So, I almost forgot my dream last night, due again to an alarm clock, but finally remembered that I was playing an RPG and purchasing (from an igloo) a large weapon for my warrior.

Do people really need to bond over outdoor activities? Really? Do they need to fry with sunburn right before serving hot and probably salty foods from the barbecue; exactly the kind of foods that the summarily burnt do not want to touch for several weeks? What is it about outdoor activities anyway, that makes them better than indoors -- in a nice, climate-controlled, cave-geek friendly auditorium?

Perhaps it is the weather here. In the Great Domesticated Desert of Doom^TM, we see sunny days and think, Meh. In Colorado, there is rejoicing in the streets, apparently necessarily followed by the same soaking in of rays evidenced in a GDDoD rainstorm.

Reality check. I suppose once I get used to the weather, the outdoor bonding won't seem so odd.
