May Rollup

What a busy month!  I can’t believe how much I’ve neglected writing in the blog, so I’m gonna blame work for that! 😛  I’ve been really busy trying to put together purchase plans and distributing and configuring new computer systems for the library that my time has just disappeared on me.  By the time I get home I just wanted to vedge in front of a game or do some reading. On the gaming front, I was jumping into WAR fairly regularly, playing both my Order and Chaos toons.  Then … Continue reading

Musical Tarot

I’ve actually been thinking about doing something like this (associating songs to Tarot cards)  for awhile now.  I think my first notes on the subject come from sometime last year, and since reading through the Thursday Night Tarot, I’ve been inspired to take up the project again.  Here’s what I’ve come up with so far.  This is just a “first draft,” so to speak, so it will probably change quite a bit from any “final version” I eventually work out… The Fool (alternate) [Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (alt: Windy) Magician (Magic Man) … Continue reading

Monthly Roll-Up . . . a little late

OY!  It has been totally crazy around my neck of the woods and I feel like I haven’t had any time for myself or to do things that I enjoy, like posting to the blog!  At least we were able to fill the open position at work in my dept. so hopefully things won’t be quite as fever pitch as they’ve been – but the new person won’t be starting for another couple of weeks.  So until then, things are probably going to keep up the frantic pace, after that, … Continue reading

Busy – My new “norm state”

Work is just over the top busy lately so I haven’t had a lot of time for gaming nor blogging.  I did get the latest update to EVE online the other day, and was able to login to keep my training plan up-to-date on my latest endeavor: covert-ops.  Naberius now has the skills to fly a “Buzzard,” but he still needs to up his training in Cov-Ops so he can use and fit a cov-ops cloaking device.   Once I get that done, he’ll move back to training up even more probe skills while … Continue reading

Mid Week doo-dah

I’ve actually been getting a few things done through the week that I was hoping I would be able to.  I’ve started writing out character bio’s for my novel’s main characters and I’ve also been doing a little bit of gaming here and there to boot! In CoH I’ve mainly just been messing around with the character creator – definitely one of the best implementations in MMO-land. I created a cheerleader villain (aren’t they all?) named “Snobbie Bobbie”, complete with the “Pink Pom-Poms of Death/Doom.” And a leopard themed toon as well, which I did … Continue reading
