Why aren't you in game anymore?
Monday: "I've got D&D."
Wednesday: "I've got Shadowrun."
Weekends: "I'm not going to tell my family 'No, I can't help you. I've got a Hamidon Raid to attend." so I might not be around.
This past Sunday: "I actually was doing something really fun on the 13th. I acted a scene for my mother's Director's Workshop and impressed her teacher with my performance! He called me a bright light in an otherwise gloomy day! "
My Stories
Look at that. A full-grown woman pulling off pigtails. Her crazy is off the charts.
Computer that runs it is down plus the wife doesn't like that I spend the $15 a month on it, but still sneak some in here and there.

Weekdays I get up at 6, work till 2, *sleep for 1-3 hours, wake up and eat dinner, spend time with the family, then get maybe 1 or 2 hours in game before I go to sleep at 10 and struggle to sleep until 6. *(If I could stay awake all day, I'd probably sleep better at night. But golly, 6 is early.)
I still play quite a bit on weekends.
My wife and a work friend have drug me off to play a recently launched 4 letter title MMO style game with them. It's ok, but I'm having trouble getting into it.

I currently have two internet choices: A horribly slow one that makes it nearly impossible to play, and very frustrating and unfun, or a faster one with very limited time. If I run out of time, I can't play at all. So.... I just can't get online as much as I used to.
-My real life outside the computer (game/online/etc) is very busy and full.
-Game got boring when everyone I normally play with left for other things and I kept running into the same old drama(s) over and over and over again.
-Found other games that I enjoy much more (when I AM online) since I'm playing alone anyway.
come back wolfieeeeeeeee !
playing alone is no fun... unless its Plants V. Zombies
also hi!
studying,going out to movies, sex, drinking, clubbing, reading. These things keep me out of the game, but still on lots.

Moved in with my GF-my desktop is upstairs-GF doesn't climb stairs-my laptop crashes with I play. I have to beg and plead to play for a hour or two once a week when she is up, or I get a hour or two of sleep and sneak up there while she is sleeping. GF aggro ain't fun.
I am taking my sig to MWO and MWT. Let them wonder what it means.
Would you believe I'm not in game as often anymore because I've actually developed a work ethic?
Shocking, I know. I'll wait until you can reattach your jaws...

As for me: Real Life as well.
Get up at 5 AM to go to work, get home around 5:30 PM, dinner, chores, fall asleep by 8 PM. Rinse and repeat Monday thru Friday.
Week-ends are divided not at all equally between my various hobbies: PnP RPGs, maintenance of my ginormous Comic Book collection (*), trying different flavors of Linuxes and OSSes, and CoH.
Also, I must confess that the recent changes to the game (ex. Incarnates) is acting more like a deterrent than an enticing factor to me at the moment. I don't like grinding or crafting or repeating the same content over and over and over again, so I tend to keep to myself and solo stuff whenever I'm online.
I know, I'm weird that way...
(*) I've bought in average 16 books a week for the past 25 years, and I kept a good 99% of them - you do the math.

1) Paisley, who doesn't like it when I am on the computer and finds creative and exciting ways to
- a) poop in the computer room
- b) run around like a maniac and chew on my toes
- c) be amazingly cute and demand attention and give kisses
2) Playing that OTHER MMO with real life friends and enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would. Wow, who would have guessed!
3) Work, work, work and more work.
4) Any time I log in, there's no one around
5) I just found my cd copy of Zeus, and am enjoying creating civilizations there all over again.
You can always catch me on FB or Twitter - or my email addy if it's important.
I don't have to explain myself to you people.

M-F get up at 6:30, depending on traffic and weather 1-2hr drive to work so I generally make it home about 7:30-8pm, then dinner. That up at 6:30am means that I can no longer play until 1-2am.
Weekends, I gt to take care of things I couldn't during the week so that I find that I'm still not getting on until the late evening.
Two things:
1. I am looking for additional work right now, as I only have one part time job.
2. My gaming time is currently on a different MMO with my wife, as I am also trying to catch up to her in levels on that game. :P
I'm waiting for something to once again rekindle my interest... I always come back... always. :P
The end of one story always marks the beginning of another...
I am still in game, but...
I'm also writing like crazy, and often enough notice that it's like 2 in the morning by the time I'm done.
>_> only other games I'm playing are fear and hl2, shortly portal2, so ... get back to it.
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!

Because I'm busy playing CoH.... oh wait.
If somebody you're arguing with goes off the deep end, don't follow.

I'm not in-game or forum brousing as much as I did due to only having one comp that is split between work & hubby & me. I am also looking for more work... *sigh*
Saturday night around 7 p.m. CST (and going to whenever I get tired) is usually my time on for the whole week - so I hope to see/hear from all y'all then

If you take time to help others, you help yourself grow.
If you take time to help yourself, you realize how far you have to go.
If you take time for chocolate . . . you've discovered the secret to a happy life !
GL & be safe in game & real life!

Monday: Because we are coming off a weekend I have so many people that have forgotten how to use a computer I really need to blow off steam. So I stay out of game and do personal stuff.
Tuesday: The first day of the new "Weekly Strike Force" I am in game standing next to the contact hoping that someone sees that I am there and wants my current Archetype for their attempt.
Wednesday: Mid-week blow off, for 9 years I have been visiting friends and commiserating over wine.
Thursday: Another attempt at the "Weekly Strike Force" and standing around the contact.
Friday: I get off work (Feb-May) at Noon, I get something to eat, pay bills, talk with family. But around 2 PM Central, once again I am standing by the contact for the "Weekly Strike Force".
Saturday: I am in game at around 9 AM Central. This is, with exception of family things, my day to game.
Sunday: Again, since I have no dependents or responsibilities, I get into game around 9 AM Central.
There you go.
Sometimes, I impress my boss. Sometimes, I impress myself. The rest of the time, I scare people. I can live with that.
