I didn't realise that I hadn't ever posted an updated version of Khurg after the first one. Which is a shame, because a lot of those original ones now fill me with deep shame LOL.
But he makes a reappearance for today's DnD Character Colouring Book because Hero Forge dropped their new Body Customiser this week. And what Khurg has desperately been needing for a good long while now is just giant meaty hands. Also feet.
Khurg really is one of my favourites who I didn't get to play as much as I would have liked. Every time I remember that he canonically met Santa who also him the snowflake pin, and that it was one of the elves that embroidered his overalls, it just makes me smile.
Suffice to say I really like this version of him.
Anyway...
This week's soup was my version of Minestrone... and quite good. I could perhaps have forgone the potato, but I also ending up picking through each bowl and eating the potato first... so, you know, whatever works I guess.
And this week's Mini Media Reviews are the two Addams Family animated movies.
I was absolutely not a fan. They really just didn't understand how The Addams Family should work and what makes them unique. Cramming a generic "my parents don't understand me" plotline for Wednesday is the last thing that should be in an Addams Family movie. And the fact that they doubled down on that in the sequel and made Wednesday's whole plotline a "I don't fit into this family" one is... breathtakingly dumb.
But I did realise that there isn't an Addams Family movie that actually has any idea what the hell to do with Pugsley. This does not break that trend.
In crochet news, I finished the squares I was making... I'm just not sure how I'm going to join them together. So they're currently a problem for another day. I also tried to put something together with the other red yarn the Friday folks got me for my birthday last year. And, honestly, I just can't do it. There's something about yarn that I just don't enjoy working with. I tried and subsequently frogged three different starting points, because nothing was working the way I wanted it to. So I've now put it away.
Friday Night DnD was good. Should we have gone left before we went right, oh absolutely, I knew that. I don't think it would have overly mattered in the scheme of things, but I at least had the idea that left was important.
But otherwise we did a lot of going from A to B to C.
Anyway...
Thank all that's holy that we did not, in fact, have to go vote today. Having said that, it might legitimately have been easier and less bothersome than doing it last weekend. Which is somewhat annoying. Because by the time we were leaving the supermarket, there was no line at the polling place and very few assholes standing outside taking up space and oxygen. Lessons learned I guess.
But, we did the supermarket thing, then detoured off to Haighs for broken Easter Egg. Now... I've said this before, and I will say it once again. For the last few years, they have said that they had "broken Easter Egg" when what they actually have is "broken Easter chick/duckling", which, while similar, is not actually the same thing. We also got some actual Easter Egg which had bits of macadamia nut in it.
So good times all around.
And I'd asked Ma to bring the Thneed that I made back down, because, honestly, while finishing off the squares this week I realised that I could absolutely have used that yarn to make a hexagon cardigan rather than the slightly useless thing that I made.
Which meant that I spent a couple of hours frogging the whole blanket thing into it's original seven balls of yarn. And will now turn it into something that is actually usable.
