That sounds about right, except that there is a girl involved. ;-)  
Both are reasons that I don't actually play D&D.  But it's mostly 
because of too much rolling of dice instead of role-playing.  I don't 
so much mind the no females issue so long as the male geeks are of 
high(?--er, more geek than nerd, I guess) quality.

:-) You should find someplace with some nice private hot springs, much 
cozier than the shower where the hot water runs out. :-)  
Congratulations, in any case.
