Long Absence

[Mahael]

Hey guys sorry that I've been away for a long while. And boy have things changed. I am looking forward to establishing a more balanced and maintainable gaming routine from now on.

After Auren left I got  burned out with my change of routine at work. I've been getting home later and more exhausted. Many a time I been wanting to come back and say hello but it didn't feel right to me to pelt you guys with my work drama, since it was mostly if not all that was on my mind. Without Auren to filter out the drama, it felt to me like it wouldn't have been fair to you all. It just didn't feel right to bring work into my gaming.  So be glad that I never did. 

Things are a little less chaotic at work now. The Nazi of a manager that we used to have got fired and now everything is just more relaxed. And just in time too since I have been invited to play Wildstar this weekend. Please make sure you look for me. In the coming weeks I will come back into joining you in the worlds we all share. I might not play as frequently as I used to but I will aspire to be reliable as you had known me to be. I will leave you guys to be the judge of that.

At this point is irrelevant to point the fact that I have missed hanging out with you guys and I will make sure that I don't burn out that way again and to stay in touch more frequently.

I look forward to seeing you online,

Mahael

Welcome back.
Have a cookie.
Or a badger.
Your choice.

But beware the badger cookies.  Those are not welcome home presents.

Stop badgering him, Pink.

I think we've all struggled with balancing work and gaming.  Some of us are lucky to have family IN our gaming lives, many of us have to balance that too.

Once you get to know us a bit more or become a Family Veteran, you'll find that some/many of us find these forums a really helpful arena for dealing with the stresses life throws at us.  Please don't worry about being fair to us If Auren isn't around to help filter the drama, perhaps some of us can. 

May you find here the balance you seek and the gaming adventures to take your mind from work stress.
