Quick Update

Posted by Michael Harrison on Apr 20, 2012 in Journal | 0 comments

Not much to report. I’ve spent a lot of time over the past few days working on some other creative endeavors, namely a new podcast focusing on tabletop games and random geeky banter. It should be ready by next Wednesday, so I’ll post a link when the first episode goes live.

In other news, we’re expecting the arrival of our second child any day now. Natania is very ready to be finished with this pregnancy, and I’m looking forward to meeting our Elodie.

Liam continues to do well at school, which is a huge relief. After his behavioral issues at the beginning of the year, we were quite concerned. But he walks home every day with me, telling me how much he enjoyed his day, how much fun he had, what he learned, etc. And his reading skill is growing by leaps and bounds every day. Most parents think their kids are geniuses, and I guess I’m no different.

Since I haven’t really been spending a lot of time blogging over here at home, I thought I’d point out some of my recent-ish posts at GeekDad.

• Try Rush Hour Jr. For Budding Board Game Enthusiasts, about a cute little board game that Liam discovered. He’s really digging it a lot.
• xkcd Equation Wedding Cake Equals Awesome, about a super cool xkcd-inspired wedding cake by Anne Heap.
• Beware the Betrayal at House on the Hill, about a very fun update to the Avalon Hill classic board game.
• Rediscover the Gonzo Gameplay of Gamma World, about the latest edition of this crazy post-apocalyptic roleplaying game.

Here’s hoping I’ll be adding some new content here soon, but… ’til then, you can always read my posts at GeekDad.
