Well, I took a little break from posting over the long weekend. Just did stuff. However, I had a thought. OK, I had many thoughts.
One of them was that I got some awesome gear in Warcraft for my warlock.  Pretty awesome.  I'm a video game junkie of sorts.  I'm big on old school games, like dominating "NES Play Action Football", and RPGs.  Role Playing Games.  Now, get your mind out of the gutter.  They are some of the most intelligent games around.  Most of the ones I play are also now old school.  Role Playing Games let you immerse yourself into the story.  Some are played with dice on a table top.  Most of them I play anymore are video games.  I play a lot of older games, like Final Fantasy I-XII, though honestly, after IX they have gone steadily downhill.  Now, I also play World of Warcraft, an MMORPG.  I know, it's a mouthful.  For those who don't know what that means, it means "Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game".  It means that when I log in, I can team up with friends to go defeat monsters and defend our homeland.  Even my wife and I can team up and go defend Gnomes and Dwarfs.  Why?  It's fun.  It's a little escape from everyday life.  Also, you have to use teamwork, strategy, and you have to pay attention to a lot of instructions and dialogue if you want to get the most out of the game.
There, I've said my bit about RPGs.  They are like reading a book that you get to interact with.  Like "choose your own adventure" without peeking to see if you chose wrong.
I now turn my attention to something that has been bugging me for a while.  I write.  At least I used to.  Now I write a little, but not as much as I used to.  Why?  I'm not sure.  I have to ask my self "What am I waiting for?".  To help with that is The Bravery with "Believe"



What are we waiting for? Why don't we do things we want to do?  I need to write more.  It doesn't matter what, as long as I enjoy it.  I need to use my life to inspire my writings.  I write short stories that just come out of thin air.  I write poetry that comes from deep within.  I write inspiration with hopes that at least one person gets something from it.  I write because I want to, and because of that, I should keep writing.  I have decided I need to really get my head back in the game.  I can't just say "I don't have time" because you can always make time for what you like to do.  If you can't, you're doing something wrong.
