Good times this weekend. Got some special K and me time in (woot!). Got some gaming in. Got some videogaming in.
K+J Time. Friday we saw Wolverine. It was mediocre, but the laughs kept us going. Lots of cliche scenes and emo cries to the sky. Blech. We had dinner at Tender Greens in Downtown Culver City prior to the show, which was decent. Downtown Culver City is a wierd mix of ritz and trash... There's some fun stuff, but most of the time, I feel like I don't earn enough to walk around down there. However, K and I got to hold hands and walk around. See the little bit of shops there were. There's a massage place that looked promising ($45 for 1 hour).
Gaming. Thursday was boardgaming night. Played a slightly boring horse racing game. Moved onto a VERY dicey "Air Baron", which seemed to punish players with its obscenely luck-oriented pitfalls, and little in the way of planning you could do to avoid them. One player nearly one the game in a single turn with his insane luck streak of Wage Wars rolls. That's a bit too much for my tastes. Moved on to Glory to Rome, and then finished out the night playing Liar's Dice until 4 AM.
On Saturday I played another session of D&D 4e at the local game shop. Got to stab things. Tossed a few shuriken. Nearly killed another PC when, in character, he offered my life up for vote. That shut the group up right quick. We nearly bushwhacked an archmage, and then nearly got eaten by a giant Otyugh that had been polluting the wash that ran through town. Oh, and my pc got paid 75gp to attempt to open a warded door, which nearly killed him. Good times.
Videogaming. I snagged a copy of Sacred 2 for Xbox 360. Now before y'all start hatin', you should know there hasn't been a decent hack n' slash style game for the consoles since Champions of Norrath 2 on PS2. However, the game is actually pretty fun, and K actually enjoyed playing it co-op with me for a couple hours here and there. Its good to get a game we can play together, and that is actually fun. The game itself is just a diablo clone sans good storyline. To me, it fills a gap that has been missing in my videogaming, but it is by no means an amazing game. But it IS fun, and that is all that matters.
