Time is of the essense.

swestrupTime is something I seem to have very little of, right now. It seems that there are dozens of demands upon my time, each of them important, and I have so little time right now that I have to dole it out in dribs and drabs.
I want to spend time with my friends; go bowling; share a beer at the Old Dublin pub; go to Hatterz for drunken debauchery; linger over coffee; or just get together for an evening playing cards or a board game. I want to spend time with all of my friends, both one-on-one so that I can get to know them better and in groups, to spread the fun. I want to do ALL these things and I don't really have time for any of them. If I go out on a any weekday but friday, I know I'll be working on short sleep the next day. This would be fine if I could catch it up during the week, but I can't.
There's not enough time to catch up my sleep because by the time I get home and eat supper, its already bedtime on a normal day. My health really suffered from chronic lack of sleep at my old job, and I've been fearing the same could happen here. After I'd been working there a while, I got stupid (which I knew was tiredness) and I started having a number of bothersome health problems which I put down to old age creeping up. Once I'd been unemployed for 6 months and had had enough sleep, it all went away. I don't want them back.
So, my friend Sandy wants me to get in on a business venture with her. I haven't been able to put more than 1/2 and hour towards doing research on it this week, and I did my damnedest to make the time. I may have to bow out, despite the fact that I WANT to do something like this with her.
I also told![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
_sps_ that I would put together a tiny RPG that he and a few other friends could play this weekend. I'm using some ideas that I had previously had for a game, and mixing them around, but I haven't had a chance to write anything down. Its all in my head. So, I don't know how organized this game is going to be, but I do seriously want to do some RPG stuff again, so I hope it goes okay. I would feel better if it wasn't in two days and I had anything more than a setting and a rough idea of 'what's really going on', which the characters are not even supposed to get HINTS of unless the game runs for a year or so...
