Tough morning today...

So,. let's see. 

All in all, a good weekend. Quiet, as I intended. Got most of the chores done, except the vacuuming and mopping. Ah well, tonight or tomorrow for those. 

The highlights:
- trimmed cat claws
- body pump class
- groceries
- laundry 
- rp on Saturday (I think I mentioned that already)
- FFXI fun - Connar definitely needs to join this linkshell. Lessee - I finished a few quests (Hearts of Mythril, Smoke on the Mountain, Buckets of Gold that I can remember), got killed by Stinging Sophie (darn it! I was that close! But at least I know that someone from the linkshell killed her, the witch of a bee. Who gives bees names anyway? Hrmph! Yes, I am going back to kick her little stinger where it belongs... ), upgraded my greataxe to the level 12 great axe, sold a few things - I have way too many items in storage. There's got to be something I can do with it all, learned to fish (thus the buckets of gold quest... twice even), got my gold smithing craft skill up to 1, cooked 4 (Yes, 4) hard boiled eggs and 2 pebble soups ... which I shall take with me next time I go after stinging sophie the witch. And ... yeah, it was fun. Oh yeah, and I killed 2 enchanted bones and still didn't get a bone chip. For sure though, this little area of Gustaberg is getting to seem a little tame. Even the quadavs go the other way when they see me coming now. ;) The goblins are still stupid enough to attack me though.
- and I finished off the open bottle of wine that was left over from my party. Oh, except not the zinfandel, because I couldn't drink that much and still make it to work today.
- episode of SG1, season 9 (already posted about)
- regular household chores
- my graduation roses finally died.  They were absolutely lovely roses, a combination pink-peach colour that was fairly unique and very beautiful.
- lost an earring - and still haven't found it.

I wonder ... I'm promised to a 6km walk tonight, and then rp on MoL and SGA... but maybe I can try stinging sophie again on wednesday evening? Cause I'm irked with her now. 

Bubblie Bernie is next on my list. :)

v     bomb ash – need to talk to Benita (J6) again, and to Tete (I5) – dropped from shrapnel which is level 8-10 …  (reward travelers hat) Done.

Not bad, huh? Gee, guess where I've been spending my gaming time of late...

I think I still have 7 quests that I've talked to the npc to start ... and 12 more I can start whenever I find the npc to get the quest. Not sure how many exactly are done, but there's 86 quests according to the list. If it's right. I think I've done about 16 so far but that's just a guess. So, about 70 of them to go. In Bastok... and then there's all the others. Wild. I think you could play this game for years and years.

The flowers, just so you can see them...

Cause well, why not?

Shoulda been RP, but there wasn't any...

The list has shrunk...

v     1 dog collar off a wolf in north/south gustaberg (reward map of the gusgen mines)

   

v     bone chip (reward map of the dangruf wadi) Done because it's a really nice Linkshell!!!! I now have the map of the dangruf wadi.

v     quus – use to spawn bubbly Bernie and get the steam clock(reward 500 gil) - got the quus by fishing!

Course, I'm soon enough going to expand it again. cause there's new stuff I need...

v   Silver Ingot
v   Painting of a windmill 
v   Siren's tear
v   Indigested Ore (in Gusgen mines so get the map first!)
v   party of 6 adventurers, level 5 or lower.

7 quests active atm. 18 complete. So ... what? 61 I haven't looked at yet. Sheesh!
