Life Is Not Purgatory

All Quiet on the Purgatory Front
It's strange. Friday (three days ago) was the final Purgatory game for this 'season'. It went very well (so I hear), and really was only a 2-hour game. The charachters did the smart thing and ran! All-in-all I am quite happy. Now Dave and I get to start work on the setup for the next 'season' Purgatory: All The World's A Stage. With a little luck we will have the website up by the middle of January, which means was can start talking to those who want to resolve thier curent characters stories around then.

Peace At Last
November is (almost) over... and that means that I have two months of (nominal) quiet at work. The only thing pf note I need to concern myself with is the issue of replacing my assistant us at the end of the week. Now, under most cicumstances the 'Chicken Little' in me would start screaming "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" but given that it's so quiet I can take my time in interviewing and selecting my replacement. This also means that I will handpick my replacement and therefore will have the utmost confidence in thier ability to handle to tasks I will delegate... which will assist me in overcoming my significant 'control freak instinct'. Yay!

The Comment-less Wasteland
(sniffle) I want them fixed. (sniffle)

WTF?
Blogger ate my comments... I have no idea what happened. Last night I had comments, and today I don't. I didn't post. I didn't modify anything.... hmmm....

The 'Lemming' Effect



Pixie did it, then Raven did it. Call me a lemming!

But generally... although I think the surface one is a little too extreme in describing my idealism... I'd have to agree.

Murder
I wonder... If I killed somone who made me snap and actually lose it to the point of physical violence.... would I be committed? or jailed?

All The Worlds A Stage
I am really looking forward to the end of Purgatory: The Price of Indulgence not because I want it to end, but because I want to focus on the next story, Purgatory: All The World's A Stage. Which runs directly counter to my growing sense of wanderlust... it would be damned hard to run a game while on a cruise liner in the middle of the Caribbean. Calgary however, is doable, and although its in another city, it's only a three-hour drive from my friends in Edmonton.

Regardless, I have seen some of the patterns people intend to use for the next installment... and.... I WANT TO PLAY! :(

Status Report
Okay.... three posts in October is kinda bad... uhm... okay... alot bad... okay fine! It was inconsiderate!

The 'run of birthdays' is now over. I'm 26 now... and I don't think I feel any different than when I was 24. But I am feeling a bit of waderlust kicking in... I want to go somewhere and do something. I have a line on a Hotel Manager position for Holland America Cruise Lines, and I'll learn more about that option probably in March of next year. The other option, as my boss has stated repeatedly, is that once his contract is done in February he intends to return to a hotel in Calgary and he'll take me with him likely as his AGM, which means among other things, much more money and more experience in yet another brand and in another role. Or... I still have the thought, the distant thought, that perhaps I want to go back to school... but I have no idea what I want to take, and so right now I am complacent, and I'm comfortable with what I do now... and there is alot to be said for being comfortable in life.

PS - Comments about my lack of posting will encourage me to post more (HINT - Please kick me is the arse to post!)
