What is Battlefield?

I also like to light scented candles and frolic through the house like a Christmas elf. I guess it comes from growing up with a poverty stricken redneck version of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Don't want to know more about that. :?

:D
What do you do with the duck boat? Hunt ducks, presumably? Or is there more to it...

That could be a hobby if you drank different kinds and then commented on their comparative qualities. Or do you stick to a favorite?

I haven't painted those since high school. I guess if I were in a role-playing group, I might get back into that.

Are the new ones still made out of metal, or are they plastic now?

Tried to keep up with a running plan. Made it to mid-December. Fuck that. Too cold.

Mostly just chasing the kids around the house, and maintaining sanity with heavy dosages of coffee.

Once it's quiet, I settle in with my laptop and binge podcasts and game until bedtime.

Cold weather means I can light a fire. Then the chair says, "hey, might as well pull me over there." Next thing you know, I've pulled down the scotch. Actually, I'ma go get some right now.
