An attempt to be more friendly
So I was talking to a friend today and was pointing out how I never post on live journal because I feel no real need or want to spread my buisness out and about to other people. They raised an interesting point. They claimed that posting what is going on in my life isn't about me being able to tell others about how boring it currently is, but is more a way for me to show my friends that I want them to be involved in my life and that I care about thier oppinions of what is happening to me. That is a fairly interesting perspective. As such, I post:
To start off since I want people reading this bit, before they space out and stop reading. I AM PREPARING TO RUN A VIKING CAMPAIGN!
This game is going to be 4th ed D&D low magic, based on earth in mythological past. I'm using a lot of plot from various Norse poems and I will even sing at a few sessions (my appologies in advance). Scott and Juli are going to play and I need at least two more players. I will try and have it on a regular day during the week at my place. Game will start right around 530 and we'll play as late as we can. I really want to get back to gaming, preferably with my good friends. All you need to do is show up, I will try and provide food ect. Please feel free to contact me if you want in.
So I'm in summer classes. I ended last semester with like 3 A's and 2 B's. I'm actually caring about school and trying to be the best I can with what I'm learning (Yes I realize the irony of this what with me posting a live journal entry in the middle of class). I'm in class every day from 9-4 then most days I go to work from 430 to 10. It's not so bad. I am finding my job very entertaining lately. There's something very sadistically pleasing in stripping ignorant people of thier money because I can out talk them. Hey don't look at me like that, I'm stimulating the economy!
So I've been pretty bored lately. When I do get a free moment I have no motivation to do anything. Not even read. With the exception of Scott and Juli (who are great but have thier own stuff to do) pretty much all of my friends have moved away. I realize now that I made a mistake in isolating myself from the group, even if such isolation was driven by guilt. I do look fondly back at my college days and hope that when I'm finished with this I will finally be able to have fun again. Everything seems to have lost flavor. I barely read, I rarely play video games, and I've pretty much quit WoW. Everyone is off living thier own lives which is awesome but I feel like I never hear from anyone anymore. Just as well, I wouldn't have much to talk about anyway lol. Jess, Scott, Juli and my cat are pretty much my main connections to the world right now. With out them I fear I would sort of fade away.
But on a lighter not my cousin's bachelor party is this weekend! That's going to be... interesting.
Cheers,
