My internal calendar is all screwed up. It didn’t help that for 2 weeks I played World of Warcraft pretty much constantly. If you’ve never had the experience of getting caught up in a game like this, it really does a number on your sense of time. The game has it’s own time cycle that really has no correlation to the actual passage of minutes and hours in the Real World. You find yourself looking up and realizing that “holy hell, it’s 2 AM” when you thought that maybe it was 11 pm and you should maybe get something to eat for dinner.
Then there’s the fact that Christmas is fast approaching. The older I get the more it sneaks up on me. As a kid, I looked forward to Christmas for many reasons: time off from school, presents, and great food. Now that I’m working at a real job in the Real World, it’s just not the same. Right now there’s like 2 weeks till Christmas. I’ll scratch my ass, turn around, and it’ll be over and 2006 will be in my face.
Also, it seems like we’ve been busy every weekend travelling or working. It’s screwing with my head like getting no sleep makes you pass through your days in a zombie-like state.
I hope I’ll be able to get some enjoyment of the season with Meghan. She tries really hard to make it joyful.
I’ll feel better I think after I’m done with these 2 VoIP tests. I take one tomorrow and one in a few weeks. After that, I’ll get back to World of Warcraft. I swore off it until I was done with these tests.
