When I was growing up I played a lot of Dungeons & Dragons. I would entertain myself with mini adventures almost every day. There was one source book that fascinated me called Deities and Demigods.

Banded Collar Shirts
I really splurged today. I still had money from my last paycheck and the new one is coming soon. I looked online for banded collar shirts. I found a beautiful but small and expensive collection. I knew that shipping would be the same whether I bought one or two so I bought three. I really…
