  • What I’ve Been Playing

    This is my first new “What I’ve Been Playing” update. The first of I what I hope many regular updated, but we shall see. Everquest 2 While I have several characters on two accounts, I am still a very casual player.  I have one pair of characters, a conjurer and Templar, that I play most […]

  • Blogging Block

    Lately It’s been hard for me to actually finish a blog post. Here is what generally happens: I hear or read something that triggers a passionate response in me, or think of something really “smart” I want to record. I open notepad and jot down my a quick passionate comprehensible only to me thought. Then […]

  • Gaming SitRep

    The Situation Returning to limited play time that comes with work was a bit jarring.   Over the holidays I could slip off almost anytime and sneak some play time in, while being at work for 10-12 hours a day limits that dramatically.  I have settled back into a good routine and am wonderfully grateful for […]

  • EQ2 “ugly” and “good”
