Out Too Late

Our Thursday game nights got put on hold for a couple weeks during the holidays. Last night was the first time in three weeks that we all got together, and it was good fun. We played Dungeons & Dragons till 11:00, and then we just sat around in the den talking about D&D and World of Warcraft until 12:30.

I love my game nights. It’s so much fun to hang out with my friends, play games, and talk about our hobbies. We guys communicate some through emails, but sitting around playing and talking face to face is really much better. It’s so fun, in fact, that nearly every time, I end up staying and talking much later than I should.

It’s a 40 minute drive back home, so staying till 12:30 means I don’t get home until after 1:00. Then I write this post, upload it, and it’s nearly 1:30 by the time I get in bed. Six o’clock comes early in the morning; it’s really dumb of me to stay so late.

But hanging out with friends, talking and playing is just so much fun. And now that job and family responsibilities restricts that time to just once a week (at most), I like to stretch the time out as long as possible. Oh for the teenage and college years when I could hang with my friends for hours a day, several days a week.
