So it's been three weeks for me. I can honestly say that every day I am a bit more proud than the last. What has changed in real life? Not a WHOLE lot. I spend a lot more time reading. More time on the treadmill. Barely any time in front of the computer. Any time I'm in front of the computer I find "friends" from WoW messaging me, asking when I'm coming back, if I will reinstall to help them with something, if they can have my account. I didn't delete my account. I did let it expire on its own. I reformatted my computer and didn't reinstall the game. I find it more gratifying to know that I can access the game but choose not to. So thanks to all my DS friends out there and everyone with a struggle who shared it around here. All of that aided in my road out of Warcraft land. Pretty much four years wasted to that game. At least it isn't going to steal anymore from me.
