Cute note! Unfortunately with my luck I will probably still be waiting for the box set to appear from Amazon.com on Friday. But I'll probably be at Neumos on Saturday to give 4E another spin, at least.
Thinking about going to the midnight madness that my FLGS is holding for those of us who preordered. That would mean blowing off my regular Thursday game night, and going into work late on Friday (because in addition to being out past midnight, I'd be up even later reading the books.)
Or maybe I'll just call in sick on Friday with "mummy rot."
I'm going passing up fooling around with my girlfriend to get the books and play some 4E. Just kidding, I don't have a girlfriend, and actually, I don't have a gaming group either, so I'll just be playing 4E with myself.
The "odd" thing I have been doing is--after months of following, and posting, every tidbit--is avoiding threads here that reveal too much about the contents. It really is....a change....
I won't really be blowing anything off- its the summer, and the class I teach doesn't start until July. I guess technically I should be working in lab or prepping a neurobiochem course for this coming school year, but those are both going to definitely take a backseat to D&D this weekend! Got another 4E session on Saturday night, and Sunday night!
