Message: <blockquote data-quote="WizarDru" data-source="post: 1298132" data-attributes="member: 151">I often tend to forget that I live in a 'Blue' state, so statements like this always suprise me.  Pennsylvania only allows alcohol to be sold in 'state stores', which are only open Monday-Saturday, and beer can't be sold in the same store as wine and liquor, generally.  So when I hear of Trader Joe's carrying cool microbrews, it throws me for a loop. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  (mind you, it also confuses me when I go southwards and find that Yeungling has spread so far beyond it's home, like North Carolina or Florida).  [Cracks whip] Back to work!  That supplement ain't writing itself, ya know! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Much as it pains me to say it, the story hour can wait until you get to it.....hey, someone has to be the Jiminy Cricket, here. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />  The Shorecon get-together was a lot of fun, even if only a few folks were able to make it.  Good food, good beer and good games.  Of course, I was able to leave the kids at the grandparents and the wife games, so I count my blessings.  On a side note, one of my players, Scorch, has taken to running my kids through their own little D&D game using some of our D&D minis, some Mage Knight castle pieces and few six-siders.  It's adorable.  I keep telling him he should make a story hour. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Either way, make sure and arrange for some down time for yourself.  Burnout is a terrible thing.</blockquote>
