As a mentioned a while back, I haven’t been posting a lot. Some of this is to do with this being a bit of a stressful, busy and distracting time in my life, and me feeling a bit drained as a result. But there’s another reason:

Torchlight is the reason. The whole idea of retiring your character to get a super-improved heirloom to pass down to a new character has me stuck in some infinite loop. The first go-’round was Simon and Garfunkel (by the way having pets take your stuff into town is the bomb). The second was Simon and Kamina – you get a virtual cookie if you are the first to name the reference along with some indication that you are familiar and not just a Google whiz. Actually, I’ll give you a virtual cookie and anything currently sitting in my Goodwill box, which I think currently contains two pairs of women’s shoes, an art book, a film book, hair clips and a couple shirts. Maybe there’s something cooler, but I doubt it. And I am too lazy to go check. Anyway. By the third round of Simon, I had to use Wikipedia to do a bit to searching before settling on Simon and Simon, referencing a TV show that I have never seen. But it has a 7/10 on IMDb.

Simon III will probably be my last run for a while, at least as an alchemist. I will roll a new one to see how the heirloom turned out and to free up the shared item trunk, but I think I am just about played out. Simon III, pictured above is level 18 and has more than 35% chance to crit. I feel like I’ve basically got it down to a science. So then I guess it will then be time to delve back into the world of Minecraft. Oh, and blog more. That, too.
