I was finally able to play Warhammer 40K tonight!!! Huzzah!! It's been some long grueling months, but I have temporarily satiated my thirst for war with two more victories under my belt, and a again a growing hunger for honorable battle! It helps to play against people that are good sports though. I hate the people I've played who are pissers and rules-nazis who take the fun out of the game. Generally it's people who play to win to prove they're better than everyone else. I'm a laid back gamer - I love to have fun and I love to win, it's just I'll let my models do the fighting. It's not a battle between me and my opponent, it's between our forces, so I leave it at that. Even when I'm losing I'm having fun, cause generally there's hilarity in my games no matter what happens (ie. my friend's plasma gunner burning himself on the first shot, then mine doing the same). So altogether, yes, I can be called a nerd by technical definition. But it's that I don't make it my life to play games is what keeps people from actually knowing me as that I think. To me it's a hobby, not a lifestyle (well maybe, =P) but like I see these people get so in to it, and it's like all they do outside of work. They have little life, no girlfriend or equivalent, and the majority of friends if any are the ones they game with. Everything in moderation - My life is in balance, in equilibrium, and I strive to keep it such. Without balance, things get all awry. I know that all too well, and now I live quite a bit better and well rounded. It's not easy don't get me wrong, but to achieve it is an awesome feeling. Wow, I should end this now before my thoughts get outta control. Sometimes I can think about dozens of things in the span of seconds, and then on to something else just as quickly. Shoot, there I go again almost, lol. Well, take care all!
