Yup. But I don't have to worry about "cleaning myself out" with drugs...just a nice tall glass of milk will do.
How similar am I to you?

I'm lactose intolerant too. But I deal with it and still eat cheese on my pizza. I have a certain limit I can have without the trip to the bathroom. Most times, I end up exceeding that limit tho.

We met in high school physics class when we were 16. We are both now 36. We've been together for 20 years and were married when we were 19 years old. I will take better care with my facts in the future.

My cousin introduced me to gaming and D&D at Thanksgiving in 1975. I asked my mom for D&D for Christmas and received the three little books. We played constantly through our childhood. My Mom was a single parent (widow) raising my brother and I - so she was grateful for the cheap entertainment. We bought all of the AD&D books as they came out and included most in our games.
As I've mentioned many times on ENWorld are gaming group was pretty much our neighborhood buddies. We all played football together, were in track together, and pretty much were all on the wrestling team too. We assumed RPGs were kind of just a cool boy thing to do. Then we made the fateful trip in 1984 to GenCon and discovered we were by no means normal gamers
In college my gaming was much reduced, but we still got together and played over the holidays. We abandoned AD&D for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay though.
I did not have a regular campaign going until I was describing my Warhammer campaign to a bunch of guys at my favorite bar when I was in law school. They were the bartenders, cooks, and so on and they said, "Hey, let's play after close." So throughout lawschool I ran a campaign from 2 A.M. to 5:30 A.M. every Tuesday for a bunch of barkeeps and cooks - it was awesome. A lot of cigarette smoke and whiskey drinking, but those guys were amazing!
When I was a young lawyer trying to get my career going I abandoned RPGs - played just a few miniatures games. I finally got smart and left the law business and D&D 3E brought me back to RPGs - been pretty much on track ever since 2000. I spend almost all of my gaming dollars on miniatures and scenery (hirst arts, master maze, grendel, etc.) - so I'm a collector, but just in a different area of gaming. Pretty much if a book or game sets on my sheld unused for a couple of years it goes straight to ebay.

You should buy the little pills. They work wonders with milk products.
I had older cousins who played DnD 1st edition and that's where i got hooked, but i never played with them, just saw the books. My love of the genre really took off with the earliest Choose Your Own Adventure, because at 9 or 10 years old that's all i could afford. Return to Brookmere is still one my favorite stories ever.

Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.

They've usually only delayed the "inevitable"...

Getting physical in physics?Jdvn1 said:Met over Physics? How romantic...
We dated for about three years before we tied the knot, but I asked her to marry me after the first three months and gave her my grandmothers wedding band as an engagemet ring. All my friends told me I was insane, my parents however understood me better than they, and knew how serious I was (hence why they let me have the band). Katy (my wife) also saw how in earnest I was, to this day I don't understand why she said yes but I thank all the powers that be that she did. She was one of the school beauty queens (on the Rose Court) and I was Mr. Jock (the huge football starting lineman and hopeless gamer, if you can picture that). I figured the very worst that could happen to me in my life was to pass up this opportunity to land the woman of my dreams and then live the rest of my life and die wishing I hadn't. Best damn decision I've ever made.
