Working towards the Goal
I am strangely glad that I currently dwell in a tiny, freezing cold alcove. Until I lived here, I never felt this keenly motivated to really work towards an important personal goal. When I used to live in comfortable rooms in climate-controlled buildings with relatively sane people, I was never this motivated to move out and get my own place. Suffering is motivational in a way that comfort will never be. My immediate goal is to finish paying off my student loans, and then save up for the down payment and setup costs for a small single-wide mobile home. I hope to realize this goal before this year is over.
Meanwhile, I amuse myself with my toys and games. I've been playing Mazes of Fate on my Gameboy Micro. I am having fun with it. It's similar in many ways to Eye of the Beholder and Wizardry. I keep quitting the game in the middle and starting over with different types of characters. I'm always doing that though. I did that in Titan Quest, Sacred, Diablo II.. pretty much every CRPG I've played, really. I'm running out of non-scratched Gameboy Micro faceplates. I think I might have one left. The ugly one.. maybe next payday I'll buy some more.
