Alas, the Packers lost today. Despite that, Eric and I were fantastically productive. We got laundry done, cleaned the living areas, and we redecorated our porch with the new Halloween decorations that my MIL graciously gave to us. We also decorated a little bit inside, but I must say that our porch is sufficiently creepy,Continue reading “Haunting Sunday”

Miniature Magic: Nurgle Chaos Warrior
A little back story: Eric and I were up North last weekend visiting some of his friends, and we spent Sunday morning/afternoon in a game store playing Warhammer 40K.

Wine Bottle Mach 2: This time, it’s personal

Twofer Tuesday 2: Miniature Magic
I mentioned in “A Day in Pictures“, or rather showed, that I bought a new miniature at Riders on Saturday. I collect, paint, and play a Warhammer army of Chaos, but I was looking for something a little different from metal and grotesque creatures. Don’t get me wrong – I love my dragon ogre, butContinue reading “Twofer Tuesday 2: Miniature Magic”
