sabineI made it home safely yesterday. Though the Enemy tried valiantly, the serenity granted me by the Almighty Darwin saw me safely through the trials and tribulations.
In reality, it went really well. They are reassured that we're listening to their concerns, acting on them, working on their projects, and that we know what we're doing. The analysis we spent a day and a half doing with them, we did in a couple of hours back in April. We gave them our analysis then and they said that we were lying. This past week, we FINALLY got the real data from them and we got them to take a good, long look at it and sit down and get the shit hammered out.
Both the flight outs and the flights back were fairly uneventful. I finished reading the Eisenhorn trilogy, cementing my place firmly in gamer geekdom. Because I had some extra time after reading the exploits of the inquisition, I wrote a couple of short stories from the points of view of two NPCs in the game I'm running. Extremely nerdy, but will ultimately be useful for plot direction and story development.
Downwood and I spent last night and most of today in a Rawr state. No, I wasn't gone for that long, but it was long enough for us both to get a little lonely. I'm so used to having him around for as much of each day as I want that even small separations feel...long. We went out and about so I could buy Wintersmith and Fragile Things (and some more books that somehow managed to leap into my arms) and restock my tea supply. Some gaming in the online world of Winter's Edge finished off a pretty darn good day.
Iowa State won!
Wisconsin won!
Awa is about to lose!
Life is pretty darn good right now.
