Didn't play much EQ last week(end), but still a bit:

Wed: Friends and me did a quick Grobb MM and a DoN afterwards. Got exp worth 2 full AAs this evening, but was so tired that I removed the expedition from the quest window after the last DoN kill, not realizing that the last step (go to the exit) was still missing - no crystals for me. :-(

Thu-Fri: Business trip to Upper Austria, no internet. Played some Fahrenheit (a great adventure it seems) and installed LotR: Battle for Middle-Earth I.

Sat-Sun: Visited my in-laws and spent the weekend in the country.

Can't remember when, but levelled my baby chanter from 16 to 19, one level missing for his surname!

Friday: Worked on some AAs, got about 6. Still trying to get Combat Stability to a point where HoH mobs dont hit me for 400 anymore :p

Saturday: No EQ today. Traveled with the basketball team and watched them lose a tough game on the road.

Sunday: Pretty much spend the whole day in the bazaar and on alla looking up augments and trying to find out where some goodies drop. Its overwhelming sometimes...

Demi-lich skull cap questing continued. It's funny reading up about early stages of this quest and people talking about 130 people being in Lake of Ill Omen... think the most I have seen past 4 years is 5.

So glad I have a ranger alt --needed it to hunt down Red Eye Jack (3+ hours of PH chasing) and it was a challenge as some of the mobs in Fironia Vie were dicey for the ranger to drop.

Helped guildies with Epic 1.0 kills. I love visiting the Hole.

Didn't level or AA at all, but was fun times nonetheless.

Returned from FL in the middle of the week, only to come home to an ice storm that left me without power for 2 and 1/2 days...that SUCKED!

Got power back fri morn though. Husband out of town so I got some good play time in.

Dont remember all that I did, but got Rikki and Yar both dead on Sunday - still no luck on any of their drops though...lame dice. Pinged 400AA's and switched to reg xp...76 here I come.

Oh and today is a Presidents Day so may get some playtime in between cooking up a pot of chili and making chix salad with unanticipated thawed out meat I had to cook up.

FRI: Dinged 68 on the Druid and I am thinking its time to go back to the AA grind for a wile.....I may wait till the aa changes go live with the next patch. Ground out 5 aa's on the Nec. I recently transfered the Nec to another account and lost his ver rewards. The account he is on I have had running over a year. I spent the last 2 months petitioning eq to make the rewards active on the account. I had a GM contact me in game and he/she was professional and very helpful and I now have lesson again on my necro.

SAT: Ground a few AA's out on the Druid and 10 aa's on the Nec. I need to find a good spot for the Druid to hunt now. I tend to over stay in Zone once I find a comfortable rythem there. ANy idea for a 68 Druid to solo?

SUN: Dinged 66 on the Necro. Just spent Lesson on the Druid. Spent a little time in another game before watching several episodes of family guy.

The only EQ time I got this weekend was a brief log-in Saturday to go through my trader's inventory and do a run around in the barter hall cleaning out slots.

Thursday Attended 3/4 of the AG North raid before having to take off for hockey. Wife was also playing hockey so no special V-Day event for us. Besides, I try to make everyday V-Day for her. :) Oh, should mention the guild kicked serious butt in AG North taking down all but Lethar 2.0 with 39 people!

Friday Putzed around in EQ for an hour to do some combines on the shammy. Not much else but sleep as I'm sick. /cough

Saturday Sat down with the wife for an evening of EQ. Decided we just wanted to do our own thing so we each 2 boxed. The task for tonight was to wrap up some outstanding quests. Ruins of Illsalin to smack around the gargoyles for a bit. Then down to Stoneroot Falls to kill some shadowmanes. Hit the wall around midnight so went to bed.

Sunday The shadowmane portion of the quest wasn't done so we logged on and the RNG was quite nice to us. The task is to collect 20 teeth and it had taken us at least 15 hours to get the first 10. The last 10 all came within 2 hours so wife was quite happy. It was then raid time for me and we went and cleared FC1 and the first 2 events FC2. We should finish it off Tuesday night and probably have time for another target or two after. Maybe we will go visit Lethar 2.0.

That's about it for me.

Still caught up in replaying warlordsIV.
Thursday spent some time pumping out my cellar wich floods a bit when we have more than one day of rain. (No sump pump in a house from the 1920's.)
Friday had PT and am now beginning to walk on the injured leg. Stretching out the muscles can hurt! Did some reading and watched TCM.
Saturday went for a walk. Did some chores.
Sunday My mom came over and took us shopping. Bought a printer for our computers.
Went to lunch. Finally got into eq when I logged in Jonwin for a 2 hr session in drooga. No belt dropped.
