Things that Make Me Go Zoom

    Finally!!! At long last I have finally completed the last of the achievements regarding all of the things transport wise [Time to Go]. As of last night I am the proud owner of a little orange vehicle which I have started to call Ember. I am very happy with all of this and am finally breathing a sigh of relief as this opens up a whole new level of achievements for me. I feel like I am finally balancing everything and moving forward.

    That being said, it has been a rough couple of weeks. Being a shining star at the Tower caused the powers that be to decide to nit pick now that there was a change over in the higher ups of the agents we deal with. I have been dealing with huge amounts of scrutiny and meetings almost every day with one of my higher ups to fix what was wrong. As of this morning I have just about made it back to where I should be and should only have a singular meeting left before I can leave all of that behind me.

    I also had a brief issue with my little Ember when I went to have it inspected so it is legal to drive. That too was fixed as of Wednesday. Hopefully all will be well with my little Ember car from now on.

    Needless to say, it was starting to cause my levels of stress to achieve legendary levels. Which we all know can lead to my shoulder acting up. It tried, but I have mostly defeated it by letting myself have time to relax and breath when I'm not dealing with the problems directly. Basically I cast a shield person on myself and just sat there when I wasn't in the fray of my daily battle.

    Despite all of this, I have known that it would all work out. Despite the upset, despite the frustration and of course all of the mire that life was trying to pull me back into. It is definitely a better state then I would have been in even a few months ago. Yay for learning!

    Now I leave you, yes I know it's a short posting today, but I'll have more to tell you all soon I think, here is a picture of my new little Ember car! Because hurray for little orange cars!!

I Just Need One More Bar....

    So close to another big achievement, I am at the point of finishing the tiny little quests where each turn in gets me just a small amount of XP closer to the flash of a banner lighting up in front of me. I am a jumble of emotions on this one. Excited, nervous, hopeful, grateful for everyone who's been helping me get here. All I can do is wait and hope and let the process be started and wait for it to finally click over into actually happening.
 
    I assure you all, that I will post again once this achievement has been unlocked. I am very excited about this. As it means it opens up a whole new quest / achievement line in this RPG called life. For example, it means I can open up the quest line, [Where the Heart Is] and [Freedom of Movement]. So many good things from it. Both my questing partner and myself are pretty excited about things coming down the line with this current achievement I'm nearing.

    It seems like things at the Tower may be expanding again as well, I am waiting for them to expand enough so that perhaps I can move a little higher in level here. Because I would definitely enjoy such things. While, I wouldn't keep seeing my paychecks go up and up and up, however, I would not have to deal with down time, under time or worrying when I'm not having the greatest of weeks on my numbers as I would be getting a regular amount of gold per hour. It does seem like it is coming down the line very soon.

    Still dealing with the weirdness from whatever global event has been cast on us lately. There's so many things that just seem to be going awry in general. I have been seeing how much this weirdness is effecting everything around us. Very strange indeed. I keep wishing I had a mass counterspell to help with all of it. As it really needs to stop.

    This week I do believe I am keeping this short and sweet. As there is work to be done here at the tower and while I'm on a break, I'd rather get back to it and get this day done with than just sit here staring at things. So until next time my dear fellow adventurers!
