Maundy Thursday

Today's haul from the post office included the keyboard/cover for the Surface Go, a Get Your Ass To Mars T-shirt, some 9x12 envelopes, a variety pack of Sonic Limeade powders, and a 2-pound can of unflavored whey protein. Also lugged up the wargames from the car and opened the box. 

Also I got more frozen fruit, ice tea, and Celsius energy drinks. All these things were on sale. Yay.

Got fully caught up on the blogging today and got a jump on tomorrow's, which since it is Good Friday will include the obligatory quotes from The Centurion and the Passion according to St. Matthew. Thus I begin the habitual depression that settles in every Good Friday. 

I couldn't resist the temptation to look at the Daily Volume Report on Amp; sure enough, four more returns cashed out. It's theoretically possible I'll actually make bonus this year, but if it's much over $20 I'll be very surprised.

I opened the box for Chaco, which now has colorful counters and a slightly more colorful map. Unfortunately, the Paraguayan OB now lacks "The Machetes of Death". Most of the mechanics and optional rules seem to be unchanged from the original; I expect Burma will be much the same. 

I did a minimal amount of Ingressing today; opened the Intel map and found where the annoying Frog-held portals are that are screwing up my linking to the town cemetery: off in the subdivision behind the courthouse, where in the five years I've lived here I have yet to go. I'll fix that tomorrow, yes I will.
