My Metamorphosis

    I wake up. Everything seems normal at first, I drop down from my bed and slowly walk towards the bathroom to take a shower. Something seems different though, but I am unsure of what has changed. I shrug off the thoughts as I get ready to embark for the day. As I am about to leave I realize that my bag is lighter than normal. I inspect the bag and realize that my Magic decks are not there. After searching for some time, I decided to put together a quick deck and roll with it.
    As I wait for the bus to campus, I come across a friend and strike up a conversation. We start talking about the latest roster changes and balance changes to League of Legends. EdWard has rejoined GamI bit Gaming and is the news of the day.
    "So how do you think EdWard rejoining Gambit will effect the EU scene?" Says my friend.
    "I don't know, anything is possible" I reply. "That was odd." I thought, "That isn't something I would normally say, EdWard going back to EU will have a giant effect." I try to say these words and they don't come out.
    "What about the whole Garen vs Renekton discussion last night Dan?" My friend says, trying to move past my obvious ignorance.
    "I don't know, both of those champions are good, I say it's an equal matchup." I retort. "What am I saying, Garen stomps Lizard Wizard in the early game and any good player would be able to snowball that to a lane advantage." My thoughts are unable to come to words. I attribute this to the cold weather and am probably catching an illness.
    Finally reaching campus I find some friends that are playing a game of EDH and I ask to partake, excited to show off the new deck I quickly built. They agree and I revel my general, Isamaru, Hound of Konda. Everyone at the table starts laughing and questioning why I am even playing with them. At this point I realize what I have become. I have become a casual.
