In Which There is Stuff and Things
The past few weeks I’ve had stuff to write, but I didn’t know how to go about it without (a) pointing fingers, (b) revealing too much and (c) without sounding like a whiney you-know-what. There’s still a lot of details I can’t, and won’t, go into, but I think I can pretty much sum up. Black Dagger Society For those that don’t know, I’m one of the GMs in Black Dagger Society in WildStar, along with my husband (Chaide), and a good RL friend. I love the guild. It is a place we feel like folks can come, relax, and be family. And then be successful when folks have the desire…

IntPiPoMo 6-7: Operation FARSIDE
In Black Dagger Society, we like to host “Safari Nights” where we go around exploring areas and smashing elites to (1) get revenge to all of those reds that killed us while leveling, and (2) work towards the rares achievements. The last one, we ended up on Farside, which is a very neat area on a moon with low-grav and everything. When you’re on Farside, you get a helmet. One of the guildies designed a costume just to wear while on Farside to match his helmet. There’s some soldiers doing drills out on Farside, so we decided to start a Rave with them.

IntPiPoMo 1-5: A Random Assortment
So it’s that wonderful time of year again–IntPiPoMo!! What is IntPiPoMo, you ask? Well… International Picture Posting Month (IntPiPoMo) is the picture equivalent of National Novel Writing Month (or NaNoWriMo). In reality it doesn’t have to be screenshots from WoW but images form any game or even an array of photographs you take of the real life world – it’s up to you. First off, you should participate! It’s lots of fun! Second, I haven’t officially started a post about where I am with gaming and such as of late, but TL;DR, I’m playing WildStar (and will post more about it later :D). So my screenshots will mainly be of…

Fish Fingers and… Pudding?
As I was walking through Thayd, collecting my Challenge Rewards, I received a bag with some goodies inside. Lo and behold, when I opened the bag, I stumbled across none other than… FISH FINGERS AND PUDDING! Not my favorite Doctor, but a reference I loved none-the-less. Thank you, WildStar Devs for that little fun surprise!

Two Years, Wow
Well, it has been almost two years… TWO YEARS … since my last update. What’s been going on in those two years? A lot, that’s for sure. Life Hahaha. Ohhh, I thought I wanted to be back in the schools. Nope. Long story short, it didn’t work out, and next week I start a contract in the field of Training and Development. I am so psyched! I learned that I was just being wishy washy, and I needed to find what truly made me happy, even if I had to do things that didn’t to get me to the happy career. And now, I have found it, at least for…

Mini-Post: Pop Me
A can in EVE Online, with some mining in the background. Picture by yours truly. As a hauler in a mining corporation, I spend a lot of time shuttling ore from our Mining Ops to our POS (Player Operated Structure). It can be both exciting and tedious, depending on the day and what else I have to do on the side, such as laundry or reading a book for fun. When it gets tedious, sometimes it’s fun to come up with a game to play. And that is what we did this past weekend. When a can is ready to be picked up, our naming convention is to call it…

Guess Who’s Back: Life In Retrospect
Oh, I love how I keep saying “I’ll blog more,” but then never get around to it. I’ll get better about it eventually. Life, overall, has had quite a few ups and downs. And very little time for gaming. Life Feel free to skip this. I don’t normally bemoan or mention real life much online, as I feel they should be as separate as they can be. However, life has been such a rollercoaster since November, that I felt it was best to get it all out and be done with brooding in my head. Please, feel free to skip this section. In November I lost an okay job in…

SW:TOR Class/Race Matrix
Just a quick post. My computer’s corrupt hard drive is making it impossible to play the SW:TOR Beta on my computer (sad face!) but the Elephant is amazing and is letting me chug away at his computer. I’m currently taking a break to watch the Elephant play a bit of Skyrim and then watch the Watchmen before coming back to the Beta. One of my goals for this weekend was to make matrixes for the class/race combinations since there have been very few floating around the community. The only one that I have seen, which is somewhat outdated if I recall, was one in a gaming magazine from last year.…

IntPiPoMo 13-16: Giving Thanks
Angelya over at Revive and Rejuvenate has developed a new challenge! IntPiPoMo, or International Picture Posting Month is an alternative to the popular NaNoWriMo. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, and the goal is to write fifty thousand words by the end of the month, IntPiPoMo asks that you post fifty pictures during the month of November. This is my contribution. Today in the United States, everybody is celebrating Thanksgiving in their own way. Whether it be home cooked meals, take out, or sit in dinners at restaurants, everybody is (hopefully!) giving thanks for the wonderful things in their lives. Myself, I am thankful for a loving soulmate, an amazing family, some…

IntPiPoMo 11-12: EVE Online
Angelya over at Revive and Rejuvenate has developed a new challenge! IntPiPoMo, or International Picture Posting Month is an alternative to the popular NaNoWriMo. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, and the goal is to write fifty thousand words by the end of the month, IntPiPoMo asks that you post fifty pictures during the month of November. This is my contribution. The Elephant and I have started playing EVE Online. We have been for close to two months now. What we’ve casually played of it, we’ve loved. We started a Corp with a fellow guildmate and got Wardeced. So we disbanded. Now we’re in starter Corps. It’s been an interesting change from…
