Thought I'd get out of this...

Because loneguardian is a big doodyhead, she tagged me to do this~

Once you've been tagged, you have to write a blog with 6 weird facts/things/habits about yourself, saying who tagged you. In the end you need to choose the 5 people to be tagged and list their names. No tag backs.

1) I don't eat meat. Thing is, I don't eat vegetables, either. So what do I eat? Be damned if I know...

2) I've lived alone all of my adult life, and I'm constantly talking and laughing out loud to myself. I see nothing odd about doing that, but I'm always having to be careful not to randomly laugh out loud at work for "no" reason.

3) I hate music. All music. All styles. Period. End of story. (I played FFXI silent for nearly a year and a half, then finally some of the music grew on me enough to listen to it in-game. I bought two FFXI CDs of music, but I found that outside of the game I fell back into my hatred of all music.) To me, music is just annoying noise.

4) I'm not worried about saving for retirement because I figure I'll be dead before I'm that old. Depressing but true.

5) If I could get a computer (with net connection) and a TV, I could be 100% happy in prison/solitary confinement. Or I could be alone on some island, or the last person within a 100 miles of me, or whatever. If I never had to interact with people face-to-face for the rest of my life, I'd be a happy camper.

6) (Perhaps related to #5..) I consider myself to be asexual. I'm not attracted to men or women. (Yeah, yeah, FFXI people are laughing right now. Shut up. :) ) The idea of marriage or a relationship boggles the hell out of me.

Hmm. I don't think I like this meme. It makes me sound like a freak. :P

Oh, duh, I almost forgot to pick five more people. (I always feel bad picking people, because I worry the people who don't get picked will feel bad. :( Sorry!)

Could have been a bad night, but was good! (FFXI)

Things didn't start out so great: Two hours seeking on BLU, no invites. (WTF? I thought I had given up on that kind of seeking!) Eventually an invite came in, and I set out for Crawler's Nest. I checked the party list as I rode. I was BLU 35, and there was a 38 member. WTF? And there were two 34 members, too. NIN tank... yet two WHMs. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over. But since it took so long to get an invite, I figured I'd give it a try.

Got out there to find the puller had pulled with only four members in the zone, got a link, died. (Remember that, that was to be the theme of the party!)

Eventually we all got there. Puller pulled. Got a link. Died. Pull #2: Puller pulled. Got a link. Died. Pull #3: Puller pulled. Got a link. Died. Pull #4: Puller pulled. Got a link. Died. Turns out the puller (party leader) and the party's tank were both playing some other videogame (PSO) while playing FFXI! Gah!

After those four fights and a near death for me (both WHMs Bene'ed at once allowing the DRG and myself to live through it, but no one else), I found a rep and beat feet out of there. Got less than 1K XP for my time, wasted a charge on my XP band, but at least I didn't die!

A Besieged was getting ready, so I headed out there and waited and waited and waited. Three hours later and it finally started! (The wait was fine and dandy. I watched TV, ate dinner, talked to people, generally relaxed.) It was a level 5 and we had less than 500 people in the zone, so I was afraid it would be worse than usual, but it actually was easier.

I was rolling along, hitting mobs, casting, doing my job, rubbing my hands together knowing I'd get 700 XP out of it... but little did I know what job of the mob I jumped was.



What do you get when you cross a 2HRing NIN and a Dark Knight's "wet paperbag" defense? A dead DRK! Hee! Luckily, even though the damned mobs kept dispelling it, my reraise was on at the time so I got myself up and off into a corner to sit.

I "only" made 526 XP out of this, but that's fine! Great! I had oodles of fun! (We had lots of people there who we don't usually have! Ni and Chip! And Yossy! And Draque made it again! Plus the more regular Aurian, Des, and Woman!) And the game didn't crash once for anyone that I saw! :D

Ead: Here's the screenshot you wanted. ;) Such a troublemaker am I~!

*bounciebouncie* Now I don't want to sleep. Besieged is the best idea S-E ever introduced: It's amazingly fun, very challenging, but more than that: You can play it however you want! Use whatever subjob you want! Party, solo, or ally! Throw yourself at mobs or be more cautious! And everyone (everyone! PCs and NPCs!) work together towards a common goal! And it's so cool that they made it challenging to level 75 people! And it's exciting! And fun!

Can you tell how much I love it? :D
