60 and 36 don't make 96

Got to level 60 on sunday (along with howling fist. i <3 howling fist). On monday, i talked to hiroku and he said it was sub level day. So i leveled war to 36 (half way to 37). The pt in GC was pretty good. I tanked most of the time, and pretty good considering i had a nin who didn't want to tank. Now if i can get only that last level i can start doing some more fun ones. Still working on getting leather to 7 but it takes forever. sigh.


Over the weekend Johnny Carson died. I remember watching him growing up. I always liked his dry sense of humor.

G3

Well i was expecting to do mission 5-2 last nite instead we did genkai3. Oh my. Not easy, but not too hard. lots of good moments in the game. First me screwing up Beuadex. Second, how Tombstone, a guy from Hiroku's LS made several wrong turns in getting the last crest at castle oz. Got my af hat. all that's left is my pants now. Special thanks to ryudemonknight as to guiding me through this quest.

MLK Day

Okay yesterday was MLK day and I got the day off. I always get the shivers hearing the 'I have a dream" speech.

As for the weekend. It went pretty well. I got to 59 last night, the SP is back on. I got to kill Nue (now just the deadly dodo and molgbar are left). Helped Moon get the tele-vahzl scroll. Got to pt with both Kaiyan and Clirran. Ran all over Fei'yn and got no aggro (gotta love that). The place still freaky though.

Going to fight the Shadowlord on Wednesday, hopefully we can find a blm.

Bad Kiddies

Found out that theawakened.net got hacked. bastards killed the database. peoople are just mean sometimes.

What a good day.

Yesterday was a good day. SPC was done with favorable reviews (that statistical process control, a six sigma thing. Got a good bit done (mostly odds and ends type of stuff). Anyway, it was a good day at work, so i figured ffxi was going to suck. And it started so. I got a pt fairly fast, 20 minutes, only to have it break up. Went farming after waiting for 2hrs and then got a pt. It was the best pt i've had in a while. Got 15k exp and got to 58 (only 20 exp in though :( ).

Today I went out to lunch to a chinese/malayasian restaurant and our VP just happend to eat there as well. When it came time for the check, the host told us he paid for it. Yup, it's been a good 24 hours......hope it doesnt end.

57 again and again and again

Okay got my mnk to 57 friday nite. Was very happy and sad (sad cuz it took so long). We pt at Cape Terrigan (i call it cape terror). Died on the way there (K. tunnel cacturs need i say more). In the end i ended up with 1.4k of exp above the level. Saturday i deciede to do some farming, i recieve a tell from hiro saying some pally was trying to get his test and doing coffer. so i run to jeuno and ask get into the group (catha, angelix, fignut, endoq, and some1 i'm missing) we go to beaudex i die again. delevel get raise get level back (200 to spare). start fighting getting about 10 exp. get a key on the second mob. get coffer as its right there. (yippee) fight some more pally gets his test. on the way back, sneak fails and i get aggro, catha helps, i warp, and she dies (my fault, i'm so sorry catha). Later that nite i spend all my silver respository and make about a sack and a half of ignots. (4 stacks of beast coins and 8 ores plus another 16 i bought at the guild). On sunday leveled up nin to 12 and did 5-1. Was feeling good decieded to head over to the sancurary and kill goobbues. got killed by a gob parasite. deleveled...looked for a group (was certain i wasn't getting one) got one but got rejected half way to b.t. still went to the tree, group got me in got my level back plus 900 exp.
