280 packs of Pokemon, 60 shots of fire all, and thousands of pieces of candy in 90 minutes. There are still lines around the block.

It has begun....

That's awesome. I love my in person game, but I think I would like the digital sheets just as much:)

I can make the saffron rice and some garlic flatbread if you have any extra plate.

After a long day of work, thunderstorm, glass of whatever, and just watching off the front porch.

There are certain kinds of relationships in this world. Those that have capacitors in the box to fix the ac unit, and those that don't know what a dishwasher is....

I guess I'm the dishwasher tonight. Again.

Divine Divinity was my first and I can't remember how many times I played through it:)

Took me long enough. I get how you can lose time in Balatro really easily.

Of course now I see the misspelled name.

Was just texting my buddy about this. What an incredible performance.

Charles and Eric have never been enemies. They are dear friends.

This chat will understand.

I assume this is the right crowd. I miss when EVGA made video cards. Never a problem. Overclock the hell out of them, no problem. Cross ship for another. Oh, and your old dual 980tis died, upgraded internals. I am still running a 3080ti ftw, and no software can beat it.

Get off my lawn.

I am such a sucker for these physical boxes. Add another one to the collection.

I mean, when in Connecticut for work, might as well get a decent slice.

Papa John's is my go to heartburn fuel, they just don't deliver to my house here for some reason. I really have to want the heartburn to go pick it up:)

Just took my Cubs flag down. Better season than I expected.

Well, I found some 2025 pokemon Halloween cards at Walgreens. 15 packs for $10. Now if I had 20 kids at my house each year, sure. Last two years, we ran out after 200.

Older packs, but they joy in the eyes of the kids when they get candy and Pokemon!

Resellers kill the fun.

Tonight's motivation was, what I hope, is the last edging and mowing of the front lawn. I also put up the LEDs in the office and I am pretty happy with how it turned out

I can now see to read and organize cards and comics.

I did that Saturday. It was relaxing. The SO had friends over so I went to the bar, watched the games, and hung out with random folks.

On tonight's episode of productivity:
New ceiling light in the office. I may have overdone in with the 5k bulbs:).

Going to put LEDs all around the ceiling next so I can balance it how I want.

No matter the love or passion we may all have for games, some people just want to tear others down. I assume you may put one game over another that I might not have. The fun part is the discussion of why and the passion of why. Those that say "that's wrong" instantly lose THIS crowd.

When a friend sends you this picture, you drop every game, grab your emergency case of beer, a couple of cigars, and Uber over.

Pork loin on the left, sausage and sweet corn on the right.

I am so full right now:)

I've graded comics out of my collection before, but never thought about cards. I went through some of my boxes and decided to send these out.

This evening's productivity was fertilizing the lawn, watching the Cubs win, then fixing the SO's broken fan relay and connector on her truck (fans wouldn't kick on so it was overheating).

I ever mention how much easier it is to work on my Chevelle instead of this Lincoln?
