Ok, last night myself and the wife are in the pc room watching some of our favorite twitch streamers, just having a nice night, when out of nowhere twitch stops working. Now keep in mind that I was getting all set to stream also that night.Well needless to say it didn't happen because some complete and total group of idiots decided to DDoS attack twitch. You may have seen or heard about this on the news. I personally dont know what it means but damnit if it didn't mess up my night and also make me think about how much we rely on certain things for escape from pressures of life.
Ok, I think to myself, twitch is going to be down for an undisclosed amount of time, so what the hell I should load up Diablo3 and play that. "Great idea kid you haven't played that in a while, it will be fun". Fun you say!!! Fun was the last thing it was because Blizzard is also being attacked by the same group of (no having girlfriends nothing better to do with their lives than to just screw things up for everyone) DDoS group. I mean really now. Yes before you ask, I have other games on my pc, but haven't you ever been in a mood to play a certain game and you can't? You get all butt hurt and don't want to play anything else, Yep that was me last night. To be honest, the wife and myself were sitting here talking and actually laughing at ourselves on how funny it is that we were completely bored and didn't know what to do without being able to watch Twitch. Now you may think that "omg they are pathetic" (lol) and you know what we are (LOL so shutup). It is a cheap form of entertainment that lets us interact with people together. Yes we do go out and hang with friends and such but with money being tight, this is also fun. Wow did I just go on a random tangent? Sorry, so my wife looks at me and says "how sad are we just sitting here with looks on our faces of what to do now?"
Now in most situations you would think one of us would say "hey lets go make out or lets go play Mrs. Robinson and the UPS guy", (umm sidenote) is it weird that I would be Mrs Robinson? Sorry off track again. Well you know what I mean, do the old married couple thing. Did we? That's a big ole NOPE. We then sat and watched Gra3yardgirl on you tube. By the way she is awesome and funny, she will bring a smile to your face. Then we watched a little Buzzfeed then went into the bedroom for a little, well you know what I mean. Ok I will be blunt but if you are under the age of 18 you may want to stop reading here.............Yes we went to the bedroom and we got under the covers and watched a little tv before going to sleep.
Now you may think what is wrong with you guys and I would like to say there is nothing wrong with u,s it was a very nice evening. Well except for the stupid dumbasses that ruined twitch and gaming that night. I just wanted to let you all know that every moment I spend with my wife I love whether its us doing the shag nasty horizontal mambo or if its just sitting in the same room playing games on the pc or sitting in bed till we go to sleep or my favorite thing, fishing, with her. Just remember for those of you in a relationship or married whether its been 1 year or 50 years, its the little things that cost nothing that will stay in our hearts and minds forever. Thank you for taking the time and reading my little blog feel free to comment or follow me at twitch.tv Fuzzyjohn.

My first stream as a twitch gamer.
Its been awhile since I posted so I thought I would talk about my first stream that happened on Tuesday evening.
Let me start off by saying this wouldn't of happened if it wasn't for some wonderful friends in my life that helped me get to that point. OK after much setting up and figuring things out like OBS (open broadcaster software) and getting over my nerves and insecurities, I finally started streaming on Tuesday evening. My first game was Dayz, a survival horror game that I enjoy watching and got hooked on. Let me say I had a blast. I streamed for almost 4 hours. I had a few people stop in to watch but being new, I forgot to put the name of the game I was streaming in the title "oops" lol. The Twitch community, as a whole, is a great group of gamers that will go out of their way to help and make you feel like part of a group.
I started streaming and of course blogging at the idea from my therapist and psychiatrist as a way to help with my diagnosis of severe depression and severe anxiety disorder that I suffer from. So I decided what the hell and give it a try. I started following certain streamers and the way they treat you make you feel like part of a group is just above and beyond. If you like video games or like watching other people play video games I have a few people that are definitely worth watching.
I plan on streaming a lot more and streaming a lot of different games when money provides the opportunity
to do so. I will be doing console games in the future so stay tuned for more to come from this Ranting Old Guy.
SilentSentry Thank you for the encouragement and all the help.
