Well, due to the unfortunate circumstance of having been delayed in Amsterdam for 24 hours,

paranoidpanther around last night at 5:00. As one of the purposes of his visit was to get to Pla-Za for markers, and as they closed at 6:00, we immediately all piled into

lythandra's car and ran like rabbits, pausing only long enough for Pan to accidentally swallow a bug.

So Pan rode in a plane from Amsterdam to Virginia, stood in line for an hour for his ~~mandatory beating for having the bad taste to be a foreigner~~ check by Homeland Security, rode in a car from the airport to my place, rode in another car to Pla-Za, over to the Vienna/Dunn Loring Trader Joe's, and then back to my place.

Yeah, he was a little zoned.

By the time we got back to the house,

jamesbarrett,

sirfox, and

camstone were there for D&D, as well as

mooivos who just came to see Pan. We ordered pizza and had a little impromptu YouTube Watching Party, and much fun silliness ensued.

Unfortunately, as The Guys were there for gaming (and because it's so seldom we get to have a regular session), we kinda had to get started on that. Chilly and Pan had a 2-hr drive to Richmond ahead of them still anyway, so the evening ended all too soon. I felt bad about sort of "abandoning" my guests for D&D, but we're hoping to have a more relaxed visit with them post-AC.

Speaking of AC, here's Care and Feeding of The Gneech at AC since it's going around:

I can take care of myself, thanks. ;) Similarly, don't feed me or I might accidentally bite you through the bars.
