I AM TIRED. People run off of 6 hrs of sleep all the time. I know this. I see it all the time. But me? No way, I need 7-8 solid hours or I feel it. Thing is, I also can’t bring myself to go to sleep without a little gaming getting done. Nothing crazy, mind you. Just some NES or some puzzle games on my PSP, but I need em to unwind. On a side note, the 12 year old–hell, the 24 year old in me would die if he knew the extent of my gaming these days was NES and puzzle games. I still love games as a concept. I still eagerly await E3 and TGS every year, but I just can’t bring myself to invest any REAL amount of time on gaming. Hence the reason I don’t have a PS3 or a 360.
I get a lot of shit from my friends for not joining in on a rousing game of the new Halo Beta (which I know has been closed or whatever), or COD MW2…but I had to make a choice…games or comics? Do I invest the time and money into games, or should I lose myself in the world of comics? Now, i’m not, nor have I in many years been a big comic reader, but I’ve never failed to be an enthusiastic comic creator…and even when I worked my childhood dream job in games, I’d have been hard pressed to call myself an enthusiastic developer. So, if I had to make a choice, it was comics. Did I have to make a choice? YES. For me, a choice definitely had to be made, because I have no self control. If I was playing anything more than simple “pick up and play” games I would not get any comicking done. NONE. Halo would be the death of me if I gave it a chance, and XBOX Live would be my executioner.
Just a thought for today. A thought about hard/necessary choices as it pertains to accomplishing goals. What are your goals? What have you decided has gotten in the way of them, and have you forsaken these possible road blocks to your success? Also, as a Pirate Club reader, what webcomics are out there that you think I’d go nuts for? They don’t have to be exactly like mine, I just wanna hear your favs more than anything.
