Nope just returning from the holidays :-)
Long drive from Austin to Chicago and back but me and kitty Kaylee made it. We're slowly recovering. The trip back was particularly cruel when the check engine light went on and we got to spend 4 hours in a repair shop waiting area. Amazingly she just sat there quietly in her cage except when I'd get up to go to the bathroom or talk to the mechanics. Then back on the road for 8 hours. Fun times.
Christmas was ok though. My brother got us tickets to a play of A Christmas Carol except as if it were written and performed by Klingons. Sorta funny. Luckily they had a screen with English translation for those of us who aren't fluent.

Only Chicago would have performers who speak Klingon.
I have had that light come on only to find out my car was overdue for an inspection.
I only had to travel to Janesville, which is 75 miles from Milwaukee. Not to bad.

I forget where they said it started, but it wasn't Chicago. Maybe Seattle or something like that. Apparently it made the front page of the wall street journal that week even. Still wasn't sold out though.
The engine light was because the engine temperature was staying too low. They replaced the thermostat which wasn't too bad. They just didn't like that it wasn't getting up to the right temperature after that. After 4 hours of it I pretty much said I'd live with it. The light never came back on. So, meh.

Happy and prosperous new year wishes for everyone!
Wish I could see one of your battles unfold Traveler. Always wanted to grab interest in something like that but there just doesn't seem to be many interested locally.
And ditto Beatuplenty!

Happy New Years everyone.
Historical gaming is going down hill. We had three hobby shops that supported the hobby and now the only shop left is mostly into fantasy. Dungeons & Dragons and Warhammer/Warhammer40K are the popular figure gaming now. Just a few old war horses like myself show up with historical armies.

Ponder- where did the idea of New Year's resolutions come from?

I think it's just sorta a natural thing. New year time to resolve to do better. Except for those of us who are already perfect of course.
