First Phaelia, and now BRK… If Matticus is next I am going to seriously look for a fallout shelter.

We’ve lost two of our best, brightest, and favorite bloggers in the past few weeks, and they’ve both left for the right reasons.

I am sure they also have the blogging community in general looking very closely in the mirror. Am I neglecting my family for this game and Blog? Are there things that I am passing up to blog, or play? Personally I feel I’m pretty safe. I’ve curbed much of my extra gaming time for real life recently, and being sick last week took even more of that gaming time away.

I have found time recently to spend time with my friends and family outside of the game, during times when, a month or so ago, I would have been loath to step out of the confines of my gaming chamber. I’ve been traveling, I’ve been dating, I’ve even been sleeping away from home. (oh the humanity! What about Transmute cooldowns???)

What I am saying is this: I have looked in the mirror, and I see a well adjusted person who has his priorities straight, for the first time in a long time. That said, I won’t be going anywhere, friends.

I would like to leave you with this parting word from Wow’s loading screen tips. I will paraphrase, since I don’t have them listed in front of me.

Take all things (even WoW) in moderation.
