Throwing the night away (RL, FFXI)
Jul. 12th, 2006 09:46 pmRL: Been a really rough week. I'm having some sort of sinus thing going on (infection? worse allergies than usual?), and every time I lay down my throat gets all clogged up and I can't breathe -- feels like I'm choking. This of course makes sleeping hard. I've gotten three hours or so of very broken sleep each night for the past four or five nights. Blah. I might have to go to the doctor at this rate. :/
But good news as well! I've finally gotten back to exercising. Stopped a month (two?) ago, which is bad bad bad. This time I'm doing it at night instead of in the morning, and that seems to be working out well. When I did it in the morning, I kept wanting to cut it short because I felt like I should get to work. When I do it at night, I just lose gametime, which isn't a big deal since lately I haven't really wanted to do much at all. Plus at night there's a lot more interesting stuff to watch on TV, which keeps me distracted.
I'm loving this new miniseries on TNT, Stephen King's Nightmares and Dreamscapes. 45 minutes into the show, and zero dialogue! How cool is that?
FFXI: Due to lack of energy to do anything at all, I decided to go out skilling. I took my nifty new Rogetsurin and went to throw it at mobs. Got over 40 throwing levels, yay! Too bad it was boring as heck. Eventually I got bored enough to melee hand-to-hand as I threw it, to skill that as well. Got 40 levels of h2h in about a halfhour, when it took me nearly three hours to ger 40 levels of throwing. x.x
Doesn't the Rogetsurin (Haty drop) look cool? Don't mind my armor (yes, those are leather gloves c.c ), I grabbed whatever was in my safe since I knew the mobs wouldn't be able to hurt me.
No clue what I'm going to do tomorrow night or for the rest of the week. Luckily next week is more planned: Saturday and Tuesday XPing, Thursday Diabolos, and Friday skull hunting. Hopefully I can grab some people to go get an Ancient Salt at some point as well, since that's the last non-buyable item I need for the crown.
