I spent the bulk of my gaming time on Wizardry, Infocom text adventures, and a hella difficult Star Trek text adventure during those years. We did get to the arcade every so often, but the closest one was 12 miles away.
I love how we all have that one game that drew us in. Mine was Wizardry, I used to write elaborate back stories for all my characters and then write stories about their adventures in the dungeon.

Cats are good companions, and pets help with depression and anxiety. Go for it. Just remember that vets are frigging expensive. The dog had an ear infection and it cost me $120 just for the initial visit and the ear meds.
Jamie, grab a Tales game, any Tales game. They are all stand alones, so no catching up required. I personally recommend Symphonia as my favorite.

I am officially old. I don't own an i anything. I did finally break down and buy an MP3 player last fall and I started putting my cds on it and that's as far as I've gotten.
Personally, I don't think it's worth it, but that's just my opinion.
