All work and no play.. maybe.. sometimes.
Maybe eventually I’ll get into actual fun gaming talk lol. Not this week though! I wanted to talk about what I’m playing and doing, but instead it turned into a 20 minute derailment on the mental roadblocks of being a stay at home dad and trying to carve out personal time.
It all needed to come off the chest though. And it’s laying down the foundation for future talks, so it’s not like I’m rambling for no reason.
The need to feel productive, to feel like you’re doing something has always been embedded in me. It’s just that lately - as in the past like 5 or 6 years hahaha - it’s been really hard to completely give into just enjoying myself. I’ll get into playing something and setting time aside for a week or two, but I’ll always have this silent alarm in my mind that goes off reminding me that I need to get off my ass and actually do something with myself.
I don’t know what it is. But I do know that I talked about it for 20 minutes! At least I managed to do one thing. In this episode I said I had a bunch of Instagram posts I wanted to publish. In between recording the episode and getting it out, I managed to do that! So if for some reason you’re listening to this but don’t know about my instagram account, go check it out! It’s family stuff but also nerdy things like movies and gaming. I also got listings up for new sticker sheets on my Etsy shop! So be sure to check those out too, especially with the sale I have going on.
That be that for this week. I have one more episode ready to go so look forward to another one next week! Been crazy with the storm so hopefully I’ll be able to record more after the weekend. I would love to tell you what to expect for the one already recorded but heck if I remember!
Until next time!
