LB log - 2014 Week 45

Rate this Entry
Dentist visit was made and proved to be very much necessary. A molar at the top, rear, and left side of the mouth had a huge cavity and was on its way to rotting entirely out. I have an appointment to get a root canal and crown in two stages, the first of which will be this Monday. They did a partial procedure already to stop the flareups and their work was very quick and direct. Shots to the gums were effortless, and they wasted no effort or time in scraping any garbage they could find on my teeth. I could see some remains of the carnage by the blood splatter left on the surfaces (liners? not really a paper towel...), but they didn't flinch in giving me what I needed. It had to be done. I walked away feeling groggy, but better.

I could not keep my hands on a tractor throughout this week of work. One switched to another with nearly each day and I ultimately spent $800 on fuel for two different vehicles during the week; the first of which I had to do at the start of the route run because they left me with a tractor that had less than an eighth of fuel in it.

A conversation with my mother about recommending a place to do an oil change resulted in me paying a visit to their place today so that I could see it done myself. The visit lasted three hours, in part because I purchased the wrong filter (despite looking up information on my phone to try to make the right choice) and Dad going out to get another one.

I'm writing this here in hopes of purging it from my mind. A few weeks ago, I sent some friends some items in Diablo 3. They have played Destiny consistently since its launch, and were playing FF14 before and after that point. I played PS3 D3 with them fairly consistently for a month, and ROS a handful of times at most. I sent them both nearly full sets for their characters. All items were returned to me after a two week delay, and no word of communication from them before or after this occurrence. On one hand, Destiny and FF14 are also other massive time sinks which don't leave room for much else to be played, and there are more of their friends playing those games than just me on D3. On the other hand, I can't help but feel a bit perturbed by this action. They could have just kept them and even destroyed them without telling me anything and remain never playing D3 again. That wouldn't have even made me notice. They didn't have full inventories. There was no reason that they had to send those things back to me. But they did. Silently. So what am I supposed to make of it? Now all future conversation is going to be awkward with them, at least in the context of anything related to games. Beyond that, they have no reason to speak with me, as they really haven't bothered to do so for months now. It seems that my refusal to follow them in playing either game (or at least Destiny in particular) could lead to me never speaking with either person for many more months to come, if at all. This consequence is absurd, but I don't foresee it being any different. It's not worth confronting them directly about what they have chosen to do within a context of a video game, because that's ultimately irrelevant. It's a game. Who cares. But once that's ignored, where else is there to go? Alternatively, I could just buy Destiny and slog through playing it as I did with Borderlands 2, but that game collecting dust on the shelf - exactly as I envisioned it doing - is part of what's keeping me from following them now. My work weeks are very long now. My free time is short. My budget is limited. I don't have the kind of free time and money to spend on playing games that I don't particularly want to play. Yet is it that stance which ultimately kills my relationship with them? If trends continue as they have, it appears I have the answer - and that answer depresses me. It didn't have to be like this. Especially over video games, of all the things. I just don't have that kind of free time. I don't.

Speaking of video games, song sessions felt rather good throughout the week. I feel like I'm more motivated to play now than I have been in the past. Perhaps the specter of another arcade visit helps this sentiment. I missed last week, and I'm going to do my utmost to rectify that this week. The machine is so close. I can't let the chance pass me by.
