Happy Birthday to me

Yes today is my 29th birthday, and still noone has called me or sent me any kind of birthday greeting. Nobody loves me ; ;.

Its been quite a while since my last update so nows as good a time as any for one. With all the crap I've been doing with my house and whatnot I haven't been paying much attention to the world outside lately. Obama is on his European tour and speaks in Berlin in about 45 minutes. I really wish I could listen to it live but I'm stuck at work unfortunately.

The Phillies have played like shit for almost 2 months yet they are somehow still in 1st place in their division. Today they are playing our rival New York Mets for sole possession of 1st place and they better win. They have our second best pitcher, Jamie Moyer, going today so I'm pretty confident about our chances.

In FFXI I've been soloing DRG and BLU a lot (level 19 and 38 now respectively) and finally got some BLM leveling in there too (now 64). I've also found a new and extremely easy Campaign Op to do that gives 341 exp and takes like 5 minutes to do. Since Fairy sucks ass at keeping control of things (ala the AC we lose all the damn time) we have no nations controlling areas in the past. This means that there are Campaigns in the actual cities now and they are quite convenient in some respects, inconvenient in others. The positive is there are almost constant battles in one spot, the downside is all the NPC's disappear so you can't teleport or get Sigil while battles are going on.

Other than that its been same old same old. My mom is coming up to visit this weekend and to see my new house. Maybe I can persuade her to buy me some stuff for it lol.
