[Taking a break] [Short time]

Last night I logged out completely exhausted from an entire night of ZNMs... I think I'm overextended at this point. Too many events going on, too many conversations, too much in /tell and too much trying to think about everyone to get them all up-to-date and involved. I'm making too many mistakes, which leads to failures (hi Limbus), people getting killed(baibai DD party vs. Armed Gears), or people feeling like they are being left out.

So... I need a break... time to cut back a little and not do as much. Good thing is that for most events where I'm heavily involved, there are other people who do a much better job of leading things.

Events I'll definitely continue doing:
- Dynamis - Simple, just come, contribute, try to get killed.
- Limbus - Utty is really the one who knows everything about Limbus and calls the shots.
- ZNMs - Fuuji is da man for this one. I just shuffle papers.

Events I may show up to:
- Einherjar - Scheduled time is really inconvenient... I'll probably stop going to this unless I happen to be completely free during that time for some reason.
- Salvage - Want to at least try it out a few times just for the challenge... Not sure if I'll do this event for the long-term though. The only thing I'd want out of it is the Mythic Weapon for Dancer, and I'm pretty sure that it's not worth the time investment.
- Exp - This will depend more on my mood... sometimes I want to just grind mindlessly for a few hours if I get into the mood for it, but that mood seems to come randomly. Same for leveling a lowbie job... sometimes the mood strikes me, but that's pretty rare.

Events that need someone to take over:
- Nyzul Isle - After leading the group around for this long, I'm getting tired of having to gather people, remind people to login (/stare Zurar) and finding replacements for no-shows to get a group together. Need someone to take over for the setting up of the event, as in getting people logged in, setup a party so that we can start. Nyzul is 7:30pm PST on Sunday. I can still lead the actual charge during the event and giving instructions what to do... anyone want to step up for this?
- Mission Friday - Yes, I know we haven't really started this... but I'd really appreciate it if someone wouldn't mind stepping up to help me get people organized... First mission Friday starts 7:30pm PST with item farming for ACP.

So, anyone out there who can give me a hand? If I don't respond to your tells during events, that probably means that I either missed it entirely, or your comment/question is something that needs to be addressed with everyone that I'll bring up in party chat.
