Not going to be a fancy post today, hell, feel lucky that there is a post. It's been awhile since I made a post, not out of any reasons other than I haven't ha much to say. I have been keeping myself busy outside of the game. Busy with work, getting ready for school, working out (each day seems I get closer to being a health nut.), spending spare time with a couple friends.
So with all of that, my playtime has been severely limited. As written before, I joined up with EQ. I had been having a lot of fun with them, so to those EQ peoples reading this, don't take it as against you! Same goes for my other friends in the game. It is nothing against you or anything on that level. I am normally logged into the game, on afk status it seems. Maybe I need to jungle my schedule to get myself a bit more playtime, but at this point I am taking care of what I see as important to me and rebuilding (and plain building) relationships with people that have fallen under. Again, this isn't to say anything against those I care for in the game, I just have ignored some things for too long.
Spent some time with friends last night when I played, I felt out of place. Not welcome. I guess that is how it will be for some people. Nothing I can do about it. Didn't quite expect such a cold greeting, but I suppose I haven't been around, so I got what was coming to me? If that's the case, then I will just keep walking.
Not sure why I felt the need to post this stuff, just have a bit of free time today, and thought I would sit down to write a bit. I suppose with change some people will leave your life. If I reach out and someone ignores it blatantly, I know where I stand. Going to stop reaching out just to get burned. Every relationship between two people brings something different to the table. What is expected and needed varies by the people involved. And when those needs are met, maybe that just marks the end for some people.
On brighter news, I am going to finish my last year of school this year. I am excited. I already got a degree in Computer Support, which I did nothing with. I realized as I was getting ready for my last semester in the program that I didn't want to sit in a cubicle under florescent lights the rest of my days. So I am finishing my venture into Criminal Justice. Very excited to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Excited but nervous. In less than a year I will be in the real world. I so look forward to it. There are a few options of where I am thinking about moving to. Denver is a real possibility, but I am not ignoring other opportunities as they come.
I hope that I am in a better place in a year. Family issues resolved. Starting my life (finally) and beginning a new career. Living life not just planning to live life. These are my care free days, and I appreciate that. Hence my desire to take care of some things that I have wanted to for awhile now. Once I am working full time, maybe settling down with my own family someday, and living life.. I may not have time for all that I wanted to se resolved.
Just because this is mainly a FFXI LJ... Stuff:
Bit if EQ stuffs: Jailer, bit-o-limbus, Salvage, Dead things, more dead things, missing good peoples!
Finally finished DRK and Ovatsug finished SCH to 37, yay to being able to be a stun whore now?
Farming stuff for Ugly Pendant with Deemo and Loops, White Steel is stupid!!!
Being a cheerleader for Deemo getting THF to 40, I should help when I can.. TH2 good times!
Limited playtime results in.. Skilling up! Great Sword is higher than it was 2 weeks ago (like 103 to 173.)
Random ISNMs or Assaults; ISNM resulted in K ore - which goes to the BLM fund. (Such as buying White Steel if you have any!!)
And what I have used FFXI for mostly lately: A chat program.
And I will finish this entry with a word that I thought I would never say.. Its linked to my friends ordering me a Cosmopolitan the other day (I mean.. that's a Sex in the City drink, amirite?) So I will bid adieu until next time with..
Toodles!
