I swear I didn't plan it this way. We reserve vacations in November and December where I work, for the next year. This is the week of my anniversary, so I wanted to be off work to celebrate with my wife.
Unfortunately, her boss is on stress leave and as a result, she is working 12-hour shifts all week to cover for the boss, so our well-laid plans are out the window. I am home all week with nothing to do but play video games 12 hours a day.
And it's Iron Banner week. =D
Honey, I SWEAR, I didn't plan this in advance... but I am SO taking advantage of it. I have a 20-pack of Coke Zero, a week's supply of snacks, and a 15-foot walk to the bathroom from where the PS4 is set up in our house. I'm gonna play until my eyes bleed. 3 characters to Rank 5. Helmets for everyone.
Life. Is. Good.
See you in the Iron Banner. (Bring drinks.)
EDIT: Obviously I need to make one thing clear. My wife has been working this schedule every other week, then staying at home NOT working every other week, for 2 months now; while I have been working for 5 months without pause. So, yeah, it's rough to work in a kitchen for 12 hours straight, but when she's there, she's the boss, nobody tells her what to do, and she can sit down and take 20 when she needs to. Unlike in my job.
So, thanks for feeling sorry for my wife. But I needed a vacation in any case.

15 foot walk to the bathroom? This isn't Busch League, mate. I've already strapped a tube to myself that leads straight into the toilet. I've strapped an IV of Mountain Dew to my arm for MLG abilities and all I have eaten for the past month is Doritos Locos Tacos (which gives both Dorito MLG powers and Taco Bell/Destiny advertising campaign Crucible bonus). I faked my own death to get off work and had to cut off my leg, but God as my witness I am getting those helmets.

Do you drink coke zero cause your fat? Well your not. You could drink regular if you want. (If you don't know what I'm talking about go find a life)
-
Eww coke zero...
-
do u have beer ^ u need beer
-
I work in a kitchen as well, I know of those infamous 12 hour days.
-
PS4 you say? Mind having someone tag along?
-
Was this a sympathy thread?

Looking for a group of 7-8 individuals who want to wreck iron banner event w/ me tomorrow and days forth. I usually venture into the crucible solo whenever I feel like blastin guardian folks; but would honestly not want to do that for iron banner though. If you want to join my allegiance than send me a message but if not than get lost jk

Edited by TouchMyGoldnGun: 4/27/2015 10:31:48 PMLol nice post. Btw, does any of you here knows what weapons will be on the vendor this IB week? Ty I know helms are up for sale
-

-
I'll be probably rolling solo once again good luck to you all
-
Is the glitch gonna work this time?
-
I'm not deserting my family and I'm not sad I'm missing a week of lag and TLW
-
Have a ball man! I took off work for a week last iron banner and took all three characters to level 5. If you don't have a team to run with, it can be frustrating at times, but still fun. Enjoy man, enjoy!
-
I was wondering if that was happenstance. You really lucked out that it was delayed!
-
Lucky bastard.
-
I'm in the same boat, except I'm not on vacation. I've already cleared it with the wife that I'll be playing every spare moment that I'm not at work or running errands.
-
Zero calories? Is that because you think you're fat?
-
So creepy. That Lord Winter guy just private messaged me with more of the be super duper good to your wifey stuff. Locking my house tonight. I'm not even joking. He really did just message me privately. Just wanted to make my privates public for all you fine ass guardians.
-
Well convenient wife dodge aside, Iron Banner is the ONLY crucible mode I play It's what the Crucible should be - bring your best andf your A game... My sole aim to get both armour elements, if im lucky enough to get the weapons as well then good for me otherwise my sole objective will be that sweet Titan Helm Enjoy yourself - I know I will!
-
alone time is essential when dealing with any woman! I love them all, but you have to admit they are all nuts! Need that "everyone stay away from me" time to stay sane. But maybe that's just me
-
I'm not jealous. At all. Really. Not one ... 😩

Edited by ElonSkywalker: 4/27/2015 5:58:07 PMI work from home, so I won't make much money this week. Heading for the store now to pick up drinks, snacks etc. Hoping Saladin has a lot more goodies than just the Helms. Don't get me wrong, the helms are sweet, but I need Gauntlets for my Titan. Some great weapons would be nice too. Edit: Spelling LoL!
-
Use Thorn or TLW & Felwinter's and you'll be at rank 5 before you know it. Enjoy your vacation guardian.
-
Edit this post to see how it goes
-
I'll be there too and I'm bringing drinks that ryme with err.. Todka. Lots of Todka. Expect a challenge early in the day and easy wins by the end.
