This is going to be a long post. I appreciate anyone with the fortitude/interest/lack of anything better to do that sticks with it, and fully understand those who do not.
It has been a busy, busy month for me. Christmas, New Years, two of my kids having birthdays, a lengthy process at work where I was applying for the vacated manager's position of our tech support department, managing festival/holidays on my online MUD, getting tax returns around, getting a new car thanks to this story - and yes I've still been managing to squeeze in a fairly high volume of video games!
Now? Now it feels like after about 6 weeks of craziness, I can stop and take a deep breath. For starters, I did get the job. *accepts applause and fanfare now* Seriously though, I am excited. Of course, the pay hike doesn't hurt, but the change in responsibilities presents several new challenges for me, and like most gamers, I love new challenges wherever I can find them.
