My First ZNMs

I would like to start this off by saying that I have still never taken a picture for Zeni nor do I even know how to get the camera or the plates to take pictures with. That being said, I have had some good luck in the past 2 days with ZNMs.

Monday I was really sore from sun burn, so bad that it has woken me up about 7 times over the past 3 nights. With the sun burn making me so uncomfortable I figured sitting at work would just make things worse and stress me out, so the obvious decision was to stay home ... and game. I slept all morning, which felt fantastic by the way, and then I tried getting online in the afternoon and maybe exping WHM. Sadly it took about 4 hours before I finally got my internet to let me log in to FFXI and then when I logged on Mac told me he was doing some ZNMs. I figured what the heck, I don't have anything else to do so I'd go. We ended up doing about 4 pops of the Iriz Ima (Marid type mob) which drops Avocat Pigaches. At the end of it all, we got Mac his pair that he needed and a pair for myself. FYI Avocat Pigaches are Enfeebling Magic +3 which are amazing for my RDM and BLM now. :D

Then yesterday I was hoping to get some Sea NMs done with Mac but when we geared up and got ready to go there was a group doing the Ix DRK so he said he was gonna go pop Chigre instead. Again I figured I would go and take a shot at the MACC+2 ring. I also wanted to see how some of these mobs are done so I could potentially make some gil off of them later on or even just kill them for friends that would want items from these later on. On the last try the MACC+2 ring dropped and I guess everyone already had it except me so I got that. :D I haven't even had a chance to redo my macros yet because I had to run up to sky.

Some other good news that is sky related, I'm next for Haidate, and I don't mean next in line for the LS, I mean I am next and don't have to wait for a buyer. Once I get a Byakko's Haidate for Screamin I'm definitely taking a break from sky, my health is really suffering right now. I haven't been sleeping well enough or long enough and it is really starting to bring me down. Now they also have the possibility of double payout which means a bigger slice of the pie if you hit over 75% attendance for the week. It is actually a good idea I think because it is an incentive for people to come more often that don't really need items anymore. An idea that actually keeps the older members with tons of points around and continues to allow people with less points to still get a payout but still save points for items.

Anyways, I better be getting the Haidate tomorrow night or I'm gonna freak out. Then I can relax some and take a nice long break from sky and work on WHM at my leisure. Ok, I'm starting to repeat myself so I'll just peace out.
