Unfortunately, timing and events conspired, and I broke my recent string of consistent posting each weekday yesterday. As such, my count gets to reset back to 0, and I start again. Overall, not a bad run, I think I managed nearly 2 months of consistent little articles, which for me is a personal best. And…

Attending a cousin’s wedding this weekend in Indiana, should be a good time. Unfortunately, my editing of the Pathfinder game will take another delay, but hopefully I can still get it finished before next weekend. Doesn’t help that I am scheduled to be back in Toledo next week as well, which makes all the computer…
