He has no mouth and wants to scream...

Ok, for the good aspects of today, I'm watching Baby Blues right now on that Cartoon Network Adult Swim thing, and my word, it's actually funny, and well-animated. Not going to argue with that.

As for me, I should explain, for those not in the know. I am a player on a few online Role-Playing Games. I like it, I've been told I'm pretty good at it, and it's something I'm interested in. I have a few characters roaming around, which I play.

On January 1st, I took a break from online gaming, due to a massive amount of stress on my part. I've been feeling totally empty when I roleplay. It's that feeling I get, one of total unfulfillment, like I'm not getting out of it nearly as much as I put into it. Like my job, my friendships, and my Christmas Shopping.

The break is meant to be for a month, which gives me til the end of next week, and I've been holding up pretty well. Sometimes, after I've done my usual stuff, I find myself at a loss of what to do next, but I've been all right in general.

Except for this one problem: I have a new character idea. For those in the know, it's another Garou.

It's a new idea, and I've been having it run around in my head for the last few weeks. Been coming up with more of his personality and history every day, and I can easily hammer out a good-sized application for whatever game I want to play him in on a regular basis. It's a cool character! He's fun, he has his quirks, and I think this might recharge my batteries some, role-play wise.

Though, I have to admit, there's things in the character history that I have yet to flesh out which need fleshing out RSN. I can do it. And, you know, I am good at this. I have a lot of fun writing stotries, even though some of you might not like others I've written. ;) Tough. I'm good at those stories, too.

My main problem is the following: I have no place to play him. I prefer MUSHes (real-time online gaming) as opposed to Bulletein Boards, simply because of that little streak if immediate gratification I tend to get. But, the two places I know of who have Garou characters and have a high-quality playerbase, I'm already on, and can't fit my character in, because the characters I have now are needed.

I haven't been sleeping well as it is, and I find myself often wondering what playing the character will be like. My imagination is vivid enough, and mentally playing out these scenes is just not helping. I do that to myself, I admit. I'm feeling...stuck. I mean, when I took my break from online gaming, I was supposed to put the car in Park.

But the gears are still turning. Shit...

Hey, if you know, help! :)
