Cleaning Day

I resumed my role as the "Cleaning Nazi" Saturday morning. After the family visits and the holidays, our house was a wreck. I asked DeAnn and Colin what their cleaning goals were for the day, and after we agreed on what needed to be done for the day, I set a timetable of no longer than 4 hours and we set to work. Only took us about 3 hours. Cleaned up and aired the place out - so much better than before!

We got back from our WalMart run just in time to head to Dragon's Aery for another shot at Fafnir. I brought ingredients for Insect Balls, so in between spawn windows I was fishing up Moat Carp left and right. Fafnir popped on the last possible window. Our linkshell got the claim, but since no one plays fair if they can help it in this game, everyone else crowded our claim and lagged us so bad that we could not target. We lost claim to another LS, who got Spike Flailed (LOL!) who lost claim to a known botting LS. Bots don't need to see to target, so they never lost claim and eventually killed it. There was much GM calling and exchanging of nasty words, but I felt ok - I did after all fish up 15k in Moat Carp. -.^

After the dragon, Keri and I geared up our BLM's for a night of leveling. We put together a pretty decent party: PLD, WHM, RDM, DRK and BLMx2 (us). We started in Crawler's Nest, but all the prey there was a little too weak for us. We decided to try the Goblins at the Ifrit's Cauldron zone in Yhoator Jungle, but our PLD didn't tell us he didn't have that crystal. -.- My Lv1 mule has that crystal! Quick change of plans had us leveling in the Labyrinth of Onzozo. I've never leveled there at that level, but the Cockatrice and Goblins there made for very nice chains and soon we'd almost made 2 levels. We'll go out again soon and get it.
