The secret is embedded within. With all that going on, I have no life outside of my life – meaning I am home most nights. As my TV viewing is way down (just The Office, Lost, 24 (if a good season) and Friday Night Lights) – I spend my leisure time gaming.

I’m actually getting a bit discouraged. I used to pwn these games and now I feel more and more like a n00b. Case in point – Devil May Cry 4, whose difficulty assaulted me. I have a feeling I may have done better (and stuck with it) a few years back.

And I won’t even talk about online multiplayer where I get my a$$ handed to me consistently? It gets frustrating.

I think that’s why my interests (the games that I really dig) tend to run closer to the adventure/puzzle/platformer games lately. I still feel like I can keep up with those.

But – yeah – I’m feeling old and it sucks. I’m sick of the teabagging.
