day one 64/366
Mar. 7th, 2020 12:18 amsocial distancing day one went reasonably well. toughest thing was that my bluetooth headphones lost their charge during a conference call with 600+ people on it, and the great-great grandboss sounded like an alien sound effect until i figured out what was going on.
at game tonight, B brought disinfectant wipes to clean the dice* and other things we share. we have the homemade hand sanitizer by the door, and as he was rubbing his hands he mentioned that his wife could only find wintergreen scented rubbing alcohol––at home his hands smell like his teeth.** mood was generally good; play went well even if i'm a little frustrated with our remote player. (he drinks more than i would like since he doesn't have to drive.)
i started late for the second week in a row because i was finishing up my homework. as i write this, it's two minutes to the deadline and only two other people have posted the public part of the assignment. it's weird to me - this is a continuing ed class for adults, we should all be there by choice. i feel like there's a surprising number of people in it who don't seem to be taking it seriously.
this week i took in GitHub stickers to share, since we had done a few assignments that required us to create accounts and i only got two or three takers...and one of them i had to explain that octocat is the logo. of the website. that we're required to use for the class. (i took the rest to work, where they made many people very happy.)
*Fantasy Flight Star Wars has specialty dice, so we have a shared pool of them to use rather than everyone owning an identical set.
**I scented ours with some orange essential oil, but not very much. your hands smell like you might have eaten an orange recently.
