It's been a while..

Okay, so I just haven't really been in the mood to post or something. I got really busy with the start of this latest quarter..term.. semester.. whatever the hell my school is calling them now, and haven't had a lot of time with classes and work and just wanting to hang out in EQ2 afterwards.

I'm still not level 51.. I meant to get that the weekend that DoF came out, but I'm slow. Or.. un-motivated. I hate playing alone even though the solo xp in the sinking sands has seemed really good. I hate waiting to find a group. There are only two other people in my guild high enough leveled to adventure with me, and I hardly have any friends outside the guild to go with. So pickup groups.. yeah. I dunno, I just don't have teh drive yet like I did when I was getting close to 50. It comes in waves :)

Otherwise things have been going good. I got promoted to full guide a couple of weeks ago, and moved off the training server to my new permanent server. One I requested because I know a guide there. They are lucky, because another guide that I trained with also went there by luck of the draw, so they got two new guides :)

The "live event" if you can even call it that, is kind of lame.. we just point players to an npc that gives a quest. Though you do get something good out of it if you get a guide to give you their quest for it.. so be on the lookout for some Gnome pirates :P And yeah, at least we get to play pirates! Arr!

Going home this weekend to help my friend back there get the updates for EQ2.. he has been out of order since DoF launched since he is still on dial-up. Apparently there is one single file that takes 7 hours, but his connection doesn't stay up that long and so he is stuck on this one file.. at least that is the story he gives me :)
Though secretly maybe I don't want him to start playing again yet, because he will probably pass me in levels now that the cap is 60. He leveled like a fiend to get to 44 to group with me and actually be useful, so.. yeah. Oh well, I like having him around. We used to kick so much ass together in EQ1 ;)

Anywho.. I'll try to post in these more. Karnatos just needs to motivate me more :)
