A wild acroline in Shabby. I went there around 3:30 eastern and I am still standing on line at 5:40 eastern.

Waiting for Acro

January 9, 2009 Tonight was fun. One of my favorite tests opened up, cicada hunting. I promised myself I would find one cicada and head home. Well, I did find a cicada, but an impromtu acro party started at the Falcon Bay chariot stop so of course I went. I learned a new move from Bender, so a big shout out to him. I taught my 105th facet and a big shout out to me. After the acro party I hopped on the chariots to get back to my little compound to build a locker for my beetles. Now I realize that I had better get moving on making glass or I will never have anything I need to build more stuff, and we all know how important all that stuff is. Stuff, it's like time, we never have enough of it. Have a good night all, see you tomorrow when the snow is coming down in New York City.

January 7, 2009 OK, so I lied. She didn't take the night off because she knows she has no time and has to make time. It was work work work. But I did make a 7K carp blade on my 4th try, so it was worth it.

January 6, 2009 BooBoo's human is tired tonight because there is no TIME. Time, time to make cc, time to expand compound, time to update her ATITD 4 book that is sitting on the computer desk, time to mine, time to make stuff to get skills, AND time to go to work to support herself and me of course. There is no time. So tomorrow night she is taking a break from ATITD so she can take care of some stuff that she really doesn't want to do because she needs more time to do stuff in ATITD. ... and you, kind person, who has come to the blog to read this, have a great evening and day doing all the things that BooBoo really wants to do. :) (big smile)

January 5, 2009 YAY I taught my 100th facet this evening to Kathy by UWshp in Saqqarah. We were both masters to each other. So a big SHOUT OUT to Kathy, thank you so much. Tonight is carpentry blade night. I'm just looking to make the lead thingy and I am done with the tools. I'm going to try to make a carp blade anyway tonight because I never used the lead thingy anyway last tale. Good luck to all the blacksmiths tonight.

January 4, 2009 So many things going on. Where do I start? After 11 days vacation, the human sadly sat down at the puter today for her last day of gaming. Mostly it will be for a bit at night during the week now so she is sad. All of a sudden the event channel lit up and there was Sami talking about a Phoenix Race. So I completely missed the first one and silly me used up all my travel time going to 3 of the Phoenix stadiums without realizing I should conserve my 16 hours free tt. So I gathered myself together with my 3 stadium models and pepper seeds and withdrew from the rest of it. Very sad, indeed. If I had conserved better on my tt, all would have gone well I believe. Of course while running to the Saqqarah Phoenix Stadium, I picked up casting. Now with free time on my hands I built a Masters Casting Box and built my first kettle. In hopes that Advanced Blacksmithing comes around soon, (Carpentry Blade here I come) I built an anvil for future use. Now with the Casting Box and all the other forges all that comes to mind is charcoal. Fortunately the one thing I'm pretty good at is my charcoal hearth. So charcoal it is for the next few nights. Enjoy the evening and great big congratulations to all the winners in the Phoenix Race that I had so much fun doing even for the short time.

January 3, 2009

Ok, now is later. cory0210 did a great job on P! channel moderating tonight. So a big shout out to cory. While listening to the discussion I fished a bit and think I threw my back out.

Fishing

Then an announcement came onto the System chat about picking up our otters. So i warped back home and picked up Yogi who I had left out and then dropped him to do some more training in back flip.

Training Yogi

All in all it was a lovely evening. The human had a few drinks out and dinner with a gentleman friend and she called it a night early for a change.

I spent the day shrooming, foraging, wood runs, iron ore, and basic running around. While running for some white sand, I fondly remembered cicada hunting last tale. I could forage while finding that perfect place for my cicada, and hunt down other people’s cicadas while checking the ground for various animals working on the safari test. All of my favorite things to do are still to come, and I am anticipating the wonderful moment that Teppy aka Wahim aka Sami tells us, The Test for Safari or Cicada is open. While daydreaming about all of this I was grateful that I had brought along a grilled pepper to pick up the white sand and made sure my pocket was full before I zapped back to my little abode. Unfortunately for me, but fortunately for my human, she is going out AGAIN tonight. So I will miss the acro/dig that I overheard in E! Enjoy the evening and if she gets home early enough then maybe I will bump into you later. :-)

The Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center was beautiful last night. My friend and I stopped at Alfredo of Rome for dinner at 4 West 49th Street and had a great dinner although the atmosphere was kind of not that great. The dark chocolate mousse ended up keeping me up all night because I was sugar rushing. When I got home I wound up on a great acroline in Shabby. There were lots of stations of new people that I hadn't acro'd with before. I was bestowed with my second move - Lunge - and was happy as mousse. There was nothing better than seeing my master Astrina with 12 moves now and she provided me with quite a number of facets. A big thank you to Astrina for being so patient with me.

January 1, 2009 Great acro party in Shabby. Very well organized and a brand new group of people I had never seen before. I have taught a total of 89 facets and dreams of being Pharaoh's Acrobat are in the wind. Tonight I am working on building my food tent. Foraging is a great hobby with me and I plan on working on my cooking skills this tale. I hope that everyone had a safe New Year's Eve. Tomorrow there will not be a blog as I am going with a friend to see the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center and then going to enjoy a nice dinner. Yes, BooBoo lives in the suburbs of New York City, so it's time to enjoy some of the city life, even if only for one night. :-)
