Another Decent Week

Despite an old guy trying to pick me up on Tuesday, my dog dying last week (;;), and me trying to fend off the summer heat to no avail, it’s been an okay week. Monday yielded a Sorcerer’s Petasos for Bobbyray, a BLM in my LS. Tuesday we got like our fourth Cerb, and got a second Algol to drop. We also to Bahamut V2 on Tuesday night which gave us the best loot pool I’ve ever seen there. Bahamut’s Staff + Mask dropped as well as a Cashmere cloth and all the other good stuff that goes with it. Wednesday I spent most of the evening taking pictures of Purgatory Bats with Xanthe and was even late to Einherjar as we were killing that Marid ZNM, Iriz Irma or whatever. After Einherjar, Xanthe and I went back to Pso’Xja to take a few more rounds of bat pics. I hopped on NIN went to Ifrit’s Cauldron to farm a coffer key for my NIN AF1 gloves (I finally have the mats to upgrade them to +1). Key dropped in like five mobs, which was the easy part. I spent close to two hours searching for the coffer to no avail. I also poked Vouivre, which was entertaining, I lasted longer than I expect considering I was on NIN. I went to bed after not finding the key and logged off. I logged on for a few minutes this morning and found the coffer in the most retarded place, but anyway I found it.

Boring posts are boring. Please Forgive me. ;x

Rain

Sometimes it rains
When it isn't supposed to
And today was indeed
One of those days.

Sometimes it pours
When you least expect
And today was indeed
Just one of those days.

I'll Always Miss You

To my loving Dog:

There’s no one in the World

Who I love more than you…

For I know that it’s true,

That you love me too

And I’m speechless to hear

That you may be leaving soon

There’s no one in the World

Who I love more than you…


I recall at when we first had met

And all the years I’ll never forget

You were there in my most difficult times

Through the rain, and snow, or when the Sun had shined

It’s no doubt that you loved me so

Your love was more than unconditional, I know.


I dread the day I’ll have to wave goodbye

And that you’ll always keep a watchful eye

On me, your friend for always and more

I love you so much

‘Til my heart beats sore.


There’s no one in the World

Who I love more than you…

For I know that it’s true,

That you love me too

And I’m speechless to hear

That you may be leaving soon

There’s no one in the World

Who I love more than you…

Teh Weekend of Awesomes


It was a pretty good weekend. Probably one of the best I had this Summer. Mainly for two reasons, Batman and Odin. The Dark Knight was infuckingcredible I can’t say enough. If you haven’t seen it go see it now. Stop reading, and go see it. I’m serious, stop reading and go see it. In IMAX if you can help it. Batman was so grim, so dark, so perfect. It was mixed with so much emotion and executed better than any movie superhero or otherwise that I’ve seen in probably ten years. It’s that good. Now stop reading and go see it.

Odin, was awesome. I actually went SMN if you can believe that. I haven’t brought SMN to anything in years but it was well placed in the DD setup of our fight. Odin was surprisingly easy, in a disappointing kind of way. We really obliterated it having about 7 minutes left over. E body dropped (yey) but my randoms blow so I lost the opportunity to assign that drop to somebody in my LS.

Overall a killer weekend. I finished it up making an unscheduled appearance on Pet Food Alpha to talk about various things, though I hope to go back on eventually to give my two cents about things we didn’t get to talk about. Oh well…oh btw got a Tiamat too on Sunday before Odin, too bad it dropped nothing awesome.

Honesty

Here's some more lyrics I've been working on for my concept album. A little cheesy but I'm going for some epic-ness in the music so I need highly emotional lyrics (notemo). >.>

Honesty

You may not believe

That what I am about to say

Are indeed the facts

Or that there was anyway to tell

That those before me

Were to blame

For what is to come

Out of all of this.

I know that

In your eyes

There's no telling

As to how this could possibly end

But I assure you that

I've known for so long

Known for so long

That this day would come.

I'm not asking you to understand

That this is indeed who I am

I'm not asking you to understand

That this is alone, is my decision

To erase myself

And die...

By my own hand.

Where not to leave your car keys...

Today when I went out for lunch I did the most righteous thing I've done in probably three or four years...lock my keys inside of my car. I'm not quite sure what possessed me in doing that. I even made an effort to roll up all the windows BEFORE I slammed my door shut. During the summer I don't normally do that either. It wasn't like I was going too far. I mean the eatery was situated about twenty feet from my car. Yeah, I don't get me either don't worry. I think what made me lock my keys in was the fact I had swapped them with my phone which was in my purse. For whatever reason I didn't bring that in the restaurant either! What the fuck!?!?!?!? (lol) Okay, so I had my cellphone at least I had that instead of having to beg the restaurant to let me use their telephone.

I called my mom to see if she knew of anything we could do and she eventually came out to see if we could break in with a coat hanger. No dice...then something fucking weird happened!!!! Incoming some random black dude he leaned over to us and said "I bet I could get in there with a better chance than you two." So we employed the help of this fellow. For whatever reason the coat hanger alone wasn't cutting it so they started to look for some kind of tool in trunk of my Mom's car. She evidently had a prying device (i.e. a crowbar) in her trunk and they began to totally annihilate the weather stripping of my dilapidated automobile. Enter some random white guy in a red pickup truck with two kids. He asked if we needed a slim jim which he had. We said "sure"... we could certainly use whatever help we could get believe me this car is bastardly to break into. Without success the white guy couldn't get in so my mom and the black guy continued to pry the side of my locked door open eventually getting the lock on the inside to come loose and unlock. With a wink and a smile the whole situation was over and I was free to roam the earth again in the fastest hunk of junk in my garage.

Odin?


Yeah...Odin. My Einherjar LS, Valgrind, should (hopefully) be fighting this asshole in the coming week. That's next Sunday. We actually managed to beat the chamber we could never win in Foodmonsters, that being Gerhilde's Chamber so we are ONE win away from being able to fight Odin. I've read quite a bit about what to expect and it would seem that especially on the melee's part that they need meds of all kinds including poison pots, holy waters, icarus wings, and possibly remedies. BLMs supposedly have cruddy damage on it so we'll opt to bring Summoners and regular ole' melee to get the job done. He has 100k HP, and we have 30 minutes to complete that mission. I want him dead in less than that. I am very proud of the fact we have come so far in Einherjar and hopefully we'll be one of the first on our server to down him. We just need open ears and people willing to work as a team to be there ready to have some fun.

Zeni NMs: My Thoughts

SE in their infinite wisdom decided to release a new NM system with the last version update we had on June 19th and I have to say it's pretty fun. It involves farming points via taking pictures with a Soultrapper (Hello, Pankration!) of monsters in order to receive pop items. At first I thought this was really lame and not fun at all, but it is pretty fun to be perfectly honest, it's something you can do for thirty minutes and stop. It's really the most casual NM system SE has released yet.

There are five tiers to the system and a boat load of NMs in each tier. As to be expected as your progressively go up the ladder the NMs get harder. Most tier 1 and 2s are a joke, but Tier 3s have a few absolutely retarded hard ones. Like Experimental Lamia...

Most of the rewards are pretty lame but I welcome new things to fight.

We (my LS and I) managed to get a set together for the Tier 4 Khimaira named Tyger, I'll have to let everyone knows how it goes when we do it on Saturday!
