Let me take you round the ocean

This afternoon I received a wonderful little package from [personal profile] yhlee: an assortment of polyhedral dice with waterlines of opalescent glitter and tiny starfish embedded in their transparent plastic. They definitely look like they should be used for gambling with maritime deities, which may be my new plan for financial survival now that the ruling party of our government has committed itself to hanging its citizens out to die rather than continuing to provide unemployment benefits that are not actually the reason we haven't seen a mass return to work. [personal profile] spatch hasn't returned to work because even if we were to decide to shoot craps with our new dice and my survival, his place of work has not reopened for business and is not any likely to any time soon, especially with the city's indefinite and sensible postponement of further reopenings. (Chiming in from the other room: "I'd also say because the theater's smart!") I am still working my pay-cut job which state unemployment refuses to recognize as worthy of compensation. Maybe Ægir is ironically bad at Crown and Anchor.

I won't lie, Sonya, I have been tempted to design a sea-themed journaling game specifically for you using a full set of dice just so you could amuse yourself with them if you so desired. But any such thing probably has to wait until my life is not on fire, LOL.
