I know, I said I never would be, but heck, it’s not that bad an addiction and thanks to Max and real life stuff I don’t have the time to let it take over my life. Queak has joined a guild and they really seem like a very nice group of people, super helpful, very generous and very interested in hearing about Max for a short while the other day too. They also don’t mind my playing style which is fabulous! I am solo by nature and very self sufficient, so I’m really funny about using guild supplies and such when I have so much of my own and love to harvest more. They taught me more about tradeskills and based on what they said I changed from tailor, which I hated, to sage which is really easy and useful for me. I’ve discovered the best way to make money in game for me via the broker too so I’m pretty loaded with cash most of the time and that’s been nice. Oh and I forgot to say, I bought my white pony, Mystie! I also moved away from the boring town Queak grew up in, (Kelethin), and into the big city of Qeynos in a nice two bedroom apartment. I considered a townhouse but there were only two windows and I love all the windows in the apartment. The townhouse does have a courtyard though, so I may reconsider eventually, but right now I like my current home best. Every evening Queak goes home from adventuring or tradeskill working, picks up whatever cash the broker has waiting for her and sets aside a percentage of the day’s take to spend on her household items. Last night she bought a potted street lamp and a damask couch. I love having a home to decorate! It is so much fun!
In other and much more important news, I had to take care of an entire list of problems with some appointments coming up for Max today and even though I put them off for nearly a week they were all handled and over with in a matter of less than a half hour. And everyone was so nice and helpful too. Basically, the hospital that did the Head CT scan needed to send me a copy of the film they took for us to take to the neurologist in Chapel Hill. I had to call the neurologist because they are planning to do the EEG there on June 12th and Max’s doctor was freaking out about it. She was so worried because they aren’t going to do sleep deprivation or sedation or anything but what the neurologist’s office told me was they are extremely familiar with autisitic and other mentally disabled kids and have a way of handling these scans with as little drama as possible for the child. She said they will try it the regular way first and then schedule a sedation version if they can’t get what they need the first time, but she was pretty confident so I’m pretty confident. It should be okay. They see kids even worse than Max and manage to handle them okay. She said they really can’t prescribe any other way to do the EEG until after they see how he is the on the first try. So i am happy with that. In either case we get to to talk to the neurologist and he/she will be able to tell us more about Max and his seizures and what we can expect in the future and how to deal with them the best way now. Hopefully everything will turn out just fine.
Well, it’s time to get ready for the bus. I didn’t get to play much EQ2 today… I was so tired I slept most of the day. Oh well…. It’s the premenopause thing. It makes me so tired sometimes. Â
PS! I added a new category to my blog just now, and I know you see it coming… Everquest 2. Yep… Later I’ll go back and add all my EQ2 entries to that category. Yay! I also need to update my photo there at the top of this page… Queak has orange hair and wings now to match her guild cloak! :D Yay!
