My wife the enabler

[jeriendhal]

So the Ogre Kickstarter project is approaching $850k in donations, setting a record for gaming related Kickstarts and possibly going for the all time record. Even with about 8 hours to go, I wouldn't be surprised at this point if there's a last minute surge to put it over 1 million dollars.

moonshadowed saw me drooling over it, and finally said, "We can call it your Father's Day present." With it being a three paycheck month for us both, plus me transferring my current book profits from Paypal back to our main account, we made it work. I pledged at the $150 dollar level, so I'll be getting the game, canvas bag, t-shirt, lapel pins, plus the original pocket box game and a buttload of PDF's and extra counters.

Of course it won't be shipped to me until November, so it'll be the best Father's Day present I ever got for Christmas. :)

I've been trying to convince myself I don't need shot glasses or a polo all morning.

Polo shirts are perfectly acceptable in most office casual situations. :)

The problem is, my office is strictly casual. I'd look more out of place in the polo than in one of the T-shirts. So really, the only reason I wear polos is when I'm going somewhere with my wife, and I don't think she'd use the phrase "perfectly acceptable" to describe it.

Still 95 minutes to go!

...I broke down at the last minute and added two shot glasses. That last batch of extras must have gotten a lot of takers - the average pledge per backer went up $10 in the past day or so.
