The week has not been too bad.  Last Tuesday, gaming was canceled so I decided to create a character for D&D Encounters.  I started the Character Builder and was disappointed to see there was not an update.  I searched the forums and discovered there had been an email sent out to some subscribers saying there would be no update in September.  I became even more disappointed, but given that the update had already been pushed back 2 weeks, it was not completely unexpected.  I half expect not to get an October update either.

The new season of D&D Encounters started well--we all survived.  It was a lot easier than Dark Sun. 

I went and played games on Friday instead of going to the club.  We played the new D&D Ravenloft board game and Catan Histories: Settlers of America.  Both games were a lot of fun. 

Saturday I went to the Social and there were not that many people there.  On top of that, there was no music playing yet.  Needless to say, there was more eating than dancing.  I was kind of let down, but I didn't jump up and ask women to dance.

Next Sunday I am taking the lead in SOR.  We are doing the Rosary.  I have been doing some research and found out Pope John Paul II added the Luminous Mysteries so there are 4 sets of mysteries instead of 3.  There are also a couple new prayers that can be said at the end of a decade.  We are going to keep it as simple as possible--the kids are after all only 3rd graders.  I have a large rosary that was my grandfathers that I am planning to ue for demonstration.  I have looked  for some of my others, but I can't find them.  I am not sure if I still have them or if they are in my parents house somewhere.  I am excited right now and I hope this goes well.

I have applied for a couple of jobs and put more effort into my resume and the cover letters.  I probably still won't get a good response, but I am improving my side and I plan to continue.  I am trying to be upbeat about my job search going forward.

Now I need to practice my rosary and go to bed.
