We'd love to see you at lightning talks (see my LJ post). If you're open on random evenings, we'd like company. If you believe in mutual motivation by proximity, gizbot also needs some of that.

Hey, that sounds like my January!

WoW's sucked you in too, huh?

Which realm?

aaargh!

3 on Lightbringer (Elf Druid, Dwarf Warrior, Gnome Mage) and one on Lothar (Tauren Shaman who I'm about to lose)

Must ...not ....log...aaargh!

Cool. d3l1r1um and I have multiple Horde and Alliance characters on Cenarion Circle. Our highest level is just below 30 at the moment: I've got a night elf druid, and she's playing a night elf hunter.

I run with

[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<ljuser=daibhidhbeag>') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

I run with <ljuser=daibhidhbeag> as the druid to his hunter, it's a very powerful combination!

If played correctly. d3l1r1um and I have discovered most of the ways to play that combination incorrectly. :)

Feblueberry should have some time taken at odd moments... Other then that, I say any real days yet. ^_^

Spelling: Mostly checked.

Isn't it actually spelled "January"? *stifled giggle* Feel free to glare exasperatedly now! ;)

So what do you need motivation for? That, maybe, I can help with?

Now it's spelt

LAST MONTH!

*grin* Works for me. So, gonna answer all my still-outstanding questions, or are inquiring minds going to be left out in the *sob* cold? ;)

Looking for things to see in Amsterdam, or any other part of the Netherlands you may have visited last fall. Counting down until mid April!

Amsterdam!

[learnteach.livejournal.com]

1. The Church in the Attic http://www.eurocitymaps.com/show/info/amsterdam_center_east
has info. Just down from the Old Church on the same street; really nice.

2. Walk once around the Old Church.

3. The Bloomgarden (street of flowers) is really nice, very short, and should look amazing when you're there.

4. Amsterdam Historic Museum (see above info link) has the Hall of City Watch Paintings, and some great armor bits, as well as good ceramics and wonderful renasannce stuff.

5. Rijksmuseum. Mostly closed, the part that's open has the best pieces, for a reduced fee--a great bargain! I spent 4 hours and didn't feel that I studied everything.

6. Walk the big city--it's not that big. On the main walking drag you see all kinds of things, the Amsterdam Historic Museum is off of it, it connects to the Bloomgarden, you can see the Beginauge (sp?!), the American Bookstore, etc.

7. Heard raves about taking a water boat tour from an independent; you bring your own food and share a canal boat with the owner rather than be in a glasstop tourist trap.

8. Eat a herring.

AVOID:
1. Coffeehouses. Cafe's serve coffee, and there were some very good ones, (my favorite just 2 streets away from the Church in the Attic from the Old Church) but Coffeehouses do weed and the smoke is amazing.

2. Van Gogh Museum, unless the moving exhibit is something you like. These are the paintings the tax collector got.

3. Bicycling, unless you're good. There's plenty of lanes but plenty of cyclists.

Ask Thorfinn and Cynswith about countryside options!

Have fun!
