| | distressed | ] | Yes, I ironically have Tuesdays off as I am still a newbie at my job. While Customer Service for a leading Telecommunications company has its benefits (Free Cable, Cheap High Speed Internet and Phone by Cable Line), it doesn't make for a great schedule so far. At least the group that was hired before us have already moved from Tuesdays to Thursday and they only have two weeks seniority over our heads. Thus far, I have found it more difficult than expected to get a good routine to run my life on... Since I start at 13:00 in the afternoon and finish at 21:30 at night, I have to get up early to get a headstart on my day and some good quality free time. Though I can also stay away late at night which is an advantage, sleeping in the next morning kills my available time to get stuff done. Split days off are also a bummer. I don't get one day to do stuff and one day to rest. I have to do stuff on the day given to me to rest. And with my busy Social Life, you can imagine what I have decided to sacrifice in the process: MORE SLEEP.
My LARP is in shambles as far as personnel is concerned. I am now down to my core ten to twelve players left as most of the other less interested and less invovled players have chosen to part ways for personal reasons or personal difficulties for the rest of the group. I am somewhat sad that the numbers have dwindled and perhaps it is time that I move on but those who are left still expect me to deliver to my full extent even though I still have doubts to just how much support and dedication they are *really* willing to put in.
In the meanwhile, I do have an excellent Forgotten Realms campaign that have been running for about three years and a budding DragonLance campaign that I finally worked out of the starting blocks but I don't know if it has what it takes to run the Full Marathon. My mix of Moody players are already getting a little on each other's nerves so I will have to keep an extra eye open. (I will have to talk to Saulot.)
On that note, I can't wait for Forthright and Curtana to come back to Montreal. Since Forthright is back in the business and Curtana will be dying to wring my neck anyways, maybe they will whip something up and run it, recruting me in the process as one of their players. Their wisdom and instruction has rubbed off and made me a good (at least, much better) GM than I once was so I am sure they have only become better and that they will be giving me even more tips and insight as to how to improve my own game.
My relationship seems to be totally out of sync. I think there is so many little things that bother me that I just don't know where to start. I don't want to give in, but right now... things are not right. Spending some time on my own for myself has helped today but right now, I have a hard time finding myself... |
