Weekend Results/Dream

[worldoflucky]

Last weekend was great:

• The wife and I stayed home Saturday and chilled. I ran the wife some solo gaming and she returned the favor.
• Sunday we had a large game of Shadowrun, it was  8 of us and I had a blast running the game. It involved ducened, talkswithwind, ethicalcannibal, yog_sothoth, dudeling, finnegwyn and godling. It was great to have my regular players and my old players. Everything went smooth, the group kicked ass and it was a ton of fun.
• Monday we huddled together (wife and I), played video games and just hung out.

The rest of the week hasn't been so fun. I think I have been sick. Tuesday was ok, I went to work and it was a rough day. I worked out and then came home feeling ill. We did watch some Little House on the Prairie (that was a highlight).

Wednesday I woke up feeling like crap. I called in sick, but it turned out I needed to go in for an interview with the head of the local entity I was auditing. That was a frustrating endeavor and I ended up working about 5-6 hours (mostly at home). I was able to drop off and pick up ethicalcannibal, as she wasn't feeling well. I got home, broke down and gorged on the beans of jelly. I haven't overdone sweets since the beginning of the year, but yesterday I was a bit stressed.

I ran a game for wifey last night, then watched some Hawaii Five-O and went to bed. I woke up at 3am with strange dreams. It was a dream that had me and ethicalcannibal were at some sort of high school student camp out. We were auditing something about the camp out and the students, as we chatted with the students I joked that the only computers available when I was in high school were the old Apple IIe. I woke up and felt super anxious. A full blown anxiety attack hit me like a ton of bricks. So here I am up and feeling anxiety.

I suspect it has to do with being sick and eating so much sugar. I think I am going to go back to not eating crap sugar and I wonder how much that had to do with it. now I am sitting here with 4 hours of sleep, starting to calm down but trying to figure out what I was even anxious about.

Yikes, I'm sorry to hear that... Interesting to think about the connection between food and anxiety. I wonder if that might be a huge part of it.

I want to play Shadowrun with you guys! I had the book when I was a tyke. :) I remember playing the heck out of the Genesis and SNES games (even though they weren't that great or very faithful to the paper game) and trying to play it on my own. hehe....

Read a few of the books as well. One in particular really captivated me. "Shadowplay" or something. Nigel D. Findley? I wonder if that's what it was. Anyway, I read that book in like 5th or 6th grade, and it was like opening my head up to a new world every time I had a break. Grade school was an awful time in my life, but it was fun to be able to read a lot. :)

You would always be welcome to play. On a side note, I am currently working on a way to do the game online. I have several friends that may be moving in the next year or so for job opportunities and I am trying to work out a system they can play remotely using webcam, online tools and stuff like that.

If we ever get that working, you are definitely welcome here.

How cool would that be!! Do you think it might be awkward for someone who's never played before to try doing it on webcam?

Nah, I might run a small couple of sessions with you and my wife (who is very experienced with gaming) so to give you a feel if you would even like it. It would also work good to show you the normal etiquette of group gaming and so forth.

Good point. I know absolutely nothing about etiquette. (Speaking of anxiety! hehe)
