Go to the Up

Class starts tomorrow due to the holiday on monday. I have spent the few remaining hours over the last week beta testing a new mmorpg Vanguard. It is pretty neat. A combination of EQ2, WOW and a few other games with some new things thrown in. Diplomacy and the ability to influence citys. Cool stuff. I think I will end up playing this to burn away the few free hours that I can scrape together between work and school.

I have always had terrible sinus problems for as long as I can remember. I have constant congestion and blockage in the right side of my face. It almost never clears up. On bad days it drains constantly and my eyes feel all mucusy. I have pretty much had it and have decided to visit a ear, eyes, and throat doctor and see what he suggests. I am pretty sure that it is going to end up being a deviated septum problem. I can see that my septum is bent at a pretty good angle to the left and would likely require surgery to correct. I am at the point where I would be willing to entertain drilling a hole in my head if it would grant me relief. I bet my sleeping would be a whole lot better if I could breathe easily through my nose. I am going to call the doctor's office in a bit and get myself an appointment set up.

I have been feeling a bit down lately and am starting to consider quitting the D&D group. I am reluctant to do so simply because that is most of the socializing that I do. Without the game group I will end up at home playing some computer game or reading a book by myself. I hate that idea. However I am beginning to dislike D&D night. Last week we ended up not really playing the game at all and I had more fun that session than I have had in a while. It feels similar to the early stages of what I was going through with my previous group where I eventually quit and stopped playing for quite some time. Maybe I just need to take a break and do something different for a change.
