Good morning...ish coffee people. I have for you this morning gingerbread biscotti with some kind of espresso-based holiday beverage. Very delicious. 
 
First, I guess I should bring the update! We had a great weekend of raiding and added a whole new group of people to our raid team. We also downed Volatility Lattice and the Air/Water pair, so we're 4/9! That was really exciting. Thanks to Chet (slyjeff) and vin for helping us out on Saturday night. I also got my 116 resonators, so that was about 400 more AP. 
 
Which bring me to the non-offensive name for the drink in my picture, "espresso-based holiday beverage." As I'm sure Tex understands, its the job of marketing and advertising people everywhere to carefully remove all warmth and joy from the holidays and replace it with bland consumeristic impulses. Can we come up with some protostar-driven names for traditional holiday products.

Ugh Christmas,
 
Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike Christmas, but it starts already half november with all the songs, decoration and "happy holidays"..
It's simply way too early for all that stuff....
 
Then again, I'm looking forward to the holidays though, because it means 2 weeks of vacation for me, and visiting my family again who live nearly 1000km away from me.
Yes, that's a lot for us Europeans :D
 
Still have to tell my mom I want a PS4 Headset....
But probably not going to be that easy :D

Good morning (evening)!
I need gingerbread cookies of any kind :P
 
In Sweden what we get as christmas special in terms of drinks are the mulled wine (glögg) flavour of the year. This year it's earl grey flavour:
 
 
Otherwise the most important thing to drink during christmas holiday is called julmust. Coca cola company has a problematic time that swedes abandon coke drinking during this time of the year and put it's best efforts to try to change that. I don't think they have had any luck yet :P
 
 
Otherwise, it's a new week and I'm working as usual :P Earlier today I finally got all chits for all three ships, so I'm done!!! A bit tired of expeditions now tbh... I don't mind if it's another year until next expedition event :) But it has been kind of fun, even though it has been quite a grind =)
So now I'm taking it easy a bit until winter event starts. Will be working, and do an assignment for university and I also still has christmas shopping left to do. Busiest time of the year... as usual =)

Good morning/afternoon all, 
 
Its getting to one of my favorite times of year as I think Christmas and New Year are fantastic. It shall be lots of rest, lots of food and as much alcohol as my liver can handle before the white flag goes up.  
 
Wildstar wise I have mainly been working on alts and getting them leveled up a bit more although I never realized that some quests instigate PvP out in the open world. I was running with my engineer the other day in Whitevale near the big crater looking thing at Raxen Holdout, seen this little Octopus looking creature that I grabbed the quest for that said something along the lines of use it on Dominion players or npc's.  Luckily enough for me there was a Dominion player running around who was a Stalker so I set little Octo onto him and then suddenly all hell broke loose, before I knew it my bots are attacking him and then he is attacking my bots and im like dont you dare touch my bots so I attack him and in the end he ends up dead.  
 
I was like wtf just happened......so if you were that Stalker I apologize as I never realized the quest would start a riot.....needless to say it got ditched before the thing got me into more trouble. I also tried my hand at some vet expeditions with my Stalker which turned out to be simple enough and fun, plus it got me some chips which in turn got me some ship decor so it was a win/win situation all round. Next stop is for me to look at crafting but I have purposely been avoiding it because I hate crafting in any MMO I play so I imagine it will be just as tedious in Wildstar, I normally just buy my items as its alot easier than watching paint dry.  
 
I am also loving how busy Entity is, as it is great seeing a ton of people around plus the AH is packed with stuff which would be even better if they would take a minute to sort out the UI as its awful trying to find what you want.

WOOOO I'M ON BREAK!
 
Well, sort of. I have to go to a staff luncheon tomorrow, and then Wednesday I need to go in for a couple hours to be "available" in case students ask questions about their exams (plus grade the exams), but... I think this counts as being on break! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
 
Good god, I needed it.
 
I'm soooo stoked for Winterfest, though my mind is still in "space chase" mode. I need to get at least 10 of... a lot of pieces, more than 10 of several, to hopefully accommodate future intended needs. So, uh, still got a lot of shiphand grinding to do.

For christmas......looking forward to the event.....
 
Nothing else really.....
 
Good topics as always.
