Games games everywhere, but not a friend to play

One would think living a city the size of Milwaukee that I would have little trouble finding people to play games with. Well, I should rephrase that a little bit. I have trouble finding quality people to play games with. I was in a fun little D&D group but stupid time restraints ruined that for me. I have a basement full of games, a huge table just yearning to host epic miniature battles, and yet I sit down there alone playing single player games of the Dark Tower and Arkham Horror. To top things off I have now starting getting into Warhammer, both the fantasy line and 40K. Can't really do the wargames thing solo. Hopefully after the New Year things will change, provided a certain family moves back to Milwaukee. Life being as unpredicatble as it is, I am not considering that until it really happens. I am lucky enough to have a wife that understands my need to game, she doesn't game herself. I suppose if she was that perfect my head would explode and nerds wordwide would conspire against me. So, here I sit, staring at my games collection and wondering how much thicker the dust will get. There used to be a time, college I think it was called, when I could find a game to play every night of the week. Course I had so little else to do then, and my grades may have suffered slightly as well. Now I have two, well kind of three jobs, a house to take care of, two dogs, a cat, fish, and a wife that likes to see me at least every once and a while. I fear that when I do find that perfect group that time will become the issue, as it did with my last group. Sigh, someday...someday.
