Roll a D10 - Who is the cult leader?

 


Who is the cult leader in the small town, the one no one would expect?

1 – The young popular science teacher at the middle school.

2 – Owner of the home-style bakery that opened up a couple years ago.

3 – The police dispatcher that helps organize the Christmas toy drive every year.

4 – That old guy who is always panhandling at a couple different intersections in town.

5 – The kindly old lady who has run that fabric and craft store in town for decades.

6 – The garbage collector.

7 – The guy who always seems to be working the counter at a local convenience store.

8 – The nice old man who sits at the local diner all the time talking about what he did “after the war”.

9 – A popular high school cheerleader who seems very shallow about everything.

10 – The town drunk who spends a lot of nights in the local jail sobering up.

Weekly Health 11/11/24

 

Starting weight: 362

Weigh in this week: 354.5

Well now at least this time there is progress. I was up a pound last week to 360 but now I lost that and then some more. So I'm not down a total of 7.5 pounds. Just gotta keep going the same direction. 

Mentally I'm in the toilet but that's due to a lot of factors this week. Going to try to start working on some new material for Truly Rural this week and push myself to be at least a little productive. 

Time to go do some more walking around a local park while playing Ingress.

Weekly Health 11/4/24

 

Starting weight: 362

Weigh in this week: 360

So I'm up one pound over last week. Not happy about that. But this week has been hard on me. Had a cold or sinus issue, messed with my sleeping on the CPAP. Last night I didn't even make it an hour because I was coughing to much. 

Weight wise I haven't been eating anything bad. But I didn't get out to walk as much due to weather and coughing. So I'm assuming that's part of it. 

Mental health is in the toilet as well. I've always had huge issues with 'imposter syndrome' with anything I work on. It's why I never finish hardly anything or just stop working on things I am getting done. That hit hard this week as well. 

Just a bad week. Hopefully. Next week we'll see if it's a trend.

Only War Tabletop Terrain

 


One of the great things about working at a game shop is meeting lots of other gamers. Thankfully for me, most of the time it's a good thing. Especially when you see some of them really moving into the hobby and becoming creators.

Bud and Terry are two such folks. They met each other playing Warhammer 40k and quickly became great friends. Now they are in business together making some high end 3D printed terrain for tabletop wargames. Most of it with a Warhammer theme and feel.  

You can find them at their website, on Instagram and Facebook.

I enjoy talking with these guys every time they come into the shop. Although I've only got to hang out and talk to them a little bit while not on the clock. Someday that will happen more often I hope. 

But check out their growing business. It's pretty awesome.
