The 12 Year Plan

elderock67elderock67 Member Posts: 66 Arc User
edited May 2013 in General Discussion (PC)
12 years ago- Find a job to work my way up that will allow me to schedule my days off

11 Years ago - Marry a woman that appreciates my gaming, but doesn't game herself

10-5 years ago - produce 3 children (gender unimportant)

3 weeks ago - Look at schedule of early release and ensure you are off on the Hero launch.

2 weeks ago - tell wife that you are buying the $60 guardian pack.

2 days later - tell wife that they have a $200 pack that lets you play 2 days earlier than the guardian, but you just cant justify spending that much money

10 minutes after telling wife that - Wife state's "So your off that thursday and other people will be online but you wont. So now i will have to hear you whine and complain that you cant play for two more days. Just go buy the more expensive pack"

3 minutes after conversation with wife - Purchase Hero of the North founders pack

Day before launch - Head out to buy a sundry of snacks (chips/salsa, pizza bites, 2 bags of peanut butter fudge batter (for wife to bake), 12 pack of cream soda, 6 pack of Dos Equis (after all i'm the most interesting man on this forum currently), and whatever else ends up in the basket.

Spend 4 hours on forums making sure nothing is new that i need to watch,read, listen or post.

Ensure a solid 9 hours of sleep, waking up 2 hours prior to launch

Take shower and groom self really well (understanding it may have to last for 2 days)

Ask wife to make you breakfast

After rolling of the eyes, run up to McDonalds and get a #11 with medium coffee (2 cream - 2 sugar)

Clean Man Cave (i know, if the kids all have computers in the room it doesn't really count as a "man cave" but let me dream for a sec) furiously for the next 20 minutes - ensure all items are clean and do a quick restart on computer to ensure everything is up to date.

Train 9 year old son on how the basic's work in the game - Appoint him as /AFK BIO captain

Have wife bake the first batch of fudge

Tell the children not to eat it

Appoint the 5 year old girl to tell me if her two older brothers eat any of dad's fudge.

Find out 2 older brothers bribed younger sister with larger portion of fudge.

Have wife bake 2nd batch.

Commense to 48 hours of Neverwinter gaming!

    I can empathize with the finding of the wife that "doesn't game herself".

    I found one that enjoys her cigarettes and booze. As long as she leaves me alone during my Gaming, it is wedded bliss.

    ...at least...as long as the cigarettes and booze last...

    (*hops in car and heads out to local Friar Tuck's for some cig cartons and a nice couple o' cases of happy water for the wifey-poo*)

    Better re-check step 13. says "Ask wife to make you breakfast."

    May wanna change that to "Ask wife to make ME breakfast.", I mean unless u want your wife to make me breakfast. Totally ok with that.
    My obvious charms and god-like powers always dazzle the simple, ordinary folk.

    Sometime post-HotN launch :: Go for a well needed bio-break only to come back and see your wife sitting at your throne playing your character better than you!

    Sometime after that :: Rage-Quit the game and leave your account to her.

    :cool:
