You know, I’ve never been that much of a morning person (my pesky eye condition prevents it), but lately I’ve had to be. At this moment, I’m sitting in a little coffee shop called It’s a Grind at the corner of Huebner and IH-10 in San Antonio sipping orange juice (I’m not a coffee person, folks, nor am I a latte person). If you’re ever in the area though, check this place out. It’s definitely cool. They just popped U2’s Where the Streets Have No Name on the radio, so likely it will be a decent day. I have a tendency to judge my day outlook based on the music I hear in the morning. It works out fairly balanced actually, as I’m too forgetful and generaly in too much of a hurry to pick what I put on the stereo in the morning.
I woke up a lot last night. The a/c in my room has a tendency to growl like a respectable sized creature from the Deep every now and again, but it does keep the room cold. All in all the hotel was pretty decent. Last night atv Dragon’s Lair was pretty cool. It’s a hell of a nice store, folks, big and full of gear. They carry some books I’ve never really seen before in a gaming store (only available online or whatnot). The people there were definitely cool, but I didn’t really have enough time or really enough people to run a demo. I probably could have but they invited me into their Magic tournament and I hadn’t played magic in probably 5 years or so, more if you consider a tournament setting, and I haven’t played regularly since the late 90s. It was fun though, I was mercilessly slaughtered, but I had a good time. Met some fine folks, sold a book and a couple of Tshirts, definitely no loss there. Today is the promo grind – I drive to every game store in town that I can get to and promote the book. Hopefully that will go well. Anyways, hope everyone out there is doing well.
