2018 was an interesting year, below is a list of events that occurred this past year:
- Watched Avengers: Infinity War, it was really fun to see how the theater reacted to the end of the movie...since I had read the comic version back in 1991
- Lost my Grandma Evans early in the year.
- Traveled with work to Arkansas 5 times, which is 4 less that last year. I am going to count that one as a win!
- My son is now 4 years old, and refuses to use the potty for # 2...
- Started playing Overwatch on Xbox and I now play Hearthstone on my mobile devices.
- I did not Start playing World of Warcraft, again...
- Read a lot of good books; The Kill Society by Richard Kincaid, Action Figures Issue Seven: The Black End War by Michael Bailey, Wearing the Cape: Recursions by Marion G. Harmon, and Please Don't Tell My Parents You believe Her by Richard Roberts.
- I believe that I have an Audible addiction. My list of audio novel that i have listen to this pas year is too shameful to repeat here in the blog. All I have to say is that R.C. Bray is a phenomenal narrator and actor. His interpretations are fantastic and most of the reason why I continue to use Audible.
- Went to GENCON 2018 and had a fantastic time. You can look up my earlier blog entry for more information. My wife and I even got rooms downtown!
- Interviewed for a new position in my company again. I did get the job! I am now the Operations manager for Premier Power Maintenance in Louisville, KY. The company owners have given me wonderful opportunity to assist in growing the company and help me achieve my goal of moving my family back to KY and closer to rest of our family. The move was onerous but well worth the final out come.
- Played several new board games: Western Legends, Stuffed Fables, Shipwreck Arcana, Merchant of Venus, Key Forge: Call of the Archons, Dwarven Smithy, Charterstone, Unearth, Seafall, Scythe: the Rise of Fenris, Bob Ross: Art of Chill, Alien Frontiers, Firefly Adventures: Brigands and Browncoats, and Doctor Who: Time of the Daleks,
- Our ongoing Marvel (FASERIP) campaign on Roll20 has fallen to the wayside since my move and job change. This is one I am going to change with the new year and get going again!
Thing that I didn't get to do this past year but want to change in 2018:
- Work in the wood shop. I don't have one anymore...I sold most of my tools to prevent having to move them across three states.
- Slacked off on my blog for the past couple of months. I got very busy with work, and I know, excuses…excuses.
- Take my son to the Zoo, he still wants to see an Aardvark!
- Take a family vacation in an RV to the Grand Canyon, its on the schedule for this year.
- Convince my mother to come and stay with us and when that doesn't work, talk her in to staying for a couple of weeks.
- Just so I can be like everyone else at New Years, loose about 20 lbs.
- Write more, practice practice practice!
- Continue my Marvel RGP campaign on Roll20 and perhaps add a second RPG campaign.
I know its quick and just a list of experiences but I feel better getting them down on paper. I do have a few game reviews that will be coming up in a couple of weeks. I promise! I also am going to strive to be more regular with updates, and share more of my thoughts and stories. Happy New Year!
