Hey guys, I'm so sorry for no updates recently, financial issues and life issues have conspired to keep me away from my hobby love...

I do have some big news though! For the last several years, I've been a student of musical theater at the University of New Hampshire. I love singing, dancing, and acting with a passion that rivals my love of wargaming, but I've come to a hard decision. I am just not cut out to live my life in professional theater. I'm not the type of person that is good with constantly moving from place to place, I am not the type of person who will change someone's audition time on the call board to make them miss an audition, or the type of person who will have my teeth shaved down to make them more square.
All my friends in the Theater department spend all of their time either a) rehearsing (I'm guilty of this as well) or b) researching information about shows/actors/songs/etc, which is what I know I should be doing if I was as passionate about theater as you need to be to be able to live in it. It really needs to consume every facet of your life, and my attention is clearly elsewhere.
So, this Spring, I will be transferring to the University of New Hampshire campus in Manchester, where I will begin to study business management and marketing...

...with the intent of someday opening my my own FLGS.

Fair enough Josh, be glad you realized you weren't suited to the profession before you finished your qualification, I know quite a few people who have and the end up with no idea what to do ( example, a friend's daughter with a masters degree in geography who now works in a fast food restaurant)

Oh and Management and Marketing may sound boring to some people but you have to remember, every business, organization and enterprise needs to have a manager... with that degree you can go anywhere and work in almost any field, good choice.

Oh and opening a FLGS.... perfect
