It’s New!

So it’s been a while since I’ve updated this. It’s partially been due to lack of inspiration, and partly due to lack of time. Oddly enough, I seem to have found both of these things at work.
Lately things have been so busy for me, I ‘m starting to forget what I’ve got planned on what night. It’s refreshing to say the least, but I can certainly understand the need for a day planner when you’ve got a real honest to god genuine social life.
I have to say though I’m surprised at how much I’m truly enjoying the change. I’m not playing Dungeons and Dragons a bagillion times a week, I’m actually getting out of the house, and I’m actually meeting new people and hearing their views on things and learning about new hobbies and interests! It’s definitely one of the most fun things I’ve ever done. In the last month I’ve met five new people, and through them I’ve met some of their friends, who all seem very awesome.
Of course, most of these people are still interested in the same things that I am. Music, movies, video games, role playing etc. But their branching interests vary in a big bad way. Just last week I met someone that knew what LARPing was, actually did it once, and played D&D on a semi-regular basis. But at the same time he was a sports fan and loved to party.
This is the kind of dynamic that I’ve been looking for. Not to say that I want to start getting into sports or anything, but I do want to start getting into new things, and people with more than just one fucking interest can really get you going in the right direction.
I’m very excited to see where the next few months takes me, and what kind of new people I meet.
