I have an embarassing lack of friends on Steam, and I’m finding recently that friending people on Steam is useful for trading cards and stuff. Because my wife is unable to take time off work during my 2 weeks of vacation, to save money I decided to just take a ‘staycation’ this year. That means I have a lot of time to myself.

So if anyone is interested in a new friend on Steam, my username there is **Jerjare**. 🙂

I’m **CapnPitt** on Steam as well.

There’s also a SDMB group on Steam.
