It's been nearly two weeks since I've been here. At least, I think so. This building doesn't have great windows, and I still technically haven't left it yet to be sure how many days had passed.
It's a small price to pay.
I'm starting to feel it now, though. Standing inside for long periods of time isn't exactly new to me. What is new to me, though, is not having anything to do inside that is even approaching busy. It's the first time in my entire life I can say I actually wish I could be in game right now grinding rep. I'm pretty sure that's a sign desperation is kicking in.
Or I'm going crazy. Or am crazy, and this really is all in my head. I'm still not entirely convinced it isn't.
I spend most of my time in my room, but with nothing to entertain me, it actually is enough to make me want to go out and find something to do. It's that, at least, that gets me up and moving right now, and why I'm out in the more public areas right now.
I've heard about the game systems. I'm just standing in front of them and staring at the ones set up. I've never been much of a console gamer, so all I can think as I look at the unfamiliar titles is what a noob I am for not knowing about any of them. I always meant to do more than my old game. It just tended to suck up a lot of my time.
Besides, I'm also thinking the minute I touch one someone who actually owns it is going to run in and smack it out of my hand. Maybe it's not worth it. I'll probably not be any good at any of them anyway.
[OOC: Old and new welcome. She can be sort of jumpy. :P Tags will be a little slow until tonight, but I wanted to get this up.]
