Extra Life 2014



Extra Life Fund Raiser!



If you are interested in helping Jack & his friends raise money for CHOC by playing games [including a wicked Pretty Pretty Princess game in Irvine] please consider joining Tuesday.





We tried to participate in this last minute last year & ended up drafting Magic at the Spectrum before seeing Ender's Game. Ideally we will be more organized this time out.





I will keep this group in the loop. Right now we are just getting everyone signed up in the group. Once we know the group size we will start organizing more specific events.

Extra Life Orange County Guild Kick Off Meeting



Last night I drove over to CHOC 



parked on the Third Floor


and instead of the Outpatient Infusion Center, I went to the main Hospital to meet with the ELOCG.




This was a meet and greet type meeting for the Extra Life charity event that was very well attended--around 40 people I would guess. 




A lot of them were from the OCC Gamers Guild, but there were also some pod-casters & gamers who were very connected to the community.




Last year, Jack & I participated in this with some friends, but we did not raise much money or get all that involved, so this year we plan to connect with other gamers in the area and try to participate in their events.

Also, after CHOC Walk this year, I know that Jack has a lot of friends who want to show him support and events like Extra Life provide an awesome opportunity for that. 




I have set up a Team Page and will update with more event information as it becomes available.

Two Headed Giant Blue Artifact Deck


Bikes are in the driveway, again--must be time for Tuesday Magic!

Dylan was the first one here for the first time!


Matt continues to be on fire.


Evan and Alexander rode bikes over, which is also rare.


Chocolate Chip muffins were eaten quickly.


The boys all had fun playing Magic.


Derek was using my Sliver deck. 


Cassiday noted that we have a Dick on our bulletin board.

June CHOC Trip


Jack and I went in for his infusion & played some Magic while we were there. He had a fantastic Nurse--he said the needle would not have even woken him up this time!




I was able to beat Jack 2-1 this time--we both scooped on a round three Monster drop--he is playing G/R Monsters & I am playing Simic, so when things start to go south they go south quickly.



Jack is getting 50mg of Benedryl which knocks him out fairly quickly, but sleeping is a very good way to get through an infusion. It was also crowded, so we got our own private room--which is awesome!


One minute he is awake & the next he is asleep!
