As I sit here writing this article I wonder to myself have I gotten older and things just are not the same or has the passion for all night video game session ended? It’s either I have lost the passion or maybe things in my life are so complicated with kids, work, and coaching that it’s not that important no more. I remember going over a friends house and hanging out drinking and playing video games until my heart was content. Now I am sleep most days by 10 pm. Wow can you believe it, I went from a 10 year old who friends called him video freak to a 38 year old trying to just maintain my health and sanity.
The longing to play the game is still there, like a glimpse light at the end of the tunnel, it’s just to pull the trigger and do it will result in consequences I dare not want to happen. For example, if I stayed up all night I will have to go into work groggy and tired. If I drank like that my blood pressure will go skyrocketing and I maybe loose my job for going in still intoxicated. the kids will at that point of me being tired will go into hyper mode and would not be able to tolerate it. A whole day would be lost on one all night video game session.
So as I think about the days of video game playing all night, I am glad I still have those memories, and that I have a job, and friends that I can recall those great days with. But for now I will keep you guys posted and keep it real on video games and my passion for them. Until next time Game ON!
