Have a seat, and cut yourself off a slice. 
 
Not sure what Nexus has in store for me today, hard to tell as it is only a little after 5am here. I do plan on popping on to say hello though.

			:O please say you own that cup and know where I can get one!!??

Good Morning Everyone!
 
I had a very busy weekend, so no WildStar was had :( But I did get you all coffee!
 
Hoping to be able to log in tonight, now that the family has gone back their homes. It was a fun weekend but I need a week to recover!
 
Hope you all had a great weekend and a wonderful day!!

Hoooboy.  This weekend was a weird one, and it feels like it's still going.  So how about that breakfast.
 
 
So...  Thanksgiving was a little odd because my wife was out of town.  It's the first Thanksgiving I've had without her since I was in high school.  We had turducken in a bacon wrap cooked by my brother in law (excellent) and I contributed by cooking fudge after dinner.  Then most of the real adults left, and us fake adults watched Dredd.  That movie is excellent!  I was also supposed to help my mother in law put up lights the next day, but I was asked to come help pick up the new PA I'll be mixing for.  My wife wasn't happy about that, but my mother in law kind of cut us loose until Saturday to do that.  While at Guitar Center, she kind of made it up to me by buying me my birthday present, a six-string, spalted maple, ETC bass with dual pickups and active electronics.  The best instrument I've ever played, much less owned.  I played that the majority of the weekend instead of Wildstar.
 
Saturday, though, we found out my wife's grandmother was in the hospital suddenly, and in a matter of a few hours got the news that, though they're working on the specifics of the prognosis, she has a fairly pervasive and aggressive form of ovarian cancer that appears to have spread.  She's taking it pretty well.  She's 77, misses her husband, and I suppose she's ready to go.  She's decided against any kind of treatment and is instead just putting her affairs in order.  Apparently, those affairs include making sure my wife and I get ownership of her condo, so we'll no longer be renting an apartment.  That's fantastic news, but sort of a sad way to become a homeowner.
 
Luckily, I did get to play some Wildstar over the weekend, though late at night.  I ran a few random queued STLs just to maintain good habits, and one night since I was on alone (it was like 2am), I got to jump on Trajan Spenser and work some Dominion Blighthaven.  I think, unless I hunt down someone to do the group quests with over there the next time I can magically appear on Domside, I'm set to go into the Defile next.  Also, I did a little more detail work on the Shadowcaster.  Hopefully, that will be done this week!  It's open for business now, so if anyone wants to see it, feel free to drop in (it's public and on Nightengale Donne's plot).  Also, if you're in the Blazing Saddles, feel free to RP there at your leisure and bring who you like; it's also yours, after all.
 
Tonight, I might not be on until later.  I'm taking a friend over to my parent's house, since he might want to buy the electronic drum kit my stepfather doesn't really need anymore.  Hopefully, I'll be home later and I'll have some time to help out with more people's five mans on Entity tonight.  See you on Nexus!

Also Good morning everyone! Hope you're well, had a nice thanksgiving holiday weekend, and just doing lovely overall*hug*
 
Weekend has been rather fun in Wildstar and I'm fitting into my new work schedule pretty well without much hassle too. Gave a friend a 7day pass I had laying around so they can check out the game and hoping they'll stick around as I think they'll enjoy it here.  Weekdays will probably be really rough to wiggle in playtime though at all until Christmas i seems as exams and last minute work orders come in around this time. Though also it could be the opposite where people are in perma holiday vacation mode like the other year and we get no work orders until next year(calm before the storm situation really lol) Either way vacation was way too short T_T
 
Wildstar wise I think i need 1 or 2 more R12 events to max out, I started working on Wildstar art again...starting off with a Mechari vs Mordesh piece, then doing a Chua vs Aurin next. I'll post the draft later when I get home.
 
I got a TS server for Red Bastion,tinkering on a site for us, and I've been loosely tinkering with our RP as a guild.
 
@Vic- I'm sorry to hear of your wife's grandmother's condition, I know it can be a bit rough. Though I'm glad to hear she's handling it well*hug* I know it's also a sad way to become a homeowner, but think of that she loves and cares enough about you both to do it. Sorry, I'm really terrible at these things, but if I can help in anyway feel free to give me a poke.

Morning everyone.
 
Vic, That's a lot to have happen during the course of a single weekend.  I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother-in-law, but I'm glad that she's handling it ok.
 
What I did in Wildstar this weekend.  I was offline all day Thursday for Thanksgiving Day stuff.  Friday we did an Adventure Day, where we just ran bunches of adventures - I think I got in two vet war of the wilds, a vet siege, a vet crimelords, and a vet malgrave personally.  The guild kept going after I stopped and did one more vet malgrave, two normal malgraves, and I think a normal crimelords as well.  Everyone has a bunch of fun when we do Dungeon Days or Adventure Days, so we keep doing them :)
 
Saturday I didn't do much - we did an unscheduled vet STL run to see how we could do.  We didn't finish Stormtalon but we got more practice in on the fight.  Eventually we'll manage to keep everyone alive enough to get him down.  While we were doing that, the rest of the guild was off doing normal mode adventures and a few normal dungeon runs too - apparently, they got hooked on Friday and just kept going.  Also on Saturday a bunch of guildies had a christmas tree party on Bitbit's housing plot, where they all brought a decor item to use as a tree ornament.  I missed it because I was offline doing RL stuff at the time, but they had a blast.  I love my guild ;)
 
Yesterday was more of the same, with groups kicking off for adventures and dungeons throughout the day - there was also a *bunch* of housing and RP going on.  We have three or four people working on amazing stuff on their housing plots right now and everyone was pitching in to help.  Then to finish off the night, we ran a vet KV.... and we cleared it.  We downed Drokk and kept right on going to take down Trogun.  What an awesome way to finish off the weekend - our first ever guild vet dungeon clear :)  Next weekend we'll finally get that pesky Stormtalon down.  Then a few more runs to make sure we can do it consistently and we'll start working on Skullcano!
 
Also did some administrative stuff over the weekend - I posted requirements for our raid team, which we'll start working on in January-ish, and we started talking among our officers about setting up a guild PvP team.  There's more stuff on the horizon too - we're kicking off a massive RP thing for the guild this weekend.  It'll be a series of linked interactive RP events organized into "episodes" that we think will work really well.  And, starting the very early prep work for ThaydFest II - we'll start working on prizes and event planning after the holidays, but I have to get myself organized for it first, so doing that now.
 
For now though, back to work.  No Wildstar for me till Wednesday.  I may sneak in to try to get a data fragment but that'll be about all I can do.	
----
			Thanks for everyone's well-wishes.  I'll pass them along.  Oddly, what was on my list for Metal Monday this week is the Deathstars.  So I can go ahead and flush my credibility down the toilet... and then the Deathstars will record it and use it to make a song I like.

Gonna +1 to this 'cause I can't say it better.
 
Saturday I did the CB and NW dailies and some of the Defile ones.  Made a halfhearted attempt to do the horridly designed bear one, but couldn't find any of the required mobs in a circuit of the area so just abandoned it.  And memo-to-self:  At least the puzzle mission will fail if you don't turn it in before going back to Thayd :angry:
 
That left me sitting in my housing plot trying to work up the motivation to do Lightspire, R-12 or maybe see if I could get a Vet. Adv. group.  As I was contemplating what to do next I looked at my outdoor bar and thought... "That's just sad looking". 
 
Now the genesis of said bar was me looking up how to optimize the housing rested xp bonus.  While I never really got into housing here I can't just plop stuff down randomly and call it a day so I designed an outdoor bar using the items I hadn't had yet.  One didn't make sense so that's elsewhere.  So yeah, it was pretty sad looking.  "How about I do... this, hrm and this, and..."  Five hours later and this monster patio has emerged.  Not really a patio, more like a plaza.  And I was back at it on Sunday <_< ... and it still needs more work.  *mutters* :D
 
Since this new addiction is eating my capital I think some of tonight is going to be dedicated to doing dailies.

For those who don't know already, I live in the spider capital of the world. Now, sure, I know that there are probably other places in the world that have more spiders. However, those are remote places where you don't have to worry about them.
 
However, my spiders are very much part of my every day life. You'd think that, considering the frigid temps, I'd get a respite. And I thought so too.
 
Until I saw this little guy making a web between my monitors. I'm a clean person so, it's not like the web has been there from before. No, he's making it in full view of me sitting here. Literally, in the real sense of the word literally, he's right in my face.
 
I like spiders. I'm not a spider hater, but there's gotta be bounderies in this relationship. I don't care if you make them in the dark recesses of my cabinets. Not in the face.
 
Please... not in the face.

			He was probably hoping to get some net time in when you weren't using the computer, Rocio.  After all the cats do it all the time, why shouldn't spiders? ;)

Maybe they thought you might like a little company so they set up an area next to you.
Cute little kawaii spider "I hope Rocio-Senpai notices me!"
 
 
Speaking of wireless though, I had no idea this was a thing until a recent doctors visit, because I was having some really bad headaches. However they out of the blue asked if I always have my wifi on and told me to turn it off when I'm not using it. I was really skeptical at first, but I started turning it off before bed or when I'm not playing my 3ds, etc...my headaches started going away over time and became less.
 
Maybe just coincidentally something else, but it seemed to help a lot.

What a good doctor to pin point it so fast! :O That guys a keeper.
 
In Wildstar News, I've almost capped rep on the Defile. Only a couple more dailies left and I'll be done with that area. :)
