Making time to play?
How do you guys find time to play?
I am 30, started playing EQ in my teens when time was abundant. Im sure this is the same case as many of you. Loved the game and even then 12+ hour gaming sessions felt too short. But now my time is limited to a few hours a month. I work 5-6 days a week 11-12 hours a day. Generally by the time I make dinner and clean up there isnt really time to do anything else. Plus my anti-gaming girlfriend hates when I play and she works less than me so its rare that I have any time alone at home to play a game or something. I have a BA in Biology which i have discovered is basically useless only landing me the crappy paying lab tech job I have now. What kind of jobs do you guys have that would allow you to play at work? I know a few IT people that play games at work but that isnt really my field. What time management methods do you all use to make time to play? It may sound pathetic that I am trying to figure out a way to get this game back in my life more but it really makes me happy. | ||

You should also stop communicating with friends and family. Once you get those time wasters off your hands, working 9am-5pm still lets you play from 5:15pm-2am+ before you need to head to sleep and get up for work.

I normally play a few hours at night before I go to bed. Then I go to sleep and play a bit more in my dreams. I then wake up, start working and play while I'm daydreaming. Find some time to eat in between and then before I go to sleep at night I finally log on to play [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I was 29 when EQ came out, and I still managed to play about 5 hours per night... and "raise" a kid. Never worked more than 40 per week though. That's your main hurdle, right there.
Unless you want to ditch the girlfriend... which I'm sure you don't want.

Play at work like I do, problem solved! Just note you can't group or raid or even solo farm a cash camp cause you'll be semi afk the whole time!
Wife + newborn and 50hr/week here, poopie diapers > socks
