We finished a major project at work this past week - one that’s been a few years in the making. It would be nice to have some downtime now, but it’s just nonstop. I’ll probably be burning some vacation soon before I go crazy.

So what better way to finish a long week than with a long weekend? Darla and I spent Friday night with some friends at the new group hangout. We spent all afternoon on Saturday at softball practice. After a quick dinner, we headed to a park to play a couple hours of volleyball. Then we capped the night with a mental workout - Trivial Pursuit, Genii Edition (circa 1984). It’s tough answering questions about game show hosts from the 50’s and Soviet Russia.

Today was a recovery day. Church, family lunch, lots of recorded NBA All Star weekend TV… The real question is whether I’ll get a wakeup call from work tomorrow morning. I received two unwelcome calls last week, and I don’t want to repeat the pattern.

I miss e-mail from friends. Someone e-mail me and tell me what’s going on in your life. Or go on MySpace and leave me a comment. Or just leave a comment here. I could use some electronic interaction.

If you haven’t already, you should create your own nation at NationStates.net. It’s free and fun. You basically create your own nation and then govern it. Your nation will grow and you can see what type of government you have based on issues that arise in your nation.

I like it, but there are some things missing such as war, interacting with other nations, etc. So I decided to make my own version of that. I’m really stepping into an unknown world as far as political issues, etc. We’ll see what happens. I’ll keep you posted as to the progress of the game.

Don’t expect it anytime soon. I’m swamped.

WoW indeed.
