As I write this, I am eating chocolate cake for breakfast... and it makes me wonder how long it has been since I did that. Up until a couple years ago I used to really love sweet stuff, but then my tolerance for it fell off. I wouldn't say this was a bad thing however.

It's actually not so bad right now either because its only part of a piece of chocolate cake. The rest of it I had last night for dinner. Another thing I haven't done in ages. But then, I was also sitting in a fern bar with a friend I hadn't really hung out with for long enough that I feel guilty about it.

I guess I've just been busy with other things, not that that is a great excuse. We arrived there at like 9 in the evening and by the time we left it was after midnight. We then drove back to her place and proceeded to talk until four in the morning. It has certainly been years since something like that happened.

What's really scary is the idea I got after listening to her talk about EverQuest and how she was starting to get bored with it. She was showing the exact same symptoms as I had however long ago it was that I quit. But so then, this evil stupid thought entered my head: Hey. Shannon has two accounts, because one of her friends quit and gave it to her. It has a higher level bard on it then even my old character. I could log into that account every now and then and we could play together.

ARGGGGG! What was I thinking?? Me? Playing Everquest again? I loathed that game towards the end when I finally quit and now I might start playing it again "every now and then?" I do greatly miss having a MMORPG to play... but EverQuest? I just don't know about that. Maybe it would be different because I would only be playing it to be with Shannon. And it is an undeniable truth that what makes a game like that fun after all the novelty has worn off is the friendships you make and maintain. So I don't know. It may very well be that I will get all the software reinstalled on my machine, log in and go: "Ugh. I really hate this game," and log off. I just don't know. Because on the other hand, it might be a fun option to have available since I wouldn't be paying for it and in limited doses, it might be quite pleasant again.

Okay, I can't eat any more of this chocolate cake. It's going back into the refrigerator.
