Sorry I haven't been keeping this blog up lately, I've just been really depressed with super hero work lately. You see, a lot of my team has gone off and gotten lives of their own now:
Genovia is in medical school,
Fairy is touring with Pegasus after having been hired as her fashion designer,
Lavender is off helping her family move across the country, and of course Thunderbird is with her.
Phoenix is paying call to all the MGAP kids; helping tutor the ones who are still interested in pursuing a super-life,
Dragon has gone back to her planet; looking to start dating,
Jack is doing his own thing, and Gryffin is off seeing if he can expand his super hero career by joining a new team..
So, I'm left by myself, reconsidering my position as a super hero..
Like i stated in my last post, it's not the same as what it used to be anymore: It's less about doing good and saving people, and more about getting glory and getting into fights..
Naturally I can't be, I don't even have a violent power.
.. Furthermore, it dawned on me that I am in my 20's and not married yet-- I'm not even dating! ..In fact, I haven't gone on more than two dates in my entire life... I'd like to attribute it to disinterest or laziness, but no, it's my super hero career:
I can't date a villain because they're all skank-weeds, haven't any standards to speak of, don't uphold my values, and are virtually not even worth thinking about. I can't date a normal guy because I'm under constant super-heroing pressure and would probably miss all our dates thanks to cruel irony and some psycho with a plasma ray. And I can't date a super-hero guy because basically EVERY super hero guy on the face of the Earth has kissed at least a million woman: villain, civilian, and fellow hero alike. It's really gross!
...So what about simple retirement?
I lol'ed at that. Did you know that ABSOLUTELY NO super hero has ever retired peacefully? None of them! Super villains retire easily enough, but there doesn't seem to be any rest for a super hero.. Even if they pass the reigns to someone else, their old nemesis STILL comes back and finds them, probably kills/injures someone close to them, and continues their reign of terror without any logical reason to have done so!
Some heroes enter retirement, stay in it for maybe two years, then jump out of it again.. Probably leaving a wife and kid behind... So yeah!
Uhg!
.....
Okay, basically, this blog is not dead.. But I'm not writing on it so much anymore because my feelings about being a super hero are extremely mixed and negative right now. Sorry for the inconvenience. =/
Lloyd Out!
