Wow. It's really been that long, eh?

It's sad that it took copious amounts of pear cider to warrant a post here.

 How's my year been? Strange. A mediocre PAX East was tempered by an outstanding live show of Late Nite JengaJam with my friends. Then I got a new role at work. That was game-changing. I went from borderline quitting to actually caring about what I do. It's been weird to say the least. Then there was RTX and our LNJJ Panel, for which I have few words other than awesome! PAX Prime was great, and BGG.CON was the best so far. Oh yeah, AND I HOSTED RT PHILLY! How cool was that?!?! I didn't even get booed off the stage or nothing!

 It's been a year of ups and downs. I'm glad to see so many of my friends doing awesome, but I selfishly wish I could talk to them more. And then there's my tiny super awesome wife. She puts up with a lot, and sometimes I don't know why. But she's there for me, and I couldn't ask for a better partner.

 I guess I should write about games, at least a little. Got It! has me smitten, and the new Edition of Descent is great! Twilight Imperium surprisingly had a new awesome expansion, and new stuff for Agriola is still fun! 

My first resolution is to revive this blog, but with some new approaches. First off, no more dry-as-fuck reviews. If I review a game, I'll figure out a better way to frame it. Talk of the session, of the players, some angle that's more interesting than whether I liked the game or not.

 Here's to 2013!!!
