Journal: Internet connections

So I’ve been putting up with my parent’s DSL internet which one of their phone filters is bad. I get disconnected every time the phone rings.


I’ve done the Flickr photo album for my Biltmore trip</a. Wish there was a better way to embed this in WordPress.com.

Just been playing

So I got an idea of how to show all my Covet Fashion stuff off without spamming all those who don’t want to see everything. Using Twitter (which my phone posts to) and IFTTT I’ve set up easy posting to



Still looking for an option to auto-post to Instagram….

Journal: Moving again

Don’t you just hate moving? I do too, but I do it approximately every 3 months. Because it comes with my job as a travel nurse.


1. I have too many clothes. I have 1 large storage container of scrubs. Another of just undergarments. Another of casual clothing.


2. I have 2 laptops. Yes, I got rid of the desktop, but I now have 2 laptops, a PC and a Mac. The Mac is my primary, but there are some things I just need a PC for.


3. I have a TV and a box of DVDs. Granted the box is one of my smaller boxes, but still. I need my downtime entertainment that isn’t gaming.


4. I have a large storage container for my bedding. I don’t really see how to get around this one other than the purchase of bed linens each time I move.


5. I have a storage container of kitchen equipment. Glasses, bowls, utensils, a small frying pan. Otherwise I‘d have to purchase anything I need to use each time I move (yeah, restock your kitchen every 3 months). And I have a very interesting dietary limitations currently.


6. I have a microwave. Yes, some apartments they put me in do not come supplied with a microwave. I picked the one I have out based on it was the lightest weight one when I was purchasing one.


7. I have a vacuum cleaner. Yes, I have to clean my apartment. I have a model that was marketed as a “dorm room” model. So essentially it’s nearly impossible to kill and yet lightweight.


8. I have 2 containers of office supplies. I have this weird attraction to office supplies. I like to have them.


9. I have 2 cat carriers. I refuse to travel without my boys. Otherwise I‘d be in England or Australia by now. Along with that I have a litter box! (can’t go without one), an automated food dispenser (so I don’t get woken up), a water fountain and a box of toys. My cats live in luxury.


10. I have a printer, because my company occasionally wants me to print stuff. Plus the books I work on for gaming sometimes needs to be printed out and actually viewed.

When doing the quest Curing the Masses [15] we were being attacked by things we could not see. Found the answer here. It’s a bar in the upper left that isn’t very noticeable that shows plague exposure. There really needs to be more of a warning about it.


Mount prices need to come down. Between paying for Rez and repairs. I made it to level 15 with 48 silver. You need 10 gold. Sad smile


Also on my enigneer, I cannot dismiss my bruiserbot Sad smile


And today I have Nos’s bug where I cannot place things from my Chest to my property. Found the answer, you have to have Ctrl+F5 (Edit toggle) enabled to place stuff.

FODMAP: Lactose

So with my experiment with low FODMAP diet, I’ve added back Lactose. I had a full glass of milk and

no ill effects. Kinda nice to know I’m not quite so limited.
