So my little girl turned three months old last week and that made her old enough to be able to come to the gym with me. More specifically to the childcare that CalFit offers and of course, the pool. Here in Sacramento it's hot as balls already and I've just had my first sunburn of the season. Gotta love being Irish and living in sunny, O-zone depleted California. Anyway, little Morgan did pretty good for her first time in the pool. Didn't know what the hell was going on at first but she got into it pretty quickly. We'll have her swimming like a fish in no time. And I'm getting back in shape again, was without a gym to go to for a good 6 months since we moved, been waiting for April 1st to come around for the new California Family Fitness to open up near our house. I hate being out of shape. Hate it. Months of playing WoW and then not having a gym was turning me into more of a doughynutcase, but that's over with.

I quit WoW in December before my daughter was born and haven't even considered playing it again. That alone has increased the quality of my life more than I thought possible. I know people who still play/love that game will mock me or think I'm just being a douche but that game is a poison. It changes everyone who plays it and never in a postive way. I've managed to get a couple people I used to play with to finally give it up and they love NOT playing WoW now. They actually go do things they enjoy doing and have much more energy and free-time. I'd urge anyone who stills plays to just walk away, sell your account and never look back. Rediscover the joy of casual gaming as opposed to career gaming where there's no payoff and no closure. I sold my account to some jackass for $500 and used that money towards my gym membership. It still blows my mind that some moron paid five-hundred dollars for my toons. And another $50 on top of that to transfer them to another server. And he already has a lv 70 Warrior in full Vengeful gear... he just wanted to see what playing as a Shaman was like... I feel a little bad enabling him like that, but if he's determined to throw his money away it might as well be in my direction, I definitely need the money. Well, that's my WoW rant and with that I'm done speaking about that game. I'm stepping down off my Epic High-Horse.

There's a couple comic-cons coming up in the next few months that I'm gonna have a table at and will be trying to sell some stuff. So I'll be busy trying to get stuff together for that. It's been slow going with taking care of my daughter all day so it's gonna be a grind finishing stuff up in time but I won't start getting stressed about it until the week of the first show.

Now, here's some pics of my ladies at the pool.

And some recent work:
