We attended Jen’s Passover Seder last night. This was our third or fourth year, so the rituals are becoming familiar by now, though I’m sure we’ll never master the songs. (Foreign words I can handle, but they don’t rhyme, they don’t scan, and often they repeat without prior indication.) One of the rituals, at least […]

Spring break, in a sense, begins today. Technically, I’m not enjoying any extra time off yet; we get Friday nights and the whole weekend off, just like every other school, and only on Monday do we begin enjoying time in which we would otherwise be working.

(Though readers who know me might object that I went to the he-man technical school […]

Decisions, decisions. I still intend to explore FATE as a system for a short campaign wedged into an hiatus from our current one. Like many people, my first exposure to FATE was through Spirit of the Century; I didn’t like all of it, but there was a lot of good, red meat for players interested […]
