So, back in January I mentioned a new Pathfinder campaign I was starting. Well, now I'm also back running a game that started last autumn. Both are very involved and long-term.

They run every week, one on Tuesdays and the other on Wednesdays. I've barely been able to keep up my preparations for both of them over the last several weeks. Next week, I'm starting a new temp job at a library and in June I begin a trio of short-term courses. I have a feeling that my arse will be well and truly kicked by the workload and I may have to put one of my games on hiatus.

I do a good job of creating contingencies for when my players go off course in an adventure but doing so creates SO much more work. Then there's the ever-present temptation to spend my 'free' time actually doing something relaxing.
