Last week, during a Wednesday night game with +Chris C. and +Ken H they spoke about taking a break from gaming over the summer. I should clarify, a break from weekly gaming. We went back and Chris has been a member of our Monday night crew for over two years, Ken I believe was four years. And I think I have been playing steady on Mondays for 6 or 7 years now. Our Monday night crew is pretty dedicated so we only miss a handful of Mondays a year.
As we spoke, a break sounded good to me also. Plus Whisk said she wouldn't mind me taking a break also. Maybe to do a few extra things while the good weather is here. It doesn't last long. And for me, it's another night I could write.
Let me clarify break for me. Just not getting into any weekly games. I'll still play in pick up games once a month or so. Ken, Chris and I still have plans on doing something. I still plan to attend B-Team game, they only happen once every 4 or 6 weeks. Plus I hope to get involved in a few on-line games and game with some new folks. And since my good friend Dwayne has come home, we've been getting together monthly to game face-to-face.
The break is only from weekly gaming. I'll still blog, write micro-adventures and bug people for art for the Manor. None of those things will halt. If anything I hope to be more productive.
I'm sure a month in I'll be looking at the clock on Mondays wondering what games are going on. But I think a few months from a regular schedule game will clear out the gaming chakras.
I've got a few more weeks before my impending break. I'm looking forward to it because I hope to take that extra time to develop a project or two that requires more time and attention. Until then...
I'll be chilling wondering what head to use tonight.
Excuse me from butting in BUT just had to hop over from 'Whisk'!
