Walking Dead? Nah, I’m still alive
I am changing the layout of my blog a bit so, for the time being, it is going to look pretty plain. Good stuff is on the way though.
It’s been a little more than two weeks since Alicia and I finally tied the knot. So far married life is good… I’ll say nothing of the more intimate details of marriage, though, since it’s not entirely appropriate and Alicia would probably murder me in my sleep. There haven’t been any huge obstacles to overcome yet, and for that I am thankful. It has been a bit of an adjustment for us both. Once I learn to put down the toilet seat and she learns to shut cabinet doors, things should be awesome.
I’m still searching for a kitchen position, but I’m not in a hurry and I am being a bit picky about where I am applying. I had an interview this morning with the manager of one of the best restaurants in the area and it went well. It’s hard to find places I am interested in mostly due to the fact that I don’t know where a lot of things are yet. I don’t want to settle for something like an Applebee’s because you don’t learn as much as you do in a privately-owned restaurant. I am slowly learning the spots, though, but I am content to take my time for now.
On the gaming front, currently I am limited to offline-play games until I get a wireless card. Alicia’s laptop can’t handle any of my games, either, so using it is out. Once my computer is online, though, I doubt I will be making a return to WoW anytime soon. I played it for years and, while I still think it is a great game, I am not sure that I want to devote time to raiding now that I am married. Sure it’s fun, but I’d rather not have my wife pissed at me because I am spending too much time doing it, and I don’t want to half-ass something if I play it. I am probably going to get involved in another MMO that I can still enjoy but not spend nearly as much time doing things. Also, I’m sure I will at the very latest return to WoW for a little while once Cataclysm is out.
Right now, my new MMO of choice is leaning toward Warhammer Online. The developers have been making a lot of improvements to the game and my past experiences with it have been mostly positive. Also, it is nice to be able to pop on for a quick battle and then leave and still feel like I got something done in the game. I may venture away from my usual Dwarf career choices, though, and make a melee Warrior Priest. Right now, this is what appeals to me the most, and I can’t wait to get in some RvR goodness.
Okay, I need to get back to other stuff. As always, check out my Twitter feed for more frequent updates. Later.
