How long have you been exercising and have you noticed good results so far? I must admit that I have noticed that every so often you post your progress, which makes me think that you are taking this quite seriously. I must admit that I am a little envious. I constantly come across people on the internet who talk about the benefits of exercising and I bet what they say is true.
>You wouldn't be the first person to switch
I'm afraid it's a little late for that. I'm nearing the end of my degree, so I guess the best thing to do would be to keep working on that for another year. I make some money drawing, but it's really not that much. I don't know if I dedication or better social skills, but I can't find a way to earn as much money as other artists (anyway, I'm not that good at drawing, to be honest).

Hard to say, I should've written it down. Maybe started at 30 or 32 and I'll be 34 this year. Been taking it slow and fallen off more than a few times. My arms and legs are bigger, somewhat defined. I've gained weight, eat larger portions, but my belly may have shrunk a little because I think my navel isn't as deep. 5'8", 190 lb. Losing weight isn't my goal. Gaining strength and endurance is my goal. Provided I haven't went too long without exercise, I don't pull my leg muscle stretching in bed. That used to happen often, occasionally multiple times if the first wasn't bad enough to fully wake me up, and be limping for days after. It still happens if I cough very hard while seated. My ankle locks up occasionally, has happened on the stairs while carrying weight, but I can recover my footing now, whereas in the past it caused me to kick a chair and break my toe. I would say I'm on the brink of serious, getting proper weights and doing some real heavy lifting will be taking it seriously.
>I must admit that I am a little envious. I constantly come across people on the internet who talk about the benefits of exercising and I bet what they say is true.
Stop being envious and start doing. Any small amount puts you ahead of where you were previously. It's much easier than programming and drawing, and takes little time to exhaust your muscles. I'm still depressed and low energy. Maybe less so, maybe not, but at least I'm stronger. Humans are very weak and inefficient. Without inventions, which most of us (myself included) don't deeply understand, we're inferior to all other animals because we exist with the bare minimum of physicality and zero primitive knowledge. You don't have to become a strongman, just fight off frailty. For too long I neglected my mind and my body.
>I'm afraid it's a little late for that. I'm nearing the end of my degree, so I guess the best thing to do would be to keep working on that for another year. I make some money drawing, but it's really not that much.
Then don't worry about passion and don't doubt yourself. That's great. You can focus on programming while drawing on the side, and if you ever hit it big switch focus to drawing, or combine them and do visual novels or games. They're good complimentary skills. You don't have to make the next big thing, maybe you will, but one moderate success could snowball into a series of modest successes and a comfortable, happy life.
>I don't know if I dedication or better social skills, but I can't find a way to earn as much money as other artists (anyway, I'm not that good at drawing, to be honest).
I pay less attention to online art circles than in the past, but browsing 4chan archives I've seen mentioned some popular twitter artists with drawings that range from shit to meh. Dedication, socialization, pandering, shilling, trend chasing, quantity over quality (within reason). The biggest ingredient is luck. Most people won't admit the importance of luck because they think it diminishes the hard work required to develop skill. "I got to where I am entirely by my own willpower." Not my thing, but an artist making loads of vtuber fanart before it exploded in popularity would've been likely to catch that wave and be propelled to popularity himself. It's luck to get in before. It's luck to stand out after. It's luck to be noticed by or befriend someone already popular willing to actually try using his success to help you succeed.

I did something terriblly stupid today.
Since my sister had to got to work and my niece accompanied my mother to dialysis, I was home alone with our dog and cat. I had breakfast, washed some dishes, cleaned some things and ironed some clothes. After that, I decided to take a bath and shave. While I was shaving, I heard something, but since my dog didn't react to the noise, I assumed it was my imagination. Soon after, I heard another noise, so I decided to go investigate. That's when I saw a thief coming from my older sister's room. It was a tanned man between 45 and 50 years old, relatively well-dressed; he looked nervous.
To be honest, I didn't know how to react; I was shirtless, without my glasses and with shaving cream on my face. He told me that he didn't steal anything and that he just wanted something to feed his children. That's when I did the stupidest thing I could do: I went to get some bread for the guy. I don't know why I did it. Maybe I thought it was better to please him in case he was crazy? When I returned with some bread, I saw how he escaped through a window using a wire as a rope. For some reason, I threw him the bread to take it. He thanked me on his knees.
I looked at the rooms where he was and found a big mess. Luckily, it seems that the only thing he stole were some eggs. I told my family about it and they took it well, but I bet this only gives them more reason to see me as a child. Anyway, I can't deny that I didn't act as I should have.

>>2329
It seems really silly but I imagine I would probably do the same sort of thing. Just don't have the right reactions to things. At least you didn't get hurt or anything.

>At least you didn't get hurt or anything
That's what my family said. To be honest, at first I felt like they were treating me like a little kid, but now I understand that this is the natural reaction to a robbery.
By the way, the thief didn't just take some eggs. My older sister went through her room and didn't find her jewelry box, where her jewelry and her daughter's jewelry were. I know it wasn't my fault, but I can't help but feel bad.

>>2331
I guess thieves have to be quite crafty and able to prey on people's goodwill to get by. Having some dumb story about only looking for food might work well-enough on well-meaning people to let him escape.
I don't really know what to say about feeling like you're being treated like a kid because I often feel the same way, and not just from my family. I think there is just something missing and people can somehow automatically tell that I'm incapable of taking the lead on anything.

It's already getting hot here. It sucks. I'm no good with heat.

I've been trying to get into metal again, but I often have trouble differentiating one song from another. And I'm not even listening to some particularly weird or extreme band, but Sodom. Maybe I'm just not paying enough attention.
>>2335
That's a really nice image. I thought it was a photo at first, but when I zoomed in on it, I could see that it was a digital illustration. And I agree with you, it sucks when the hot season starts. It's been hot here lately, but not as hot as it was a few months ago.

I found out somewhat recently that my brother is getting into tranny stuff and by now there is probably nothing I can do about it. I feel like a complete failure as a brother (maybe I already was but this makes it feel worse). I do not know what I will do if he starts crossdressing or something. I am also just scared to talk to him about it because it seems that it is so ingrained in his friend groups and all of that, online and offline, that if I tried to pull him away from it my efforts would backfire and just make him retreat further into it. He is one of the few people I care about in this world, I was a fool for not being more protective of him, or something. I wish I could have kept him off the internet.

>>2348
I'm sorry you are going through such a difficult time. However, are you sure your brother is getting into these things, or just supporting them? Many young people support such minorities without being part of them. I don't feel comfortable giving advice because my situation is very different (I am my mother's youngest child, and the closest thing I have to a younger brother are my nieces and nephews), but what I would do is spend time with him doing activities that foster his masculinity. However, I'm afraid we all have to take our own paths at some point in our lives.

>>2349
It's pretty obvious looking through his social media accounts that he's actually into it, rather than just supporting it. Not only that but he ended up coming out to our mother after I uncovered his online stuff, so idk if there's any coming back from that. At the end of the day he is old enough that I can't properly have a say in it, he is technically an adult now even if he doesn't act like one. From what I have found and from pieces I have put together though, it started through online sexual roleplaying groups when he was a young teenager, 13-14 or so. Like I said at this point there is probably nothing I can do, really I'm just venting about it. It's pretty clear to me too that he isn't even really a transgender if you can call such mental illness "real", he doesn't really act in a feminine manner ever. he's actually pretty masculine in the way that he interacts with people, he's just kind of a typical autistic gamer kid so he ended up in the wrong discord groups and now he's publicly/openly talking about perverted stuff online. I just hope he doesn't do anything permanent and that one day this sort of stuff passes and he manages to somehow put it behind him, it probably won't but I feel like that's all I can really hope for at this point even if it's extremely unlikely.

>>2350
If it makes you feel better, there can always be a coming back from all this as long as he doesn't undergo any permanent changes, and fortunately, no one makes such a big decision overnight. I doubt that your brother will change his body in the near future. It's a real shame that he has dealt with those kinds of influences since his early teens but nothing can be done about it now. However, I'm glad to hear that you think he's not actually a transgender. Like you said, if he were one, he would try to talk and behave in a feminine way, and he seems to be doing exactly the opposite. I really don't know much about the subject, but from what little I've seen, being a true transgender, with all the bodily and mental changes it involves, is very difficult and unpleasant. Not only that, it also requires a lot of time and even money. I hope your brother will someday understand all that and realize that the whole process is not worth it.

My mother took money from me a few days ago to buy me a new smart phone. I know she did this because she feels guilty that I spent all my money on her and the rest of my family, but I still felt very upset when she gave it to me. Not only do I always feel like I need more money than I make to pay for our food and her medical treatments, but I also hate cell phones in general, possibly because I always associate them with work and study, two things that always ruin my day. Anyway, the damage is already done and maybe I should be happy that my mother thinks so much of me instead.
Funnily enough, I bought my first smart phone thinking it was for my mother, so this is the second time I've bought one of these things against my will. On the other hand, maybe this is the opportunity to make one of those homemade VR headsets I've seen on the internet.

I don't know how much detail it makes sense to go into, feels like any details I could give would be pretty personal stuff and too revealing about myself, in a lack of anonymity sort of way. I still want to complain though so I'll just be completely abstract about it. Anyways I just found out that due to a lot of financial stuff, things I had planned to do are probably going to be impossible. A big part of it is that I let someone else take responsibility for ensuring that things worked out, because that was what seemed most appropriate assuming the goal was to work together. At first I thought he was just incompetent but after digging in to it, it seems like he might have just wanted to pull out of the plans we had set up, but didn't want to tell me about it. Now I am stuck with having no time to figure out a backup plan, because I stupidly thought that he was just as reliant on this working as I was. Turns out is just fine with burning his goddamn money like a fucking retard. At the end of the day it didn't matter anyways if he wanted to cut me off or not, because it turns out that it would have been impossible anyways (which I would know if he was doing what he said he was doing and actually trying to prepare things). Serves me right for trying to work with a goddamn rat fuck normalfaggot piece of filth. Serves me right for trying to go out into the world and improve things for myself. I should have known I am meant to rot in my room until I die. FUCK I haven't felt anger like this since I was a teenager jesus fucking christ.

An update to this: >>1706. I finally got to the end of the book. It only took two years and starting anew three or four times (only to quietly give up halfway through the book). But in the end it was really very good and a pleasant way to pass the time.

Everyone made an effort to post more after the talk in the pinned thread. I wasn't up to doing the same.

Sorry.

>>2390
Don't worry. From what I've seen these past few years, this board always has a small spike in activity every so often, I guess none of us have much to say.
By the way, I found that first video almost hypnotic. There is something about the way the water looks that is almost surreal.

I've been dealing with tremendous brainfog the last years, my ability to communicate my thoughts and have normal, fluid chats is nearly non existent. Being ESL has something to do with it, but it happens in my native language as well. More than being ignorant in either language, I'm afraid it's simply the effects of prolonged isolation. I talk to nobody, I know no one, I do nothing other than stress and worry about things that are ultimately beyond my control. I tell myself that I can endure the pain of loneliness but my mind and brain betray me by having dreams of really old classmates or anime girls, it's obvious it's my subconscious crying in pain trying to fill the void with whatever it can lest I go insane.

My room is a mess, I decided enough was enough and made some deep cleaning and renovation. I'm not finished yet but hopefully I will before November. It took me a long time to separate and take out the trash. It paid off though, literally, because I found some old vidya I sold on ebay and marketplace, and with the money I put together a new (used, heh) mid range Skylake workstation, I have yet to find a suitable graphics card for it though (aiming for a used gtx 1650) And I still have to update my ancient laptop to W10 or W11. It's really old, but still good enough for basic use. All this makes me wonder, where did time go? It's something I see others express concern about, that the whole covid/lockdown years feeling like a fever dream. That's exactly how I feel, it's like I'm picking up my life right where I left it during '19 Q4 and '20 Q1, which for me was a double whammy because that's when I was putting myself back together after experiencing deep depression and some sort of mild derealiztion during '14 - '17. Basically I feel stuck in 2012. I've barely kept up with my media backlog, I'm so out of the loop in basically all aspects that I feel a bit alienated amongst anons too (eagerly awaiting new Madoka movie tho) So things are kind of normalizing, mentally at least.

I've been chronically sick for almost 2 years now. I will not get into theories, all I know is most other people, of all ages incomes and fitness levels seem to have some sort of illness going on too. That matters to me because depending on what is causing that, I may just throw in the towel and become even more reclusive that I was, stop looking for a job and just wait for death. My plan was quitting imageboards, or really any sort of distraction or parasocial or make-believe friends or community. My logic was it'd force me to seek the real thing instead. Needless to say it didn't work. Quite the contrary, my decaying health plus the total isolation made me deeply contemplate death. Made me realize I have almost no attachments, so the thought of death, with my chest pains and pulsating tinnitus was constant. Listening my own blood swooshing around my head with each heartbeat. Scary. The imageboards I once knew long abandoned or their population visibly changed. The world around us quickly changing, while I remain paralyzed by anxiety/fatigue and well on my way towards an early death. Unequipped to deal with facing both my rapidly approaching mortality, and the absurd meaninglessness that is staying alive just because I'm afraid of pulling the trigger.

I don't know, I barely vent post. Each time I did I ended up feeling a bit worse than before, but I also know very well bottling things up is a very bad idea. Speaking of which, I was forced to reconnect with one of my aunts, who I'm not exactly fond of because reasons. I ended up saying a bit more than I'd have wanted to, and learning more than I needed. Turns out suicide runs in my family ain't that friggin awesome? It's almost like God is telling me what ya waiting for anon? Ah damn. Wish I could forget she said that. And I hate depending on others. Anyway, I still fondly remember the wizardchan of the past, and magicchan. I never posted much, because I just had nothing to share, this fever dream like feeling actually started around the mid '10s for me when one of my parents passed away unexpectedly but not really, shortly after I dropped out of college and realized I was not meant to be normal or have friends and that even a humble life of stocking shelves at nightshifts would be harder to attain than initially thought. And then, well, whole covid and basically realizing there is a real chance my will be absolute fucking shit forever, that I will never move out, or have friends. I hope not, but prospects are not looking good.

During the last year and in an effort to improve my fatigue I tried delving into nutrition as deep as I could. I've been experimenting with some supps, but no noots because I am poor. I genuinely think I've been living with moderate undiagnosed adhd, how else could things get this bad? How else could I have procrastinated so many things for so long? How come megadosing some b vitamins and other stuff is what partly got me out of the rumination/scrolling/hoarding hellish cycle I've been fighting so hard to get out of? Hopefully as I learn more I will be able to join the workforce again. Anons always advise to just start doing something, but sometimes a lifetime of poor habits, spiritual malaise, rejection, poverty, scatterbrain, hoarding and all that is bad for getting things done makes it really, really hard to keep it up. Guess "clean your room", literally, was the best advice all along. My new computer should be arriving next week or so, I wanted to get a dremel too and make another desk for it, and another smaller desk to finally get on with my board repair program I've been putting off for almost ten years. I follow every now and then a very popular electronics technician, in one of his latest videos he talks about how the industry has changed since he started, and how he feels it'd be impossible for newbies to make it big like he did. All this makes me feel as if we're entering an era where any sort of mobility has become impossible, not social, financial nor professional. The guys at the top entered a matthews effect loop where the wonders of techonology make them exponentially richer/smarter/well-connected, and those at the bottom are left just scraps if lucky at all. That is something I'm sure has a lot to do with the percieved decay of imageboards.. I'm so late to the game, but it is what it is. Who the fuck am I right? Nothing. Nobody. No skills. Zero friends. Zero money. All the low hanging fruit has been taken, and all solid friend groups are closed off. Right now I just wish I had a friend, but I'm old and dumb, yet I haven't given up. Thanks for reading and thanks to modmin for maintaining this place. Goodnight anony.

>>2378
I just lost $1000 like a fucking retard.

>>2393
I'm sorry to hear about your situation, mage. I live with my family, so I am rarely really alone, but I have also experienced brainfog lately. Sometimes I think it is due to my age, but I am aware that there are people much older than me who have agile and inquisitive minds. I fear that in the end we really are social animals and need to have conversations from time to time in order not to lose some of our innate abilities. Possibly there are many people who can cope well with complete solitude, but possibly they are the exception that proves the rule.

I'm glad to hear that you took the time to clean your home. I don't know why, but cleaning up your surroundings has quite a nice effect. Not only does it make your home a little more pleasant, but it also helps you remember what's around you and why it's there. The best part is that you managed to improve your PC in the process. I've been wanting to do that for a while now, but don't have the money to do it. Reading some posts on different IBs, I notice that the pandemic hit several people pretty hard. On the other hand, I understand what you mean by feeling stuck in the past. To some extent, I feel the same way. I have had the same aspirations, dreams, obligations and interests for years. In my case, I think I live trapped in that time because I haven't made time to take care of those pending issues. Why do you think this happens to you?

It's a real shame that you have to deal with your illness. I guess you are right that we all suffer from some illness to a greater or lesser extent. You're not the first person I've heard say they want to leave the internet to rejoin the real world. In fact, the idea has crossed my mind a couple of times. Unfortunately, I think that when it comes to very extreme cases, this is impossible, although it might be more fruitful to try to do it in small steps. Anyway, getting a job and a good social life is not easy at all. Even ordinary people suffer a lot trying, but at least they have the social pressures of their daily lives to motivate them. It's hard to find a good reason to keep up the fight that doesn't collapse when calmly overanalyzed.

It's really unpleasant when you find out that your close relatives also suffer from the same problems as you. It makes you feel that you are predisposed to go down that path. I wonder if people think about these things when they are about to have children. I imagine some people try to be positive about this kind of situation. Maybe they think it just means that they are not alone in their struggle and that every generation is an opportunity to find a solution to the problem. However, you have to be a very optimistic person to see the world that way.

I think I understand what you mean. For a time in my life, I felt like everything was too fucked up to justify trying my best to change things. It was as if I was faced with a machine that was so broken that the only option was to throw it in the trash and pretend it never existed. However, sometimes you find some energy in the little things. Cleaning your home brought you good things, which is a good start. What you comment about that popular electronic technician has crossed my mind more than once. It feels like the world has become too big and demanding to give the less gifted a chance. I even think artificial intelligences will make that situation even worse. I guess the only way for people in high places to have new and better possibilities is to take them away from ordinary people. This hurts me because I feel like a novice even in those subjects that genuinely interest me.

To be honest, I've been wanting to respond to your post ever since I first came across it, but I've been postponing it because I couldn't think of anything valuable to say. I know it's not worth much, but I really wish you the best, mage. I hope you get relief from all those bad things that are affecting you soon.

>>2397
That sounds terrible. Are you comfortable telling us what happened?

I just got done reading some posts on here I made 3-4 years ago. I erased them from my memory but recognize them immediately when I started reading them.

It's weird how the internet can function as a sort of a time machine in a way.

Sometime I wish I had a way to look at all my activities I used to to when I was younger, let's say pre-2010 era just for the fun of it, it would be really cool to look back at a completely different version of me.

Music in his way has the same effect. I always tie experiences to music so whenever I hear a song the moment in my life I first heard it usually pops into my head.

>>2399
> Music in his way has the same effect. I always tie experiences to music so whenever I hear a song the moment in my life I first heard it usually pops into my head.
I have this with video games, this is the reason why I play a few games again, again and again. When it comes to music I am straightforward awful. The OST from video games and anime is all I know. Still they remind me of the time I played/watched it for the first time as well.

>>2399
Some time ago I used the Wayback Machine to visit an old forum I used to frequent. Some of my old post made me feel a little embarrassed, but it was a nice exprience anyway. I couldn't help but wonder whar all that people were doing now.
Speaking of which, the other day I had to accompany my family to our hometown to do some stuff. It had been years since I had taken a long car trip, let alone to that town. I felt a little nostalgic, to be honest.
>>2400
I know what you mean. There's a few video games from my childhood I like to replay every now and then.

>>2398
I don't want to go into it, but thanks for asking.
>>2399
>>2400
I hardly ever listened to music or played video games. Can you imagine that?

>>2403
No, I can't. Video games have been a part of my life since I can think back. I rarely listen to music though, usually only when I am too tired to actively do something. Anyway, how do you spend your time then? I also read a lot as a child. because my parents restricted my gaming.

Something tragic happened today. My older brother's third child died just a few days after birth. We are all very sad, especially my brother and his wife, obviously.
However, something my mother said got me thinking. She also lost her third child a few days after he was born. Both children were born on the 23rd and died on the 27th. Not only that, they both shared the same name (my father's name).
Of course, this is all just a huge coincidence, but it's still sadly ironic. Anyway, I hope my brother and his family recover from this loss soon.

I was ahaving some trouble with my Mint installation, so I decided to reinstall it, just in case. However, I must have done something wrong because I completely screwed up the boot part. I spent a couple of days trying to fix it, but I couldn't find a solution. In the end, I gave up and reinstall Windows 10. I'll probably reinstall Mint in the future, but for now, I'll settle for Windows. To be honest, it's kind of nice not to switch OSs constantly.

>>2414
Having two separate machines is way better to dual booting.

I don't have anything to say, but I wanted to share this picture anyway.

I think it's a cool picture.

Some mod on the big baddie is making a scene and someone decided to link him here....

Power rationing in my city has gotten worse in the last few weeks. Before I only had to bear four hours without electricity (not counting the power cuts in the early morning), but now they have increased the measure to between six and seven hours. It is quite annoying.

so where did all the wizards go? Wizchan is absolutely dead and the admin is a complete retard who hates its userbase

>>2478
Wizchan has been an playpen for a group of posters who where given moderating privileges sometime in the mid-early 2010's and have developed a bond. Most egregious examples that come to mind are the sopranos avatarfag and the literal faggot, Andrew obsessed with shotas, shitposting, and erping. Youre basically posting in what is essentially an extension of what would be their IRC.

Someone blatantly called Andrew out here
https://wizchan.org/meta/res/64506.html
and its him right down to the behavior of deleting posts taking jabs from the dirt he has on you as mod on both wizchan & /R9K/. You can still see the gaggle of moderating faggots on wizchan's /B/, /lounge/, and the hidden boards. You would think they would outgrow shitposting by now but you can see their faggotry on /b/ right now at whatever period you might be reading this post.

None of them are virgins so whose the site really for? Take your time ill give you a minute

>>2479
Yeah, it's always been underage fags and a bunch of normalfags and larpers. Pretty sad, the Admin doesn't give a shit and has allowed them to destroy the site. It's highly likely he is a kiwifarmer or a normalfag himself.

Do you know of any other sites beside this one for actual wizards?

>>2481
I have noticed on imageboards in general mods care much less than they used to. You're probably familiar with more places than I am at this point. Can't say I'm interested in finding any more places of refuge at this time. It's all the same. You might find one that's great for a period but they all get shat up eventually or best case scenario slow to almost a freeze or amicably shut down. After this happening so many times anyone would get tired of it.

>>2481
It's been a while since the last time I visited that place, but I remember Lizardchan being a good site for wizards, although they too have a certain fondness for shitposting, or at least that's how it was at the time. Unfortunately, I don't remember what their URL was, possibly something like lizardchan dot xyz, but I'm not sure.

>>2483
Lizardchan? Lol theyre cool. They don't take themselves too seriously. I only ever lurked there after wizardchan.org got nuked. I think im just aging out of all this. Funny cause im not that old to say something like that.

My mother died in the early hours of this Sunday, Mother's Day. It was unpleasant to see her die, but the doctors said she probably did not suffer. The worst is over and now her ashes are at home with my sisters and me. It will sound bad, but I expected to be more devastated by this. My mother and I were very close, but at this point...I feel "okay." Maybe on the inside I'm grateful that she finally doesn't have to deal with her illness anymore, or maybe our relationship lost steam when her illness confined her to her room. I'm not sure. Either way, I hope she will rest in peace.

I remember looking at my grandfathers body when he died before his funeral, my mother said I’ll give you a few minutes with him and I just stared and had no thoughts at all or feelings. After deaths it’s a strange thing.
I am wishing you the best though, this time will come for me soon and I don’t know what I will feel

>>2512
I agree with you. Death can be so strange sometimes that your mind often goes blank when you have to face it. I apologize if this is a sensitive subject, but did you have a good relationship with your grandfather? And thank you for your good wishes. I also wish you and your mother all the best.

>>2511
My father died last year so I kind of know what you must be going through.

Unrelated but I spent the last 3 hours searching my room top to bottom looking for my watch. I moved my desk, checked all my pockets, took photos under cabinets to see if it was under there, checked the bins I’d emptied, checked my clothes basket. I checked the entire floor as I’d just brushed it. I give up, I walk downstairs to get a drink, I come up, and my watch is sitting in the middle of the empty floor. I think the fairies are playing with me.

An ok relationship with him, we weren’t like super close so it’s not the same as if my mother died. But I have felt similar feelings around other deaths.

33 today. Slowly ranking up my wizard powers 🧙🏽.

Just dumped 1200€ for a new gaming PC and the exact moment I got it the will of playing disappeared.

I guess this is a classic moment of the actual pleasure is the await itself.

I remember doing that with a gaming PC, a playstation, and probably some other things. I guess I got it meaning to play games but actually playing them was too much out of my normal routine so I just didn't. Since you obviously meant to play something when you bought it I recommend trying to just force yourself to play whatever games you had in mind, at least for a couple of hours. Maybe you will warm to it.
