So, the hubby has this MMORPG that he has played for years. While we were dating, he would play on and off so that way he would spend more time with me than the game (why are games so addicting? Staying on track). So we when we got married, we decided it would be better to not play because 1) we should spend free time together (which is why we have no cable) and 2) I refuse to pay a monthly fee. $15 doesn't seem a lot, but it could be better spent elsewhere.

Anyway, so for xmas the SO got the new expansion and game cards, so now it's up and running again. Only this time the agreement is that I have to play too, so that way we could enjoy it together. I've never played MMOs, because I'm not much of a gamer, and they never hold my interest long enough. RPGs in general usually have such long quests and missions that I'm easily bored and want to do something else. But I have to admit that so far this game has taken my interest. I could see how he could spend hours at a time playing (which oddly enough, I do just the same with RP, no?). Only, I have a hard time playing without him being around, because everything seems to be so complicated that I always need help. Which is another reason why I don't play such games - rules are irritating.

Anyway, we'll see how this goes. We only have four months before the game cards are out and no more game until probably his birthday, which is in June.
