@ an award banquet for lu and she is very ill at ease. She txtd lis " Mom my team are all buds but not me I'm the weird girl in the corner" Told her to stop hiding behind phone and acting more like her Mom and less like me. Fingers crossed.

Quote of the Day
I don't play role playing games, and I confess to a slight bias against the folks who do, but when I was reminded that the Wheel of Time, one of my favorite book series, had an RPG, I was intrigued.
I told Lisa I was thinking about buying it to play with some friends, and she stared at me quietly for a moment before delivering a classic zinger:
"You grow less attractive every year."
It reads kinda mean in print, but in person it was (literally) LOL.

A Memory of Light
I finished the 14th and final Wheel of Time book "A Memory of Light". My vote? Eh. Not a bad book, but one of the weaker efforts of the series*. The writing seemed rushed, the dialogue was sometimes flat and clichéd, and I thought the Rand portion of the final battle was dull dull dull. That last chapter nearly rescued it though, and an average WOT is still better than most books. Grade: B
