 Well, you always did want to go to space... ::P:

 

True, but gravity is such a selfish companion.

Pretty sure it's all in his stomach, and depending on how that battle with vertigo goes, all over his floor...

 

Had the steak dinner with a beer after grilling was done. Had a pleasant evening and saw the kids off back to college. 
 

Other than waking up a lot during the night to drink water and return the previous glass to the environment, no ill effects. 
 

Like I said, a good tequila.

That does sound like a good tequila! There's a vastly different selection up here than what I'm used to. No wonder so many folks put so much sugar in their margaritas! The stuff I tried up here was not good. 😆 no headaches or anything but I was thirsty for a full day after haha!

 Ye gods I played way too much Star Wars: The Old Republic this weekend - I actually missed a doctor's appointment this morning because I lost track of time...:rolleyes:

 

 On the other hand, I've leveled up my crafting skills to the point where I can actually make things to enhance my equipment that are worth making. Of course, in the course of doing so, I've wiped out all my character's cash and crafting supplies, so now I need to go back out and do some murder-hobo-ing to restock both.

Because I'm a DPS class, it's important for me to keep my Alacrity score up to a certain level, since it controls both the cooldowns on my attack abilities and just the general speed with which I attack. There are certain break points you want to shoot for because of the formula for how the game calculates your attack speed (and right now I'm dead in the middle between two of them), so I'm adding augments to my gear to increase my Alacrity, hopefully up to the next break point.

Since that's going to take quite a bit of time and work, I'm absolutely going to end up doing it incrementally as my crafting skills improve and I can gather the needed components (Which takes a hell of a lot of grinding)...

 

Don't ya just love it when you have to work really hard to have fun? lol

Thanks for all your input on my badge question.  Ya'll made some good points, but ultimately, what you really helped me do was make up my mind which faction I was going to use this one for:

I decided to use this one for the Cethalaran Directorate.  It's my favorite, and I wanted to go with it, but I kept waffling about it possibly being a better fit for the Terran Federation.   The CD is the largest interstellar government in the setting and where most of the campaign is taking place.  The CD is the result of the Colonial Wars, where Earth's colonies rebelled, and ya'll made me realize that the 3 stars could  be a play on the colonies coming together to defeat old Earth.

And by making this one the Terran Federation, it gives even more meaning to the three stars in the CD badge. 

The reason I needed to decide quickly is I was creating the reminder card for the next session. Since we only play monthly, and it is a bunch of kids, I send out a reminder card monthly with a snippet of setting data usually related to the next session on it that they can post on their parents fridge (or where ever) to remind them of the game session (and to give their parents a talking point to ask about the game). Here's this months card:

Now that I've posted this (and already mailed it), I really hope that Google's Latin translation of Shields in the Dark is correct. None of the kids are likely to know, as our high school doesn't offer Latin as a class, but their parents might.
