snowy days watching fight club and thinking of D&D
today i woke up around 10, lied around in bed till 2 because i didnt have anything important to do...
only to inevitably get up and look out the front window and see that my driveway is covered snow again and that just got me pissed off seeing the damn weather channel saying that its gonna continue like this all through the week and were supposed to get another storm during the weekend...
anyway, enough details about my local forecast, lets move on to an angsty day. got dressed and went outside to start shoveling the snow only to see that when i pile it on one side of my driveway the wind decides to be an asshole and change the direction of where its coming from so that when i throw the snow into a pile i meet a nice and pleasant cold fucking white out, finished with the drive way after an hour of work. for some reason it just really pissed me off to be out there every fucking day for the past week just to shovel the same fucking shit over and over into even bigger piles and hoping that it keeps up so that i cant even see over it, not to mention the nice thoughts of digging out the front of the drive way and waiting till 5 in the morning when the plow trucks come by and bury this house in again, the truck will probably pass another two time before the county says fuck it and every in this town will have to brave snowed over roads to get to work...
after i was done with that, i went and sat on the couch and spent the rest of the day watching fight club on G4. ive seen the movie so many times i cant quote most of its most memorable lines word by word, i hope im not the only one that thinks thats sad. speeding past edward nortons dark comedic naration of the film i went to the local grocery store and bought some fried chicken to eat with some faygo and a monster...
upon returning home i figure out that my om says we wont be able to see the family in chicago over the weekend due to the so called coming weather. so instead of angsting over it, i called up some friends to see what there plans are for after christmas and see if we can get some D&D going, to those that dont understand what that abbrevation stands for, its Dungeons and Dragons. although i do know this session of it might be short, it will still be fun, but nothing like when i joined the group for the first time playing when rice DM'ed, heading over to a friends basement at 6 o' clock on a friday night, geting set up, bringing enough coffee, ramen, and cigerretes to last you a full weekend. at 8 o' clock we get started with the campaign whether finishing or continuing one, we keep at it in a closed room full of smoke and the warm or cold smell of coffee till 6 in the morning, pass out into sleep, and then slowly wake up sometime before 12, eat, piss, shit, smoke and then continue the moment we sat down at the table, continue this until 6 on a sunday morning, sleep, wake up, eat shit piss smoke, and continue till 8 that night, finish the campaign on a cliff hanger, move the chairs and tables back, drink the last of the coffee, smoke the last of out smokes, open a window to start airing out the room, empty the cups, plates or what ever we used to house our ashes of a full weekend filled with nothing but complete reading comprehension, crazy amounts of basic mathematics around dice and the factor of chance, chess like strategies of possibilites and chances our characters had in any given situation, role playing what ever character you wanted to be for that weekend, whether it be a honorful warrior, and drunkard theif, or an asshole warlock. those weekends are the only reason i would want repition on my life, the only reason i would want some weekend nastalgia. oh well, hopefully some one in the group can get osmething good planned, if not, its left up to me agina to think up something...
