 Played a lot of Morrowind today. It's a fun game, but I have to be careful with it because it has just a little bit of that quality some video games have that make me motion sick after too much. Fortunately it's not nearly so bad as some games are for me, Portal not least among them.

Thanks to reccomendation by electric_d_monkand later neuromancerzss, I'm investigating Fate and Spirit of the Century as possible systems for the steampunk game. Sadly, I have yet to make much progress on the plot of this game, but bizarrely, I was struck by an idea for an interesting one shot for a different game. Made an awful lot of progress on it today. I think if I can pull it together, I'm going to cast lines for who would like to be in it. More on this later, though, when I'm sure I've got something solid here. 

Went out with my family to dinner and a movie tonight. None of them had seen Iron Man yet, so we went to that before grabbing a bite at a restaurant near the theater. Jared took me to see it on Wednesday, and I liked it enough that I was glad to see it again. One of the best superhero flicks I've seen in a long time, I highly reccomend it. And afterward, we went to an ice cream parlor notable for being the only place I know that carries red velvet cake ice cream. Yum, yum. An excellent conclusion to the evening.
