Heat Wave Over (For Now)

It's been a long time since my last post ("Bad blogger!"). We had super-high temperatures this past week, like most of the country. Record highs were set in Arkport with temps in the high nineties. I don't know if we'd have made it without our neighbor's pool. We swam around a few times a day, mostly just to drop our body temperature. It worked!

Just got back in the office from my week's vacation. We spent a few days with Kristen's parents, then came home to visit with friends up from Virginia. A great time off. Coming back to work, I have to contend with Annual Conference this week. Next year, I'll make sure NOT to schedule my vacation immediately before or after conference. Live and learn!

My Guild Wars life is progressing. James and I are pushing our characters through Factions. I've got almost all the Kurzick outposts mapped (just one to go), and am making headway on the Luxon ouposts. I'm still gathering Kurzick faction, however, so the Luxons will have to wait. In Prophecies, I need to push my characters through the final few quests. Liu Kiri's the only one who's completed Hell's Precipice. Lots to do, too little time! I've created a User Page on the Guild Wars Wiki, to help people follow along.
