Sick Taru Saga

This is quickly becoming one of the most exhausting weeks on record.

Wednesday: Dynamorz – Qufim

DeAnn stayed at home with Clara Wednesday so I could get a whole day in. It’s going to be a slim couple of weeks if I can’t get some hours in. I stayed a little late and worked over half my lunch to make up some here and there.

We spent little time in game. We got the first item for our BLM artifacts before the dynamis run. The LS ran Dynamis – Qufim this Wednesday night. We got the win for several people there that needed it, and BST belt dropped, for which Keri won the lot. Maybe it was that I didn’t really want to be there, and would have rather been out doing BLM AF, but it just didn’t seem that we had our communication together. People didn’t know where exactly to go, and the chooser changed rapidly, sometimes with no chooser at all.

Thursday: Building the BLM Army

I stayed home with Clara today, and I got in some quality time in game and out. Started out in game after everyone had gone about their daily business. I logged myself, Keri and borrowed Talonshard’s THF for Treasure Hunter. Was kinda cool being one third of the linkshell. I took us about all of Vana’diel, gathering everything we’d need for BLM AF. By the time Clara woke up for midday, I’d gotten about half of what we will need to get us all in BLM AF.

Clara woke up midday in a puddle of sweat. Yes, sweat. Her fever had broken hard, and she was a very happy kiddo to see me. After a change of clothes, she sat down and ate two whole slices of buttered toast with a bit of cinnamon and sugar, and a whole sippy cup of milk and some apple juice. That was by far the most she’d eaten all week, and I was relieved to see it. We watched a little Blue’s Clues and played a game with a toy for a while. She likes to play this game where she’ll give you a thing (anything, really) and you take, tell her thank you, and then give it back to her so she can say thank you. Sometimes she won’t want it back and she’ll give a no thank you and shake her head. Absolutely adorable. After this, we took a trip out into the sun and fresh air and picked up a game from Blockbuster with a gift card that had been burning a hole in my pocket since December. She was ready for an afternoon nap by the time we got home.

Once she was down for a nap, I went out again to continue getting stuff for our 3 BLMs. I wasn’t long out, though, when Talon logged on. We tried getting the keys we needed from Davoi, but only got one before I had to log for the afternoon. After DeAnn got home, the kids fed and baby put to bed (still feverless, so we're trying the daycare thing tomorrow ^_^/ ), we gathered to try to get our static together for some experience. Unfortunately, no one was seeking that we needed, so we decided to finish off what we need for the BLMs. By the time we were done, the only thing left was an item from Crawlers’ Nest for Talonshard, and that was only because it just refused to rain and spawn the Water Elementals we would need. Now it’s time for coffer hunting. I checked quickly behind Banishing Gate #3 before logging off for the night. I’ll check again tomorrow before work and, if nothing still, again when I get home from work.
