So I’ve decided to take a Sabbatical from playing video games for about a week. I put my PlayStations away and hid the icons to my PC games. It will be the only week where I can actually pull this off as my employment choices require me to play video games. I got a call from my old job saying they want me back on the 6th of April. Which is re-assuring. Also, I have an interview with another company that makes games on every platform that is very close to my house. To drive there would be kind of wasteful and lazy in my opinion. I really hope I get that job because everyone that I’ve talked to has complained that the overtime bedlam has begun already. Working 70+ hours a week with no days off. Something I’m not sure that I want to jump into just yet.

There are a ton of things that I want to get done in the next week. I really want to put in a ton of writing time for starters. I’ve got about 20,000 word written of my book that I expect will be at least 100,000 words. I want to finish it this year. By that I mean have a final draft ready to send to publishers. I am very surprised at myself so far for writing this much. I remember when I finished my 10th writing session and compiled all of my writing so far then ran it through a word count. When it was over 10000 I was just shocked. I knew I had to keep going with it and that I would be determined to finish. Ever since I was a small child I knew I would write a book some day. I just figured I’d have it done by now and it would have writen itself.

So I’ve decided that the week just before my birthday (April 2nd will be Crisis Week where I try do everything I wanted to do before turning whatever age it is that I am turning. I’ll be Twenty Fucking Six!!!!!!! I hate that. I was supposed to be a rockstar and OD before I got to this age.

Anyways here is the last few posts for my video bloggery.

100 Posts!!

so I did some things today. Mostly my day was really boring. I tried really hard to give a shit about my work. Afterwords….

I have two more days of work before I go on unemployment. For two months I will be no longer employed with my tresured blog. There are a million things I want to do while I am out of work. Mostly though I will just be looking for more work and playing video games. One of the things I want to do is make a video blog about this entire event, I really want to be able to look back at the whole thing any time. So starting on Friday I will be making short clips of what I’ve been doing that day. At least thats what I’d like to do. Time will tell if I actually get around to doing it.
