That my current players are 30+ years younger than me won't end it either...<br />Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10231423670489116607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-15804738740461806762013-09-28T12:22:08.414-06:002013-09-28T12:22:08.414-06:00Yeah, I kind of accepted I'm just a hopeless g...Yeah, I kind of accepted I'm just a hopeless gamer.

Love, family, and career haven't yet drawn me away, If anything the richer my life elsewhere the richer my gaming becomes. <br />Chess occupies some folks for their entire lives, D&D and RPG offer a lot more then 32 pieces dancing in 64 squares.<br />I don't see an end in sight just subtle transformation.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-41507913800137687772013-09-27T18:04:46.881-06:002013-09-27T18:04:46.881-06:00Real nice, Alexis.

What am I supposed to think?<br /><br />In regards to the content then, I don't have a fallback for when I'll have to bow out of the game. I imagine it will come right atop a heap of other realizations about what I'm utterly unable to do at that time of my life any longer.<br /><br />I'll watch a host of potential experiences slip through my increasingly aching fingers, and while at first the escapism of D&D will offer me solace, one day I'll resent it as a reminder of the host of ways in which my body and mind have begun to fail me.<br /><br />Or you know, maybe I die early by slipping on a d20 someone left on the floor. Either/or. I don't imagine I'll regret the time I've spent on the endeavor.Pandredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03917809464727878157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-7695791684660782672013-09-27T15:32:51.955-06:002013-09-27T15:32:51.955-06:00After my daughter was born, that effectively ended...After my daughter was born, that effectively ended my D&D playing... for now. I've had several ends happen. My group moved away/disintegrated, we graduated from college, I moved to a new town. I've always had the opportunity come along to pick it back up again, and I've always been willing to do so. I may one day lose all enthusiasm for D&D, but it hasn't happened yet. I've wished I was still with the online group everytime I stop in to see how they're doing.Nine-toeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08557340886948730786noreply@blogger.com
