I've been so scatterbrained this morning. Got a lot done but damn. I've opened this window half a dozen times and then got distracted by something shiny. Y'all ever have mornings like that? My wife has ADHD so it's not something I'm unfamiliar with. It's just usually not me.
TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)
1. I've talked before about my progress in therapy. Yesterday I had the opportunity to talk about someone I knew growing up who was a fairly toxic individual. This wasn't news to me but I was surprised by the emotion welling up. What I thought I'd processed I'd just repressed.
2. In the same session, I mentioned another friend and said, "We went at it a few times but I feel like we've grown and changed and we're in a pretty good spot." When I walked out I received a text from that friend linking to the "History of the World: Part II" trailer.
ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY
I asked my current DM if she was still interested in taking a break and letting me run some games for our group. She was, and she was excited about my idea of Spelljammer but make it Star Trek. Now I just have to finalize some details and talk to the rest of the group.
ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY
Today is already so scattered I don't even know what I'm hoping to accomplish. I want to polish this D&D idea for whenever I get to run it. I also want to work on my novel and my module. Maybe I should just focus on something simple, like taking my walk, enjoying the snow.
WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND
A little bit more about this Spelljammer Star Trek idea: fantasy trends toward "The Great Fallen Kingdom". Tolkien had Númenor, Martin has Old Valyria, even Critical Role has Avalir. Star Trek looks back on contemporary Earth history much less fondly. I wanted to explore that.
Especially in such a gloomy day and age. I feel like I'm living through the final days of a FromSoft game more than Star Trek. What does a more optimistic setting offer a group of fantasy role-players? Also this fits much better with these players than my horror module.
