First the questions…

• From experience the best way to deal with parcels is like everything else… “Hurry up and wait”
• The best leftovers from the fridge is fried chicken. All other things are best heated up before consumption.
• Organized events are good by me as they normally are just put on by the FLGS. Tournament play is a league beyond and tends to bring out the super competitive that thrive on just beating their opponents with the latest meta list and rubbing their opponents face in defeat to utterly destroy any joy from having played.
• Best stocking stuffer for a hobbyist depends on the hobbyist but to not throw yourself into buying something they have no interest in I’d put a blanket MicroMark catalog out there. Once the drool and the utterance of “Ooh ooh” end that’s a safe bet that a discussion about future purchases might best be had.
• A new book means looking at art, fluff, rules are most likely in that order. It builds up the atmosphere for the theater of the mind that the writers are trying to get players involved in.

Augh… stuck at work and losing my mind on a 12hr shift from 1400-0200 local time. Stoner rock is definitely my friend after watching my fill of other YouTube videos. I’ve already made my purchases for Black Friday on Thursday night after work since there is a wonderful time difference between Europe and the US. I’ve failed at staving off the shiny and will be expecting Kromlech, Brother Vinni, Kingdom Death, Litko and The Dice Shop all to be posting me orders of things that will make my hobby and gaming more interesting.

Right now I’m about ready to hit the sack but that’s in just about 2.5 hours. I’ve got plans for the when I’m finally able to get back onto the latest painting but it seems so far away with this schedule. Videos on painting and product reviews are good to pass time with as well if I can’t get to my humble hobby desk.

Letting my brain wander and floating in open mental space I think that there’s a bit of a revelation to be had (outside of the time stamp 38:08 track on the video I provide) I’ll make an early New Year’s pledge. Next Year I will send off at least 30%(if not more) of all the models I now own.

I’m not getting out of the hobby by any means, I’m going to whittle down my collection and not be a hoarder that has bare metal/resin lying around. It will be a challenge that I should audit but counting all my figures takes away from doing the work. Yes, big change…big change… it’ll make room for larger things and more detailed work.

This isn’t something I can blame later on drinking and not being in my right mind (though my mental health may get questioned by my particular tastes).

Ok everybody, starting next year I will keep all posted as far as progress.
