I've got the cooldown blues

There's an air of disappointment in this "office" I use mostly to play games in. I truly thought my cards were going to be usable today, but now that it's today and the cooldown is showing hours rather than days, I'm realizing I still have essentially one more full day to wait.

That's okay, I suppose, but I have some days not only off of work, but days to myself at home. My wife will be away visiting her mom for a while, which undoubtedly means I'll be playing more.

Thinking of this the next time I'm thinking of doing something drastic like renting or delegating out all of my cards may help me avoid that. In the summer, I just wanted to enjoy real life for a while. That made sense. Then I learned of a terminal illness my mother has that my brothers and I stand a good chance of also getting and it threw my mind into a dark place it was difficult to get out of for a little bit. That's around when I decided to just delegate all of my cards to a Herons Unlimited account.

Then I got bored and wanted to play again, but had only smaller / weaker accounts to do that with. I finally decided to get back into it, but now I've just been waiting. Playing a little bit here and there, but that's not been going well with the cards I currently have available. Or maybe that's just what I'm telling myself... maybe I just suck at the game now!

At least there are a bunch of tournaments I can play today. The thing is, I can't play the best tournaments without paying a fee to enter them because of my current league. Improving my current league is proving to be difficult without some crucial cards from the pre-Untamed era.
