Exploring more on Free to play

I love Twitter. I pretty much have an addiction to it. I spent 8 days at a girlfriend’s this month. She had neither cable nor internet. It was like living in the dark ages! Ok, that’s probably a little melodramatic, but can I say that based on the experience I may have noticed I twitched for my phone on a regular basis to check twitter, my email...

I’ve had a busy summer.  So many games, so little time.   I can feel the fall nip in the air here at the beach at last.  I am so grateful.  As I type out this blog, I have all the windows in my house thrown open to welcome the breeze. Mostly what I’ve been up to is Everquest II while huddled under the fan blades escaping the sweltering heat. ...

The website upgrades are finished.  I hired someone to help me this time, and saved myself a lot of headaches.  It’s very very pink, no?  I love it, and am hopeful it is easier to read, navigate and enjoy!

Our static group logged into DDO with great excitement tonight.  Dreams of airships and fun new quests had us all logging in as soon as we could to get the party started.

I’ve been playing tons of LOTRO lately.  Maybe it’s the impending shadow of the changes coming to game, or perhaps its just that I am having a blast. I won enough items on my Runekeeper to dress her as a pirate.  Argggg!!!  The costume’s in LOTRO are simply stupendous, and I have a mule holding a ton of outfits. One really fantastic feature...
