RF Online was the second MMO I ever played (after WoW) and it where I joined the guild , and I ended up playing with some of those folks for 3 years, and still keep in touch with some of them.

At work there is a costume contest and a cubicle decorating contest. I haven't put any time into either so I have no idea what I will do tomorrow, but I did find some fun pictures of themed cubicles online.

First we have the chic bamboo cubicle. I think this is actually how it looks on a normal basis.

So I've been playing Warhammer for a few days now. Four days that is, for a few hours a day. For the first day I leveled a Dwarf Engineer to rank 5. The second day I leveled a High Elf Archmage to rank 5. For Saturday and Sunday, I decided to stay with the Archmage and am now rank 14.
