Catchup
Heh heh week without posting, oops. Hello writing goals, nice to see you as you fall behind me into the dust.
I mostly blame Flight Rising. How dare you be so addictive, game? The dynamics of its economy are both fascinating and frustrating to me. It's an extreme buyer's market, at least for dragons -- I make way more from selling battle loot than I do from buying and selling dragons. In a month of playing, I've never sold a dragon on the open market that didn't get exalted (in other words, "deleted from the site permanently"). I've been doing some advertising on Tumblr and the site forums, and that helps, but it's more work than I had really wanted to put in on what was supposed to be a fun distraction with some pretty dragons.
The dragons sure are pretty though. So it's still worth it, so far.
In other news, T had some PTO to use up and decided to take a stay-cation this week. So that he doesn't spend the entire time sacked out on the couch in front of Grand Theft Auto, we have a number of adventures planned: one day in Marin County, another at the Monterey Bay Aquarium (we're taking the behind-the-scenes otter tour!), probably a couple of museums in SF, a baseball game with my parents on Saturday. It should be fun, if busy. Watch for pictures. Especially of the otters. Yay, otters!

Funny how the economy in games like that work. Sounds like dragons are much more easily obtainable than the battle loot, so maybe that's why? I don't do much dealing in online commerce like that, so I don't know.
Haha, making his PTO productive, are ya? Also, Otters are one of my favorite animals; they are only rivaled by polar bears. It's a close battle. I wish to hug them both, though. :3

Sadly T seems to have come down with a cold. Fingers crossed that he'll be feeling well enough for otters!
