Remembering Failure

I failed at rolling stats for my Dungeons and Dragons character, the first time out of the gate. It was a tragic failure, made all the more poignant as the first occasion that I used my first set of Nerd Dice.

I felt sad and diminished, as if the gods were frowning upon me before I even began my question.

Luckily, I did so incredibly poorly that by the rules I actually got to roll again, so all's well that ends well.
