Yesterday was a mismash of work and Dragonrealms. More on the latter in a minute.
In the quest of trying to find another book, I stumbled across Julia Quinn's, "To Sir Philip, With Love," published last year. I had enough cash to buy it and have been reading it today. It has been a long time since I've actively taken the time to sit and read a book, even stealing time I don't have from my day to do so. It is a good book, but I think I'm just stressed.
But it's not work that's stressing me. It's my hobby.
DR has instigated one of the largest things I think it's ever done, The Outcast War. For the most part, I'm having fun. But several events that have happened lately have really made me waver on this. It's made me question my ability as a leader. After the seventh time of my second-in-command saying "I can't do this anymore," I finally open her mouth and tell her what all I've been doing. And how I'm tired. But I don't stop because I still have faith in what our province IG is doing. Because my sense of duty is too damn strong. Because I refuse to give up.
On the side, I began helping my friend Tiff restore the virtual DQ seventh season site back to its original form. I get to reformat the episodes. Yay. she joked that this could be a "syndicated airing" of this. With the time it'll take to reformat these episodes, it won't be far from the truth.
A friend from college, Dan Murphy, contacted me last night over a job opening we have here at the Herald Courier for a arts/graphic designer. I told him all about the paper, dug up some stuff from the CW and spent about 20 minutes bragging about him to Steve earlier today. I hope it gets somewhere. Having Dan up here would be really cool. It also reminded me how much I miss my friends.
And I FINALLY beat Seymour Flux! YES! It only took me the better part of three hours (on and off playing - I was splitting my attention between that and DR). Now I'm seeing some cool stuff in Zanarkand.
cowgirled asked me to help judge her fanfic contest. I've never judged a contest like that before. My fics are even nominated for categories I am not judging in. I must get back to writing...
And for some reason, Hiko-sama keeps falling off the shelf. Grrr....too arrogant for his own good.
Akai-san, I'll be playing Kingdom Hearts soon! (Provided I don't run out and get FFX-2)
