Monday morning, my head is aching, I'm at work, here we go...

Thu: Short LDoN with friends, no great loot, nothing special.

Fri: No EQ for me, real life and girlfriend faction.

Sat: Again, no EQ. Again, real life mattered more.

Sun: More girlfriend faction. Finally got an hour off and played EQ. The only item still missing for my Earring of Solstice is the blessed fishing rod. I remembered having seen some in Bazaar between 700pp and 900pp. Entered Rathe Mountains to get some money (had only 600pp in bank), killed some Hill Giants and went to Bazaar to find out that somebody had bought all blessed fishing rods, now offering them for 1,2k... Smiley: glare Logged off.

I really, really, REALLY want more time to play...

Wed - Bad night and failed P2 of Time :(
Thurs - Day off of work, did a couple AVs in WoW before Raid Time. In EQ we went back and did P1-P3 of time, finished with seconds to spare
Fri - Day off of work, did another couple of AVs in WoW before Raid Time. TT and Saryrn in Time
Sat - Day away from home, went to friend's parents house with her for the day to celebrate my birthday (which was Thursday). Got home and didn't feel like logging into EQ, so played WoW for the night
Sun - Played WoW for a little bit until the server crashed. Hopped onto EQ and did P5 CT and Bertox. Failed x2 on Inny then we called it a night.
Mon - WoW night.

Congorats, Cafeen, ye old fart Smiley: wink2

Sat: cancelled the lease on my flat there a while ago effective March 31st. But on saturday a new tenant showed up, who wants to move in asap...so I started clearing my flat. man, that is fun. at least I was able to sell him some stuff (tellie, closet, sideboards, washing machine), so I don't have to move too much. also, he will take care of painting the flat too. just great. just like being in tradermode ;)

Sun:

4 more hours of moving stuff...

in the evening, my guild helped me to get "a human skeleton" to spawn in CoM. thank you Svi, Dot, Ash, Kriegs (hope I didn't forget one...). Smiley: yippee Aude FTW

that would almost enabled me to hand in all three bottles to Despondo (to get my concussion spell). But alas, I accidently handed the last skellie Rylas bottle too, and he ate it...oh well, Wizzie is parked now in KC to make the turnin again.

then 3 more SB MM's to help a guildie get the mask. after that just playing around with my 50 Pallie. saw snowbeast up, and due to meager DPS it took me 10 mins to kill him. had an add too, but dispatched him rather easy. thank good for healing potions though ;)

Hey Congrats Kajolus.

My wiz has the swirling bottle from KC. Don't know if you can MQ this, but if you can you're more than welcome to it. I've been hanging on to it for literally months and don't imagine I'll ever be finishing the quest at this point.

Happy Birthday Cafeen! Smiley: clap

Husband and I started a BL and Druid duo a bit back. Someone around here recommended them as a good pair.

I must say we've been cleaning house.

This weekend's highlights were taking out the Swarmcaller and Swarmleader in NL - a couple times, finishing up a lengthy task in SK, and finally last night dinging 25 on the two of them.

Played a bit with all of the snow.

Managed about half a level on my main. Working through 55....ungh!

However my two juniors aka shaman and cleric, have 2 fresh new levels(25 and 21) thanks to the new hotzones. Spent a while hunting red snow cougars. If a pull was too much used a hotkey for the translocator on the dock. Getting most of a blue a kill!

Other than that tore my back up shoveling.

Happy BDay Cafeen!!!!

Hi folks,

Happy one Caf! Smiley: boozing

Friday was a long night of EQ. My guild finally all made it back on and we did MM's all night since a lot of us had never played them. I really liked the Poisoned Flounder one, where you are pirates raiding Freeport. We never managed to get 100 loots so we could get the sweet augment, but it was still fun. Unfortunately, that was the end of EQ for the weekend. We had company for dinner Saturday, and they ended up staying over because of the weather. Breakfast went to lunch, then dinner and the next thing I knew they were leaving, my daughter was already in bed, and I had to get up for work in 6 hours... crap. Ah well, there's always tonight!

Sometime on Friday I logged on my ranger and made 3 wofs as well as turning in 4 heretic heads for a sash. Lot of hunting pandas for the claws then. Also dinged 39 on him. Continued to move items around in banks. Jonwinnie played in stonebrunt as well. Sometimes with friends and sometimes solo. She also made the trip to Rm to hunt HG for lambent stones. She wants the experts symbol to go with her arms and legs DON armor.
Saturday saw her at the beach of gunthak. 2 deaths 1 due to not being careful while moving along the wall and trying to get to back of beach instead of killing the mob where it aggroed.
Second death was grouped with a cleric, who went OOM and sat in open instead of along the wall. Add killed us both. I could have gated but stayed to try and take them both.
Leveled rogue to 11 on povar, and did some work on the cleric on sat and sunday. Primrose and I did some hunting in Stonebrunt on Sunday then did a few MM there with guild. First one I got an upgrade to the shoulders, the second one Dot got the mask and the third one the mask dropped again. Primrosex grabbed it as an upgrade to her split paw mask. :)
Started alchemy on Jonwinnie, spent about 300 plat to get level to 26. Sow potions for the poor.

Friday - Did part of a Time raid, started late so we only got through Phase 4.

Saturday - No EQ, went grocery shopping with the wife for the first time in 5 months, spent over $300. Man, we like to eat. It's good to be home though!

Sunday - Helped a guildee with his lame 1.5 paladin fight in Plane of Nightmare. Went way to easy, think we had too many peeps lol. Finished up the Time raid, phase 5 and Quarm.

Monday - Bout to log in and see if I can get some level 70 runes. I still need BBB :(

Friday: Soloed my main (55 Druid) for awhile, went to PoJ with some guildies, and then participated in 2 (failed) Hedge Raids.

Saturday: Went to Fungus Grove with guild for VT key shard. Managed to be one of the few not to get it. (Confirmed that RNG hates me)

Sunday: Did HK MM a few times with some guildies and friends from my former guild.

Monday: Did HK MM couple of time before work, and a couple of times after. Don't have too much EQ time on days I work.

Somewhere in all that, I managed to ding 55, and picked up 6 AA's, and general enjoyed my first full 3-day weekend since October.

Friday-Replaced the metering rods in the edelbrock 1406 I put on the 396 in the 69 chevy pickup I have. Was amazed how easy they were to replace. Kicked myself for not doing it sooner.

Saturday-Moved several truckloads of board lumber from the elderly lady down the streets yard to mine for firewood use.

Sunday-Moved more lumber. The more I take the less the contractor will have to move, at least the city isn't levying daily fines. Met a scrawny gray tabby female cat wandering around by the slough with my brother there helping me move wood. Went back later to get more of the boards. Moved 6 pallets out of the way, scrany gray female tabby waiting behind pallets with kitten. Pregnant female cat abandoned with kitten gets a ride home with me.

Monday-Woke up at about 8:45 am with my Ting Ting yowling from my brothers room. She had no idea I was sleeping in the living room and had put the mother cat with kitten in my bedroom. Take my Pitty Ting to the vet (Pretty Thing in Tysonese) take her home to wait for blood work results. Pitty Ting is dead by 3pm. Third cat I have ever had that has had a stroke. Empty space under the covers now. Going to miss her fat long furred self next to me

Tuesday-Take Mom downtown to drop off documents for the divorce arbitration with her husband. Had 2 explosive fits at mom for not reigning in her smoking habit on the trip home after a stop at Wally world and my Aunt's house. Don't know if I want to see the world anymore for today.

I wish all my friends in Ashen Emergence were around and in game. I could really use their company right now.

Happy VD
