Wednesday night: The ol’ roleplaying group brought to a close our long-running superhero game — with a bang, to say the least. Stunning victories, tragic turns, and an ending that made sense and yet wasn’t what anyone had really anticipated. A smashing end to a campaign that had a great run. Special kudos to “Jim”:http://www.highclearing.com/, who was the alpha GM.

Thursday night: Got a couple hours of Halo 2 in via Xbox Live, with ol’ college buddies Dave, Kiff, and “Chris”:http://eologism.blogspot.com/, all scattered across the country. Yes, it’s true, I took the plunge and got an Xbox (I’d better be right about that tax return now …). If the past couple hours are any indication, it was money ridiculously well spent. But I’ll save my gushing for later.

Truly, my gaming cup runneth over.
