TGIF.

Work was good. And rather productive, too. Around 3:30, Eric and I decided to take advantage of a good wind and took our kites out for some air. (Yes, we keep kites in our desks.) I was using the kite that gave me. It kept turning to its right, first in tight turns… then just diving for the ground. *sigh* But, I did get a decent amount of air time with it.

I came home and spent a little time in the Rogue Isles, advancing Dhoruba’s nefarious career. Hmm. I should probably make a CoV icon…

Then, it was off to Clitorati. Small group, but good. I went all Confucius on this week’s crossword puzzle. From there, it was on to Cheers: North and then home… where I spent a little time patrolling Paragon City.
