad as me awaiting the OTT crew to get their parcel I sent a while ago. Guessing from the most recent announcement from Warren (notably by his exuberence) I’m going to go out on a limb and say that they finally got what I sent about the time that I dispatched to Pundancer. This will be an epic unboxing if that is the case. Yes, it will be a definite show to tune in for as the lulz will be over 9000.

@danlee I was interested in those as far as the art but not sure as the physical miniatures. Seeing them I reconsider not purchasing them. Given some time, if I can grab them, I might get a few. In the meantime I think that the GW Stegadon has a greater chance of purchase.

@boredsnores Welcome to the mess and mayhem. Since your bday lands on a special day it seems like you’ll always have a present of some sort.

@grabnutz Epic level, huh? Since you’ve gone beyond the class maxes does that mean you’ve been cross training or did you just happen to start off with Fighter/Mage/Thief from 2nd ed. ?

@tuffyears Ask her anyway and expect some stretch of the truth. As far as the vertical it helps with the use of foam rollers to pop the back and gently massage muscles. I’d recommend a decline board to slowly and gently(?) pull you with the use of gravity. Now this tank… That’s showing off a good bit of work. Regarding @sundancer I’ll defer to The Squirrel Nut Sippers and their song “Plenty More”.
