I don't know why I'm spilling all this here. I guess it's a little speech for my own needs. Maybe I feel obliged to say this? Maybe I just got a little too much time before bed as I wait for my iPod to finish syncing. But maybe it's a little pep talk for other people out here. I know that when I was roleplaying - or when I got fully involved - it slowly became an obligation. I felt like I couldn't leave the house and couldn't get a job with long hours because maybe I'd miss something here. I felt like I would be letting someone down if I wasn't around as much as physically possible. My sleep would suffer and I would become more secluded. All the drama that came along with roleplaying didn't help anything. My mood and personality suffered worse of all.

I'm happier now, but I won't lie. I do miss roleplaying. I miss meeting all kinds of people all over the world. I miss creating storylines and plots. Although I can't deal with all that drama. Or more like I just really don't want to bother with having that drama in my life. If I do ever come back here, I will let everyone know. At the same time, it will be just for fun. Maybe poke around a few times a week for a short amount of time. Maybe start of roleplaying solely with my close friends.

It was really nice while it lasted. I truly did enjoy roleplaying with all of you even if I wasn't really around too long. I hope everyone takes care of themselves and that you all are happy. Remember that a hobby is something you do for fun. When you lose the excitement or interest, take the time to reevaluate. Don't ever let yourself feel tied down to anything.
