*falls over dead* (FFXI, uninteresting FFXI)

[thistlechaser]

Total waste of a day. I felt like crap all day, thus got nothing done online or off. I actually sat in my mog house for five hours straight doing nothing. x.x

Finally a Besieged hit and we lost bad and fast. Level 5 Savages, 250 in the zone (350 by the final CS). Generals fell one by one, and less than 60 seconds after the fifth one fell, the Candysense was taken. The first time I've been involved in a loss (and loss number ... 5? for our server).

NIN/NIN/BRD/WHM static after that. We rocked the jungles. Got two levels in just over two hours, including travel time. How is it that on Saturday I thought the job was so busy? Tonight I was falling asleep. Sing two songs on the melees, sing a song on the "mages" (WHM and me), sing one song directly on the WHM, sing one song on the mob, cast Dia... and that's it. I was backup healer, but with NIN, NIN, and THF/NIN, almost no healing was needed from me. Does BRD get busier later? Not counting pulling?

That ended almost three hours ago, and I've been sitting in my mog house since then, bored out of my mind. Caught up on my flist (*sob!* What am I going to do at work tomorrow?), read every webpage I could think of checking.

On one hand I wish I had gone out shopping or something today, but I didn't feel up to doing anything more than sitting in my chair and doing nothing. Worst part is there was nothing on TV all day! Since 8 AM, not one single show I wanted to see (and Tivo is long since emptied). I can't say I'm looking forward to going to work tomorrow, but at least it'll be something to do. Just hope I'm feeling better by then.

Wow your server lost =\

Mine hasn't yet, kinda happy about that, I warped back from a good xp PT on my COR (18->22) to find i was stuck in besieged again, undead swarm, so i used my whm sub to cast cure and cure2 on everyone I could, rest and repeat (I had like 80 mp total). We got close to losing, 1 general left, but we won and I got 700 xp on a lvl 22 job o.O

Sorry you didnt get as much done and just sat on your moghouse.
One way to avoid it is when you are bored at work, write down every thing you could do in ffxi when you have spare time, plan it kinda, crafting, flagging quests, soloing a job (as in my LJ entry hehe), and try to think of the most efficient way to fit them all together productively.
That way when you log on if you don't feel like winging it or just sitting you have a whole plan that you can start enacting =P

Happy 4th

Wow, congrats on getting full reward at such a low level! We have a few low level melees who go in as /mage and cure the whole time and also get full reward. And woo on not having lost yet, either! (But at least you still get some reward when the Candysense is taken. 50% of level max. We all got 350 for a level 5.)

Yeah, a list would be a good idea. And happy 4th (eh, 5th now :P ) to you, too!
