I'll find a way to take days off during retirement.

I'd like to retire some day and actually play games instead of hoarding them. I'd also like to travel in one of them there space-tourist rockets when they actually send them up.

Odds of either happening are eerily similar...

You're pretty much Peter Gibbons. You know that, right? ;D

Just re-watched it yesterday. It holds up pretty well but it's still apparent it's a 20-year-old movie now. :(

I'd forgotten they shot everything in Austin.

Might go play again tomorrow night with the group. The guy I know is hosting a live stream from his house on his new Kickstarter game, Winterbourne. It's a Euro but the Norse theme has me interested. I might swing by and give it a go with them.

My retirement so far has been playing games, reading, and going to the gym most every day.  And watching movies with the wife.  This Tuesday, Captain Marvel.

You're doing it right  :bigthumb:

Pace yourself there Airboy. Don't try to take on too much too soon. That's the classical retirement mistake. I made it myself several times until I learned to 'Strategically Prioritize' things to do, usually after a nap or with a cocktail at pool-side. And make sure you check the weather regularly because it can interfere with all kinds of plans, i.e. fall asleep watching the Weather Channel. Also, don't waste your precious retirement time by spending useless hours on the internet hanging out with other retirees talking about things that.... wait a minute. Forget that last one.

Any Day is a Good Day That Doesn't Involve Too Much Work or Too Little Gaming

Starting a Numenera campaign with the kids. We are going to play this one theater of the mind. I’ll break out some glass beads, coins, or buttons if they need a frame of reference for combat.

Minis gaming tomorrow. Playing an Arracourt '44 game using Spearhead for rules. This is a replay of a game I was in a few weeks ago that was poorly put together. The GM is trying to get the balance right before running it Huzzah! in May. It really can't be worse than the previous game  :D

Otherwise, going to try to get in some Red Dead 2 on PS4.
