My regular blog reader, fan, fellow musclegrowth.org forumgoer, and email correspondent Clark Savage Jr. (obviously not his real name) was considerate enough to give me a free trial to City of Heroes, a massive multiplayer online game. I was a good sport and gave it a shot (hey, it was free) and I was astonished. I had missed out on nearly every generation of video games, and so this experience was surprising. I was astonished at the flexibility and what an immersive experience the game could be.
I will admit, I was a little nervous I would end up one of those silly people I see in my college classes that vaporize their whole lives playing internet games. After my first evening really enjoying myself, out of sheer guilt, I think I did something like jog four miles and head to the library to study for several more hours!
I do have a little more nerd-girl street cred, of course. I'm still never heading to a science fiction convention, though I might make an exception if the handsome Michael Shanks is there.
If any of you muscle stud guys are on the Virtue server and you want to have a "team-up," send a message to "African Athena." Always the entrepeneur, I've even started my own Supergroup if anyone is interested!
