new account

I'll be working on this more later, but for now, I've created a new account devoted only to this blog and w101 related items. I'll have to wait and see if this is going to cause any issues.

I'm doing this so:

I can keep personal stuff seperate
any e-mail generated will go to the new account
I can keep this blog fun... I said FUN! Yay!
other issues can be addressed

I don't think this will actually cause any notable differences on the part of followers or readers
W101 related blogs will be removed from my original account. They are already being followed here, I hope!

need blogger help and beaches

Heya guys!

I'm curious about people who blog for our most excellent game and if you manage other un-related blogs under the same account? I'll be looking around at other help tools for answers, but I wanted some input from my friends here.

Also my absence lately is because my family called and asked if I wanted to go to Panama City Beach with them. I just complained to Terry that I don't really get a vacation, since to most people I don't actually DO anything (like the 2-4 hours of animal care and then regular chores don't count) And they called right after! LOL! We headed out the next weekend, picked up Logan Spiritsword on the way, and proceeded to have a blast! It was nice to come home, though. It's taken me a few days to get back in the routine. My nephew was there and he gave me some basic tips on how to work with gimp and we also played with the wacom abit. I hope to do some good pieces to spruce up this ol' bloggy page, so stay tuned for that!

I guess that's it. Hope to cya ITS!

frostzilla and unicorns!

With the new updates, I went after the Frostzilla last night. Only took four tries, yay! I gave up on the diseased wildclaw and just bought it. Oh well.
OK, I also bought a unicorn mount, *girlie squee* Spent some crowns on gifts to the boy's account. Having a stack of crowns is fun, LOL!
I'm thrilled with the reduction on hatching costs. I haven't gone there yet.

Mostly, the boy has gone "home". Um, this is "home", but that is too. We spent time on the game and hopefully we can keep that up. At least until school starts. I'm missing him already.

Here's a couple o'links:

And the Robot Unicorn Attack- It's mega-puking kyute!

Tomorrow's another day. Today, actually. Hmmm. I guess I'd better do something about that. G'nite!

Dragon*con 2010

Just checking:

I was going through the guest list, but didn't see anything. Does anyone know if there will be a wizard101 meetup or panel? I'll be asking around on other forums. It would be great to get together with you guys!

laptop

I just gotta say,
I lovelovelove this laptop! I'm still getting used to it all. But a quick couple of tries for the diseased wildclaw have gone by swiftly. Some aspects need tweaking, like the backlit keyboard. It's rough on my old eyes!

new goodies!

The boy and I got the $10 Blockbuster card, so I have a new dragon!

Today was really busy. We upgraded all the e-toys around here. Tomorrow will prolly be spent getting stuff hooked up. Question: Have you ever gone out to buy something that was reasonably priced for something you just have fun with, and end up buying ... well. We went to buy the hubby his new laptop and me something for playing Wizards, but nothing fancy. Not fancy=not expensive or elaborate or super powerful. I don't need anything MORE. I had something reasonable picked out, and the hubby said I needed something faster. We looked at something else and I said if we were going to get the #2 we might as well get two of his choice. So... I have no idea what all it does or what the specs mean, but I guess it's a pretty darn good laptop*.
The bestest thing is I got a Bamboo Fun. It looks like it's gonna be a blast! I've been told for years I should get a Wacom tablet. EEEE! It has great reviews and it may be what I need to kick start my artist creative part that's gone walkabout in the past few years. I've already been thinking about my supplies and papers lately. I don't know, but if it can just be fun again, then that would be awesome!

Let's hope I still have time to play after all these goodies!
And I did purchase the crowns deal and we did go to see (Avatar) The Last Airbender

*To clear up some of my simple-brainedness, I have some medical issues and the meds I take mess up my memory. I can no longer access some of the skills I used to have. Processing is "off" so instead of going from a to b to c, somethings skip a or b and get c backwards. That sort of thing. Really frustrating since I know I used to know things.

Stone update

Nothing like a straight 12 hours sleep to make me less cranky! Really. I have to sleep alot. It's a wezl thing.

It looks like there is some fix to the Use the Stone part. I missed it but the boy got through it fine. He spent most of the day with Taryn and Logan S. having a great time roaming through the test realm. I spent the day playing grown-up. Meh. Someone has to do it, I guess. I hope tomorrow isn't so busy!
