Got some games...Getting some mo'....

Well in the wake of the shit storm that was the other day I felt the need to get lost in some digital worlds. I picked up GT5 Prologue, The Club, RB6 Vegas (PSP), Ratchet & Clank (PS3), The World Ends With You, and Okami (Wii). I will be getting Mario Kart this weekend as well. Next week I will be getting GTA4. And in May I will be getting Wii Fit and Boom Blocks. That should do it I guess.

Anyway, I went from the emotional floor to the emotional ceiling in the last week. I am now on a huge up emotionally and I really don't know how to deal. I am really talkative and tough to be around. My wife tells me I am very "intense". This will easily be my sticking point in therapy. I have a meeting with the only drug doc to see where my dose should be at. I think that I am getting used to the dose and might need more because I am really up and down again. Hopefully we can get the right dose and sort this out. I am still much better than I was and that feels good. Even my wife said I was doing much better. That has never happened.

On the work front, I started talking to the content creation department where I work so I actually get a job creating content (which would be in my major). That is a huge step for me as I never step out of my comfort zone to do that. So chalk up another personal stride there.

Finally, I had my birthday over the weekend and I had a great time. I had a party on Friday with the in-laws and it was amazing. The best part of the part was with my nephew and nieces. I showed my nephew some of the work that I have done with Rag Doll stuff in 3D Max. We set up some funny scenes. I got to play in the yard with my nieces too. It was so relaxing. My wife got me a sweet back back for my art stuff, some sketch pads, some drawing books so I can work on different styles, and a really nice set of markers. She really got me a bunch of stuff that I would have picked out myself and that really felt good. That was really special.

Then, on Saturday, my Mom and Step father came down to see me. My mom got me a Philly Eagles recliner and some small stuff that only she would find. She also brought down some food that she knows that I love. We watched the Flyers and Phillies lose but we enjoyed the games. After the drama that consumed me that I discussed in the last post, the weekend really turned it around. I can honestly say this was the best birthday that I had in a really, really long time.
