Cigars seem to be a common theme, or is it just Father's Day? :) Makes me want to take up smoking.

Nothing like sitting outside in the shade with a nice drink and a stack of rulebooks and notes.
"D&D is the ultimate right wing wet dream. A bunch of guys who are better than your average joe set out into the middle of nowhere where they murder and kill everything they come across in order to stockpile gold and elaborate magical bling. There are no taxes, no state and any poor people that get in your way get their village burned to the ground. It's like Ayn Rand on PCP." - Mr. Analytical

Prepping for surgery to have stent and 7mm kidney stone removed. Going to play some CoC today hopefully not a bad sign ;-)

I hope the surgery goes well. I've heard kidney stones are very painful. Bummer. :(

I acquired a half bushel or so peaches earlier in the week, so I’ve been making peach pies this weekend. The pie-making process and I have a love-hate relationship, but I’m happy to say I’m winning the battle.

Tried to organize my woodshop. I think I'll call it a tie at the moment.

Helped my wife clean up a garden bed.

Now I'm hanging out at a coffee shop waiting for folks from a local tech group to show up and chat.

Then I'll hit a home improvement store for some stones for the aforementioned garden bed.

Pool pump is fixed, and water quality is back below hazmat level. Now, it'll be a nap, a swim, dinner and then prep for Friday's Mythus game.

Using the oven in summer? I'm so envious. :(

It’s 76 now but will be cooling down. However, looking at a muggy 90 by the end of the week.

I am a lucky man in that all the women in my life love making pie. My wife made a strawberry rhubarb recently. My mom gave me two cinnamon pies for Father’s Day. My daughter makes amazing apple pie. My mother in law annually makes grape pies fresh from her arbor.

ETA - our raspberry bushes are really full this year. If I’m really lucky I’ll get some raspberry pie.

Going into work for a few hours this Saturday. :(

We are interviewing students for study abroad programs.

Seeing DYFS kids in home on the weekends is better pay (hourly) than my day job - and more soul-filling - so I won’t tell you what I’m doing this weekend. :lol:

Though my wife got me a couple Avos for Fathers Day, so that’s gonna happen Saturday or Sunday night. :D

No extra pay for me, but all part and parcel. On a more positive note, the new Star Wars film gets released in Japan today (finally), so we will have a family outing on Sunday.
