Friends I apologize for not having been on here and not posting sooner.
I "disappeared" for about 5 weeks. Did some soul searching. My niece gave birth to a healthy baby girl. I've been dealing with some challenges, some at work, some with family. We had yet another death in our family, my wife's brother, on October 30th after being in a coma for 10 days.
The passion, spark and desire that fueled me with a love of game shows just seems to not be with me right now, not just with net games, but with actual game shows.
We recently got the BUZZR channel, and I've not even felt the urge to watch that at all. I'm not sure if this is a mid-life crisis I'm experiencing or what. I just know that for the past 5 weeks plus, there hasn't been any game show passion inside of me whatsoever.
I don't know if this is a temporary thing or not, but this is indeed the longest such a lull in my interest and desire has ever lasted throughout the first 48 years and 11 months of my life span.
So for the time being, I am stepping down from the boards. I gave it 5 weeks, and nothing sparked inside of me. Our hearts are heavy with the untimely passing of my brother in law, who was just 56, and suddenly fell asleep and was unresponsive. He remained in a coma for 11 days, and finally his life support was turned off on Friday, October 30th. He passed away within 2 hours after his life support was turned off.
Right now I feel too bogged down I guess emotionally, concerns about the future of the nation, concerns about the future of my job, my physical health, although I feel okay right now, I have experienced a great deal of fatigue which coincided with my October 2nd "disappearance".
I don't believe it's depression as I am in relatively high spirits, and other things do bring me a lot of joy and passion. Just with game shows right now, I've plum run out of steam. Again this may be temporary, it may be permanent. I don't know as yet.
Meantime I wish you all well with your games, and your lives and the challenges each of you take on each and every day. I wish you all a very happy and joyous upcoming holiday season too.
Best to you all,
Bill
