I am sure some of you readers out there in the blogosphere think that having a blog is easy. Well, it ain't as easy as it seems. I only blog whilst at work, because that's how I roll. I also work the hours that I am least creative (not due to careful planning as some of you might think, but due to conventional work hours, I am most creative during the hours between 11 pm and 1 am), and the period of time when I can blog at work occurs at my least creative time of the day at work, sometimes referred to as "morning." So blogging in the morning is not that conducive to me getting a witty post rolling through the interweb at high speeds, but that is the only time I can really get to this shtick. Oh well, deal with it...
So, it turns out that not only do I have a finite amount of knowledge I can store in my addlepated head about any one person in particular, I also have a finite amount of space in my brain for shoving game related skills into. For example, one time I found out the name of this guys father (funny story: turns out, oddly enough, the guy's father's name was Guy, go figure) and I promptly forgot his last name. And to the reason for telling you my certain lack of mental capacity has to do with the gaming aspect of this certain space limitation in my gray matter. With more playing of World of Warcraft and the eventual addition of abilities and skills within the game, I have lost my marginal ability to play Spider Solitaire, almost entirely. It is gone. Gone I tell you. Opening up a game of 2 suit spider used to be money in the bank. Win after win after win. I used to abhor not having a pattern left with the stacked cards at the end, and only tolerated when it was red, black, red, black, red, black, etc... But, alas and alack, my spider abilities have seemed to diminish. Now I might win every 10th game or so. How the mighty have fallen. On the other hand, I can kill a quillboar in 2 swings, Boo-Yah!!!!
