Life and Death, part 4
It’s getting close to my bed time (I hate getting up early) but felt the need to write a little before I went to sleep. I guess laying here watching my new hour glass has inspired me somehow. I’ve always enjoyed watching them empty for some reason.
I’m getting up early in the morning because of work. It’s the last week of doing freezer trucks for the year, finally. Hopefully, if Scott really isn’t coming back I’ll be able to bid on his job and get the hell off doing vacation relief. I hate it. At least this dreadful summer is nearly over with. The light at the end of this long, horrendous tunnel is drawing nearer.
I’m hoping that once things at work cool down I’ll be able to get back to working out at home again. I think Marshal has figured out that I haven’t been working out because of work. I’ve mostly given up on eating healthy due to lack of free time from work and the cost of eating healthy is ridiculous. I haven’t been working out because I’m just so tired when I get home. I don’t want to do anything but shower and drink a bucket of water. I need to quit being so damn lazy and get to it or I’ll never get to where I want to be physically. I bought a new Fitbit to monitor my heart rate and steps and a couple journals with inspirational quotes written on the fronts so I can write down my workouts (if that’s what it’s going to take). I want this as bad as I want a gamer husband.
Part of why I’ve been lazy the last coupe of months is because Destiny Year Two is coming to an end soon and we’ve been hard at work trying to complete all the Year Two Moments of Triumph and so I’ve been focused on that at the expense of all else. I personally am only after the Calcified Fragments and a King’s Fall Hard Mode clear. I don’t care about the Crucible moment from the list as I royally suck at Crucible so I’m skipping that one. Part of why we’re suddenly so keen to get this done is a certain someone on my PSN friends list named Dan who was all about trying to get all these moments complete as quickly as possible, even going so far as to try to get raids done with a pick up group. I tried to participate in one of these groups with him, but the players were just so bad that I had to leave before I said something shitty to the others. I guess my leaving hurt his feelings or whatever, because he hasn’t spoken to me or invited me to play since. I noticed that he’s got his King’s Fall Hard Mode done by looking at his trophies. Hmph. Good for him. I did warn the others about him since he’s been on my friends list for a long time and not once talked to me or played Destiny with me until this Moments of Triumph business popped up. Definitely motivates me to do a purge of my PSN friends list.
Speaking of gamer husbands, the other night in a very uncomfortable chat on PSN, Gerry revealed that he is 5’4″ and ever since then I’ve thought about how nice it would be to cuddle such a little guy. It would be amazing to spoon with him, hold him close while we watch movies or TV. I just wish I knew whether he liked me as much as I like him. I guess if he doesn’t want me and Marshal doesn’t want me…I don’t know what to do from there. What would be the point of going on from there? Purely just for me? Pfft. I just don’t see why I would want to bother trying hard just to end up alone.
I’ve been sorting through all my Magic: the Gathering stuff and am finally beginning to post it to eBay. Since no one comes over to play anymore, I don’t see any point in keeping the majority of them. I’m going to keep a few decks to scratch the itch if I ever have it again, but for the most part I’m done. I’m not going to bother buying anymore cards. I’ve also decided that since no one comes over anymore that I’m going to sell off the kitchen table and all the chairs except the matching pair of parsons chairs. Again, no one comes over here to hang out anymore so there’s no point in keeping it. Now that William and Dominique live in Hickory, the only one that ever comes over here is Glenn. These guys definitely know how to make a guy feel wanted, but my thoughts on that are best saved for another post.
Speaking of making a guy feel like shit, I had a really horrible day at work Wednesday, and it inspired me to think about selling off more of the things I have that I don’t need or want anymore just so there’s that much less to deal with should I finally find a way to escape this shitty two bit town. I’m already looking to sell my cards and the kitchen table and chairs, next I’m thinking about posting my light sabers and a few other things to see if anyone is interested. I felt like crap when I got home that morning but it was made all better when we managed to clear another King’s Fall raid, this time in the span of about 3 hours AND we managed to get the Warpriest Challenge Calcified Fragment! That just leaves the Golgoroth Challenge and I’ll have all 50 fragments. Woot! I know I’m definitely ready to face a new enemy beyond the Taken.
Eyes are getting heavy, so I think it’s time to curl up with my pillow and dream of the time that I’ll instead be curled up with Gerry bear.
