The Kylo Ren Disney Infinity Figure Has Arrived and I'm Over the Moon!

Today, they released the Kylo Ren Disney Infinity figure and, of course, I got it! I still have not opened the light FX Darth Vader though; they're ready to go. As for the Imperial TIE fighter pilot, I have him as well. I must admit, I have been itching to play with these figures since their release. The results are in - about 50/50 - on which one I should play with first. While it's tempting to play with both at the same time, I'm not sure if that's a good idea yet.

Do You Know When to Start Playing Video Games?

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, especially since Jedi is now awake and seems interested in playing video games. But when is the right age to start playing video games? I really don't know, but I think it's going to be interesting to find out.

A Note on Troubleshooting Software Problems

I have to say, I'm a bit frustrated with software problems lately. It seems like every now and then, I encounter issues that require me to spend hours troubleshooting instead of playing games or enjoying other activities. I've discovered that if I record media from two different cameras simultaneously, I get encoding issues that take substantially longer than normal to resolve.

A Collection of Misfit Toys

I recently came across a fascinating article about Star Wars toys and how some of them might not be as desirable as others. It reminded me of my own collection, which is largely made up of toys and figurines that I've accumulated over the years. While they're all fun to play with, I realize now that most of them are actually pretty common.

A Visit to a Party Hosted by Wizards of the Coast

I recently attended a party hosted by Lisa Stevens and Vic WS, the founders of Wizards of the Coast. It was an incredible experience, but unfortunately, I wasn't sure if I could record anything while there, so I'm eager to return and share what I saw with you all.

A Gift Exchange Program with a Twist

At the party, we participated in a gift exchange program that was quite different from the usual one-of-a-kind pieces. Instead of taking home something rare and unique, each person would bring a gift to exchange with others who liked it. It was a fun twist on things, but I have to admit that I'm happy with what I got - a Poe Dameron pop vinyl and a Finn pop vinyl.

A Little Bit About Risk

I recently reminisced about playing Risk in college. It's a game that I probably would have played more than once if Star Wars Risk had been available back then. Ho ho ho, who knows? Maybe one day we'll see a version of the game that incorporates all our favorite characters from Star Wars.

A Note About Hats and 3D Glasses

I've been trying to be more careful with my belongings lately, especially hats and glasses. Someone tried to put on my hat while I was chatting with you, but I think they were just joking around! As for the 3D glasses that I accidentally brought home, I'm not sure if anyone can actually see through them.

The Force Awakens - Don't You Know?

I asked someone if they knew about The Force Awakens, and it seems like they picked up on some of its themes by osmosis. While we were chatting, I mentioned that I had accidentally drunk a coconut and almond milk blend instead of eggnog, which led to us talking about using the Internet in new ways.

A Little Sarcasm

I tried to inject a bit of sarcasm into our conversation, but I think it might have gone over my head. After all, who needs sarcasm when you can just use words like "happy dolly" and "Jolly is that?"?

Catching Up with Lisa Stevens and Vic WS

I've been meaning to talk more about Wizards of the Coast and the founders' latest ventures. I recently had a chance to catch up with Lisa Stevens and Vic WS, who have been doing some amazing work in the world of gaming and beyond. It's clear that they're passionate about their craft, and it's wonderful to see them sharing their experiences with others.

A Quick Note About Eggs

I mentioned earlier that I've seen eggs before, but I think what I really meant to say was that I'd never actually seen nog before - the creamy liquid from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. I'm not sure if anyone else has had this experience, but it's definitely a unique one.

The Gift Exchange Program - A Few More Thoughts

As I mentioned earlier, we participated in a gift exchange program at the party hosted by Lisa Stevens and Vic WS. It was fascinating to see how everyone interacted with each other, exchanging gifts and ideas. While some of the toys might be common, it's clear that there's something special about them. Who knows what surprises they hold?

A Parting Thought

As I wrap up this conversation, I want to thank you all for chatting with me about everything from video games to Star Wars toys. It's been a delightful ride, and I'm excited to see where our conversations take us next.

released the band from Maz canat Castle it was perfect Ray's theme is growing on me though I wish I could play Star Wars video games and give my review at the same time unfortunately by doing that I wouldn't be able to devote enough attention to either one of those things but I just realized I forgot to turn in my 3D glasses oh no keep them as a souvenir they're really not that exciting I picked up the pork beef and chicken tamales that Diana ordered I shall not be partaking in this bounty I'm not really a tamale fan I used to lust after these multicolored pens when I was a kid this is

this is the time of year when we tend to lose hangers or at least need to get new ones I don't know why I believe that Diana's eating them they're kind of like dooer sticks I've discovered that if I
