2014, Day 1... Or is it 2 now...

Happy new year to all!  Really happy new year.  2013 is gone, 2014 is here, sigh.

This is going to be a big year, a game changer, I am going to make some big changes in this year.  But more on that another time.

Today started off pretty good, long night of drinking with friends, my closest friends right now.  Owen, the guy that holds us together as a group is headed off to school at ODU in 6 days.  I wish him all the best of luck.  We spent new years sending him off right.  Course I spent way to much money on the party (nothing new), drank way to much, and got way to little sleep.  It was a good night and morning.

But then the sickness kicked in.  The over alcohol, it always takes me a few days to get it all out of my system, I spent the afternoon sick, just sick, No sleep, bad stomac, bleck.

See you again soon...

Lets see who is watch...

Hey guys, well it has been a while since I posted here last, or actually on my regular gaming blog too. After Mike's wedding was over and everything had been taken care of and they were off to their honeymoon, I decided not to take anything to serious (out side of work) for the rest of 2010, and that is exactly what I have been doing. I have been taking it easy, enjoying life, catching up on TV series that I am behind on (using Zune and Netflix) , and just generally relaxing. And I have to say it has been fun. I paint when I want and don't have deadlines. I go out and game 3-4 times a week and I have been having fun with board games and deck building card games and avoiding (for the most part) those miniature games I tend to take way to seriously.

Now the question is, what do I do come January? Do I get back on course and starting working on the Steam Punk Ork army I have been talking about getting ready for the Nova Open this year? As the tournament season looms with events kicking off as early as Feb next year do I focus on getting something new done so I can get in some games and prep for it? Or do just sit back and do what I have been lately? I have been enjoying the no deadline approach to my gaming of late, but then again, I haven't really gotten anything done but increase my started but unfinished models quota to finished models.

I guess I will need to get serious again.

Self Limits

What does it mean to know ones own self limits? Does it limit you in what you can be or what you can do? Knowing that from time to time you need to take a personal day in order to keep your sanity, or to hide a slip in your external shields. Does it protect you from yourself or allow you do hide? I'm not sure, but when I know more I will let you know.
