sidewaysHoliday get! T'was nice; not as reinvigorating as I hoped, but in fairness I was comparing it against my last one which was three weeks long and involved a considerable amount of catharsis. I did catch up with the core crowd as I wanted and spent many hours lying facedown and not thinking about work, so it covered the fundamentals.
I also felt a flush of fondness flying back into the Town, which was unexpected but nice. I think it is finally starting to cross over into registering as "home". A place I have some claim to.
Of course, since I've returned to work it has been Absolutely Non-Fucking-Stop and will pretty much remain so until the end of August at the earliest so what ho, once more unto the breach and all that. I'm glad the point was to find a job that could double as a life because damn if that ain't exactly what I got. I don't know that it's my one true job; I feel like it perhaps brings up a few too many of my stressors and plays to too few of my strengths. But I also still have no idea what my one true job is and at least this one lets me run around in the dirt.
quietmoon showed me their video game cataloguing system a little while back and I instantly went starry-eyed - and proceeded to have a go at it myself, of course. A highly valuable use of my time as it knuckles in how I'm not allowed to buy more games until I at least clear some more of my owned-and-unplayed list, oh my god. I also think I need to embrace the world of Let's Plays; let's be honest, I have neither the skill nor the time to complete every game myself, and there are plenty of stories that are just as fun to watch.
