Omg finally. Hundreds and hundreds of casts, maxed out my fishing, and then I finally got this little stinker! Hallelujah!
Weekend Getaway to Azeroth
I'm still playing World of Warcraft as much as I can (which isn't nearly as much as I like) and it's been like a wonderful vacation home to visit my family. My husband and 3 of our friends have formed a guild on Wyrmrest Accord, and the 5 of us are questing, dungeoning, and achievement-hunting.... Continue Reading →
[EQ2] Heroic Character: What am I going to do with this?!
EverQuest II is currently running a promotion through October 15th, where players who log in to the game can get a free Level 85 heroic character of their choice, complete with 250 AA, gear, potions, etc. It's a pretty sweet deal and I think it's a bold step by Sony Online to bring more...

[FFXIV] My Little Chocobo
Not a whole lot of time to post....but I just wanted to say that I'm super excited that I got my very own CHOCOBO finally 🙂 I spent some time doing Grand Company Levequests today in order to finally get the last 1,000 company seals that I needed to turn in for my Chocobo mount....

The Newbie Blogger Initiative is BACK!
One of my favorite initiatives from last year, the Newbie Blogger Initiative, is back in full force this year. It's an exciting program, because it encourages people to start gaming blogs and then also helps them out with tips, tricks, writing help, and mentorship to encourage them to stick with it and be successful.Blog-fading (or...

[WoW] Sunday Funday
Yesterday the husband and I spent some time playing our Blood Elves together. We decided that we'd quest for a change of scenery, and I suggested we head to Arathi Highlands because I needed both the questing and exploration achievements there. I hoped that the zone would have undergone some kind of transformation with Cataclysm,... Continue Reading →
Guess who is baaaaaaack?
So here I was, trudging along and having a great time in Final Fantasy XIV. Mere minutes away from getting my first chocobo mount. And then I get dinner with a pair of game developer friends and they tell me that they were planning to return to WoW and roll up new characters. Pardon my... Continue Reading →
[FFXIV] Copperbell Mines completed!
I didn't get much time to play today because I had a lot of work + shopping to do, but I continued along my main quest for awhile. I'm halfway through 19 now and I not only completed the Copperbell Mines dungeon, I also did a duty afterward that had me rescuing a "Desperate Damsel"... Continue Reading →
[FFXIV] My first pair of dungeons!
Tonight, the main quest of FFXIV had me venture into two different dungeons. They were pretty neat! They both had some kind of prereq mechanics like unlocking things before you can enter the next room, which I didn't have to worry about since I was hanging in the back healing. I did Sastasha and The... Continue Reading →
Still Enamored With FFXIV
Well gosh darn it, just when I thought I had moved away from MMOs (yeah right) this little surprise popped up. I feel bad for being such a naysayer before FFXIV even launched, but I've heard it all when it comes to pre-launch hype. I didn't expect that I'd be playing FFXIV, much less enjoying...
