So I've been playing Advance Wars
OR like every evening and it's making me mean.
I win like 50-60% of the time which I think is good considering at least some of those fools are cheating (not to distract from the honest strategic masters out there). But I get pissed and need to fight off tension headaches because of it. I play games to unwind, not to be stressed - that's the main reason I hung up the golf clubs. Never play that stupid sport, I'd rather staple the scorecard to my shin than tee off again.
And then there's the fact that when I'm playing on wifi for some reason, it's more serious to me. I get impatient with my wife which is the worst possible thing. Women, if you didn't know, seem to instinctively pick the most inopportune times to needle you about matters of earth-shattering importance. Like what are we going to do three weekends from now? and maybe I should have bought the yellow wedge shoes instead of the blue. She simply does not understand that I have a clear shot at this a-holes rockets and cannot afford a mis-step.
But anyway, I've seen the damaging influence and will make an effort to give it up or maybe just play one day a week.
And for you who are single and/or living in your moms basement. Enjoy all of that free time. Damn, how I wish I could spend a week barricaded in my living room with the curtains drawn with nothing but movies, games and chicken wings. Al Bundy was right, people.
Time to go sob now.
