Kudos for getting back into shape and mending relationships. No sarcasm. Good job. When I first moved in with my wife, she was my fiance then, I had to move 6 hours north and thus had to quit my job. After the move, I'd hop on the computer for maybe an hour to job hunt. The rest of the day, I'd be on Destiny. It was seriously irritating my wife. Eventually, I found a good job, that sounded really promising, and the phone interview, I felt, went well. Back to Destiny. A week went by and I heard back. Apparently the phone interview didn't go so well. I put Destiny down, and got serious about the job hunt. That afternoon, I sent out about 20 resumes. Two days later I had two places asking for phone interviews. One job I knew nothing about, but was right down the street, and the other was similar to a previous job I had that I wanted nothing to do with. But work was work. Smashed both phone interviews. Job B, the one I didn't care for, wanted me to start later that week. Job A, wanted me to come in for an in person interview. Started Job B. Job A wanted me to pee in a cup. Offer from Job A, walked out of Job B. Back to Destiny. I get maybe 2 hours a day with Destiny now, as when I get home from work I hang out with my family. My wife loves reading, so when she goes to read, I hop on the game. My wife has told me that pretty soon if I hadn't found a job, she was going to kick me out and leave me (we were still engaged at the time so it would have been much easier than if we had tied the knot). I too nearly took the path of letting the game rule my life. So, kudos to you for not letting it take you away from those you love and your health. (The story is not to compete with yours, but to establish a common bond).
