Yup, I know this too well.  Whatcha want for Xmas?  I want the MG Sinanju.  Three years in a row now, it's been that, three years in a row (oh yeah, and birthday too) no luck. 


My son has requested constantly a “make your own watch” kit for three years in a row. His momma won’t get it because she lives and breathes on product reviews. They are not good for the kit. But I broke down and got that for him this year. 
 

Then had to add the tool kit needed to build the rotten thing. 
 

Wound up being a lot more than I planned but now the two of them won’t argue about it. Worth it.

 This got posted over on ENWorld, so I figured I'd repost it here for y'all...

 

 

This is the 1974 Argo Records release of The Hobbit, as read by Nicol Williamson...  ::D:

 

 

If you don't know who Nicol Williamson is, this may give you a clue...

Well crap, gathering up minis for tonight's adventure & it appears I've misplaced a huge size shark....

 

How I can lose a big mini like that I have no clue?? It's just the head emerging from the water but it fits a 3x3 base. I'm also missing it's mate, which is also a huge sized mini, this one is just the snout & dorsal fin. Thankfully, I don't think the players will manage to get to these tonight, so I can hold off a bit before having to do reprints on both...ugh.

 

 

At least I've got everything else ready.

I mainly think it's the price, and them not realizing that hey, that kit is 20-30 hours of work just in assembly (with how I build), I can paint it, I can mod it, there's a ton of things I can do with it. 

 

But when I ask for sanding sponges (or pre-cut sandpaper) and it's two sets, they'll only buy one of them, thinking I only need one *rolls eyes* (or I say "hey, I really need three of these things so I don't knock them over" I get one...)

Yah, it's Vince Hendricks aka Shakendara. Sounds like it may have been a heart attack. VInce was one of the good guys. There was a couple times I went with the group out for dinner on Saturday night at ReaperCon. One year was to a sushi place, I don't eat sushi but I went for the company & I got some chicken teriyaki. The next year we went to the Pizza place that served premium pies that are made in a stone oven & they make their own mozerella. Fantastic food but ever better company. For those that don't know, Vince is the guy in the pink shirt.

 

RIP, my friend, you well be missed by allot of people. ::(:

 

 

 

Well, bugger.  I remember Vince from the early cons.  We may have played some Warlord and the various dungeon crawls together.  He organized the group outings for sushi dinner for a number of years.   Haven't seen him at the con in a while, though.

I have been feeling overwhelmed all day. 
It started when I was writing a Christmas letter to my Sisters kids (and including checks). 
One of her kids has made some life choices this year I am having trouble with, and writing an encouraging note was stressing. 
It sat in the back of my head,  and made everything else just a little harder. 

 

My Elderspawn  is having exams this week & they had emotional support dogs at her school to help .
I would have loved an emotional support Dog to pet at school, even if you have to stand in a line. 
Heck I would like an emotional support dog now - I have two cats, but neither picked me as fav person/lap  so they are little help. 


anyway I should go paint a pig in three colors.  or at least prime it for tomorrow. 
I  realized this evening I did a tavern called the "Whistling Pig" for a Diorama and forgot to paint the  pig for it.

Missing a Shark and it's mate?

 

Oh come on, give them some privacy and you'll end up with lots of lovely little sharks.

Just..ehhh... stay out of the pool for a while...okay?

Dang it...

 

Having a look at my mini spreadsheets and not only did I stop adding stuff to them a while ago, I didn't take anything off when I had a bit of a clear out a couple months ago, so most of them need redoing from scratch.

 

Not sure if I should bother, I'm pretty good at not buying the same mini twice.
