Goings
Figured I should post just to catch things up a bit. Not much going on really.
Life has been really good. I spent a lot of time with Nicole last week. I say things our about 90% fixed and maybe it just me but I know I am putting more into the relationship now then I probable was before.
Got a kind of suprise day off last week. So I was able to have thanksgiving with my family. Which was just great. I have come to appreciate my family so much more in the last year and am so joyful to have them all in one state. Even if I have the task of shopping for my family for christmas it is going to be very good to able to spend christmas with them and give them gifts.
Hmmm. Work. The army has not been to bad recently. Not saying it is good nor perfect, but seem better. My personal attitude has improve a bit so that has probable helped. Been trying to put some more effort into PT as I just was to get more in shape out of personal principle. Also I guess I have gotten so used to the squad I have reached the weird extend family phase. It is really hard to explain the feeling. I guess it is kind of like a larp group who are friends and live close by too, so they see each other all the time. I mean I might dislike some of the squad or I might get mad or the might just frustate the hell out of me. But when you work with people 50-60 hours a week in small room you really get to know a person. It is just hard not to connect. So well in summary I guess I have connected and it has made work seem not so bad.
Next part of life. Gaming.
D&D is going really well. I kind of wished I had a few more players as I only have two currently. But we are very much enjoying ourselves and that is all that really counts. Let me summarize the last adventure.
Wand of Web backfires + Setting fire to web + massive alchemy lab/drug factory = extremely narrow escape by jumping from windows and blowing up building full of magical items and section of ghetto ablaze and covered in drug smoke (means lots and lots of fun for very evil DM)
Larp. Larp is going very well. I enjoy my ventrue so much. My/His plans are beginning to come together nicely.
Otherside notes. I have been in a really personal constructive phase recently. Like little things. I am stepping up my role as being a techy at work and trying to "fix" things. I am trying to work on rules clarification at game. Trying to put together a really nice thorough, cohesive character background. Just a lot of little things that I am trying to organize and or improve parts of my life for myself and others. Not sure if is just the phase of the moon and alignment of stars. Or maybe I am just getting back my inner strength and can devote energy to other parts of my life.
Well guess that is all. Hope everyone is doing well. I get surpisingly little oppurtunity to talk to talk to most of the people on my friend list here. So I hope everyone at least had a decent, hopeful better Thanksgiving. Also wishes of a Merry Christmas. I know most of you are non-christian of sort. But it is still a nice holiday about friends and family and celebration of life and a remembrance for the good things and people we have in our lives. I'll even extended my wishes to a happy new years. As although time flies I have to be obviously thankful for the fact that this time a year ago I only know 1 person on my friends list here. Even for those that never say anything I know you read this and I read you post. It is good to know you all are out there.
I quote I told myself today thinking about a friend.
"You are only alone if you think you are alone. You are not alone if you do not think you are alone." Sounds simple but more complicated in real life.
That is all. Seems I had more to say then I thought I did. As always, good luck, take care, and best wishes.
