But I've averaged about 3 books per week, about 10 hours of volleyball and another 10 of training... oh, and about 1 blog post per day (or more). Unless I try the Eliade trick of reducing my sleep by going to bed 10 minutes later and waking up 10 minutes earlier every day, until I get to 4 hours per night I doubt I can fit any gaming in. But as the winter months approach gaming may look tempting again. So, I could feel guilty about a lot of things, but I feel pretty smart and fit instead ;P</p> I haven’t gamed in about 2 months, sigh… But I’ve averaged about 3 books per week, about 10 hours of volleyball and another 10 of training… oh, and about 1 blog post per day (or more).

At the core of this is guilt. Where does it come from? We live in a society where spend 4 hours per day watching TV is nothing. Mormons can spend upwards of 35+ hours per week on faith-related activities. And this is preferred to gaming? Priorities people. :P Very good reasons, I think. At the core of this is guilt.
