3-Day Weekend: Taxes and D&D (x2!)

[canyonwalker]

It's been a quiet 3-day weekend here at home. It's winter, the weather's poor (by local standards, anyway), and Hawk is recovering from surgery so we didn't have any plans to go anywhere. Combine that with working from home, and the days all blur together. To be sure, working from home is way better overall than commuting to an office. But one of its few downsides its that weekends can seem little different from weekdays. Weekends are like work days, just with less work.

Among the less-work things I did this weekend were working on my taxes and playing D&D. Taxes I mentioned starting in earnest on Saturday. After that I did come back and do another tax session after dinner Friday, followed by short (90-ish minute) sessions on Sunday and Monday. The balance of my time Sunday and Monday I spent playing D&D. And not just playing D&D but DMing it. (Not that that's necessarily better... it's just a lot more work!)

This weekend we actually squeezed in two games of D&D. As we wrapped up our gaming session on Sunday we were talking about when to play next— like, would it be next weekend, or would it be 2 weekends out? Then I suggested, "What about tomorrow?" And everyone found time in their calendars! We played D&D two days in a row. It's like a Critical Hit! 🤣

Now I've just got to finish up my taxes. I figure I'm 80% done.
