It's done....I have it, I am still stunned, I never thought I would get this far. I never thought I would get past level 28 let alone level 51.

I guess I should thank fate somewhat. At least take a moment to appreciate it...most of the time, it takes every opportunity available to slap me right in the face, but sometimes...when I am least expecting it, when my attention is turned and my guard completely down, and I am not looking for it to be there...fate steps in and does something fitting and wonderful...it rounds everything off nicely. Brings it back together, back to meet almost at a starting point and yet, the flip side. I guess the complete flip side..one was just after the start, the other...just after the end.

Gareth gave me the plat to buy potions, I cannot tell him how much I appreciate that..without them I would never have gained the level, and Tus wiled away the marcs, chatting at me as I blindly hit skeletons and feeders. In my haste I died more times than I should have....but I was so eager I could not contain my exuberance..and everytime he snapped his fingers I was distracted by that stray thought...something I said to the little enchanter.....

It's an accomplishment...just blues to go and I am done. I am proud of myself. Stunned, awed, elated...but proud that I did something..for me...it feels good.


How long can you skirt an issue without ever actually getting anywhere? Pass information back and forth, bandy words..but never actually come to any conclusion. Days? Weeks?...to long, long enough that sometimes you can no longer see the starting point...
