Yeah, in this household, it’s Mr. Athena who’s the game widow. He doesn’t game at all; it’s my primary hobby. How in the world did _I_, of all people, end up with a non-gaming hubby?

Maybe this will change this year, but really, he’s said he’s going to start playing just about every November for the past 3 years. It’s yet to happen. I’m hoping getting the communications set up will make it more attractive to him.

Yes, we’re tech savvy, so I’m trying to set up teamspeak now. It looks pretty cool, if I can get it working. Thanks to everyone for the recomendations!

Yes, but by golly don’t stand in front of Mrs. Plant in co-op Doom. 🙂
