So... I guess I've pretty much retired. I did login once a month or so ago and had a nice chat with some old friends. The drive just wasn't there. I was kinda wanting to post a retirement message but it seems so... cliche, for lack of a better word. Ya know, burn out and not fade away kinda thing.
I still play online games, though. Battlefield, Neverwinter, blah blah blah. Just haven't wanted to play any EQ for quite some time.
Dave... er um... Myyrth, (Probably haven't seen him in ages too since he playes his damn druid all the time now), AKA Szygy, AKA Mileaux has asked me to hand over my account to him. So Dave, call me and I'll give you the login info. But you ain't using my credit card, bish. Just don't strip my toons naked, dude. I might be back some day and I'll be pissed if they ain't got no clothes on. Fair warning.
For those few of you earlier day Walkers that remember me and wanna know wtf happened to me. Well, suffice it to say, I moved on. I've had this itch since I was a kid that has been needing scratching for quite a long time. The itch, my friends, is flight. Always wanted to fly. And at 33 years of age, I bit the bullet. Got my first class medical certificate, took out a hefty student loan and signed up at a real class act flight school in Broomfield. That's Colorado. McAir Aviation, to be exact. Rated #3 in the world in Cessna flight training schools.
I'm only a few lessons into it right now. But I'm on my way to a Private Pilot certificate followed by Instrument Rating and then Dual Engine. Not sure yet if I want to make a career change. After all, I'm looking at about a $35k/year salary cut if I do. Long road ahead. I'll be flying mostly on weekends and maybe once during the week. I'm looking at about a year and a half to two years before I get all that crap done.
For all my friends in Colorado... keep an eye on the sky. I know where some of you live, and don't think for a second that it's beyond me to drop a soda bottle full of piss right on your house from 8000 feet AGL.
I think about you guys a lot. I'll probably be checking WOW out whenever the fuck they decide to make the public release. And most likely I'll try out EQ2 for a little while. So keep an eye out for me and I'll keep an eye out for you.
