I'm at a point in my life (preceding a blog with this phrase makes it sound deep and important) where I don't have much time for FFXI. I'm working hard and saving up RL Gilz for RL equipment and mog housing (sans the cute flying thing {do they ever poop in the mog house?}). Aside from that, I find myself spending more time out with RL shell-mates, grinding out RL party exp (lulz i r funy) and trying to spend quality time with myself.

I'm wondering if I'm over FFXI. But I can't be! I can't even think of deleting my character of suspending my account. Is it the comfort that I draw from being able to jump into Vana'diel whenever the hellz I wantz? These days I find that I hop on just to chat with friends, but I can hardly ever get anything done.

To Do list:
Alchemy to 100+?
DRG to 75
SMN to75 (and subs to 37)
Craft subs to 60
Fishing for gilz
Nyzul
Finish Valor set

This is a pretty daunting list but it's really something I've wanted done for a loooong time now. I just can't seem to find the motivation. My linkshell's recently taken a dive since I've found the members really just aren't motivated to get things done. As soon as I had to go on a hiatus, my sacks just threw in the towel. I have to say that was pretty disheartening, especially since we were doing so damn well in such a small time frame.

I guess the thing to do is disband the shell, and just try to wrap up my soloable goals. Someday, maybe I'll just join up with a well established End-game LS and grind out points and earn some phatty lewtz.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I can't quit you, FFXI (Is it too early? Was that in bad taste? It was a great film! Consider it an homage!)

Someone share your FFXI ebbing and flowing stories! Holler at your boy and let him know everyone has their ups and downs!

PS WotG has slowly turned sour with the lack of content and mega-updating. But I cling to hope and cross my Elvaan ears with hope.
