mikeknIt wasn't hard to improve on last weekend, but this one did so very nicely.
On Friday, we went out to dinner at Rock Bottom with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sansobel and a bunch of folks. Good food, good beers and great people and fun conversations. I'm still a little deaf, so I had trouble hear much beyond a seat or two away, but it wasn't too bad.
Ron started to put in the last part of the bathroom on Friday, but needed to finish it up on Saturday morning, so we were a bit behind schedule when in came to cleaning up for Game Day.
notshakespeare was the first to arrive, followed by Brian (one of the Philly Area Gamer folks) and sansobel. We started a game of Carcassonne Discovery while we waited for other people to show up. Later I got to play Ninja Burger and Killer Bunnies. Also in attendance were: loosecanon and baavgai; beckishadow, singewulf and Rowan; ianraven and family; kathy_the_geek; shadowpony; mare_in_flames; Finn; Emma (another Philly Area Gamer); Paul and Merrilee; moirla and rjsilverthorn; oaken_glen and Tomas; and siobhan1214 and merricke. Did I forget anyone? That's 24 adults when you count Amy and I. Good crowd :)
Gunther (seen in her new icon) was in rare form, counting coup on several unsuspecting people (sorry!) and meeples. Next time, she'll get penned up in the back room to prevent further injuries.
Sunday we slept in, then went down to my mom's house to help her get ready for some painting she is having done. For me this mostly meant going through my old room and deciding what to throw out, what to leave there and what to take home. I threw out three bags for stuff, filled my trunk with things to bring home and left a few old trophies and plaques. Amy was just thrilled that I was dragging more junk home ;) (ok, and a little grossed out that I was bringing home the ashes of my first cat...)
I've got a lot of books to go through and see if there is any reason to keep or sell or donate. I've got some junk that I couldn't part with. A few games to see if BGG has listed. My Mah-jongg set. There are probably some other neat things I'm forgetting. Fun fun.
