Upon This Rock
The shortened workweek started off with more bad news. Eight more layoffs at work, and furloughs or reduction in work-hours for most everyone. I'm still employed, but morale was blown to splinters. Wednesday brought another shock - my absolutely terrific manager is leaving next week. I can't blame her, but she's far and away the best manager in the division, and I can't help but think she's going to be succeeded by an ineffectual nutjob who never should have been let back into the building.
Stress and burnout and gamer ADD took their toll on my Spycraft game. I brought it to an end mid-mission. While I do dearly love SC, the only GMing I've done in about a year-and-a-half has been in that system or its descendant, and, to be honest, it was feeling stale. I've handed the Viking Hat off, and hopefully the group will see consensus on what game to play next soon enough. I've been invited into another group for a Hollow Earth Expedition game, and that's exciting, and I'm watching the players of yet a third group hammer out the details of a Star Trek game that I'll be a drop-in player for.
