Ugh. If there's one thing that can hop up and bite a gamer in the face, it's this thing called Real Life. Never mind the fact that my buddies seem to be awful at keeping commitment. My DM is hopping mad to boot... Everybody else seems to be ditching and I'm the one who keeps getting the annoying disappointing phone call about how 'X can't make it, the game is off.'
Hissy fit aside, I almost feel bad for my character Morwynn. Last episode, she was crawling into a dark, godforsaken, spidery hole. And she's still crawling... crawling... for three weeks... And she's not happy.
It's kind of surreal. What if somewhere out there, time is stopping for weeks at a go because some greater deity can't be bothered to watch us play for a bit. What if he only watches us when he comes home from work or something, and we never notice because we don't know when the pauses are?
Crazy existentialism aside, I really need to get my boys in gear. I know that the past few weeks have been the Attack of Real Life. I know that the Real World is a harsh mistress, but there's got to be something I can do in the meantime while I wait...
Thus, another entry into the sob stories of BloodyArtemis. How trivial, how insignificant.
And I'm ugly and I dress funny and I'm hanging around waiting for a session for weeks on end. What else is new?
