thistlechaserRL: Discovered a cool British TV show. Hex! Watched the first 6 or so eps today, have the rest(?) on Tivo. Very cool! And so very unlike US TV! Girls making out! Liberal use of 'fuck' and 'shit' (and oddly only bleeped out in some eps).
FFXI: I forgot just how fun DRKing is! We camped and fought some NM tonight (I think it's supposed to be a secret, so no name or screenshots even though I took some!). Three of us (NIN, WHM, me/DRK), and it gave us ~160 XP, so it was big! And man, it was fun to go (almost) all out on DRK! I even Drain II+Souleater+Blood Weaponed! (Too bad it did an AOE knockback/stun TP move and I lost half the time on that. c.c )
Unfortunately the NM didn't drop what we were after (which apparently has never been gotten on this server yet, and only once on two other servers), but man was that a fun fight! I'm supposed to be in bed about now, but I'm bouncing all over the place!
We were talking about BRD on LS, and I mentioned how I really still don't like the job much. I can't name one time I've really and seriously had fun on BRD, but every time I go out on DRK to a big/serious fight I love it! I love being not just able to stun, but good at it! (Nevermind that the NM's moves were too fast to stun tonight. *cough*) And I love having so many tools to DD with!
And, oddly, I really really really love the idea of dying to do a lot of damage (even though mean ol' Dani didn't let me die! <3 ). That's odd because dying on-game is something I avoid if at all possible (before Besieged was added into the game, I had just over 100 deaths for 2 years of playing), but to do it 'in the line of duty' makes it not just okay, but a good thing!
*bouncie* Yay DRK!
