  1. Well it's been a few years (yes years) since I've been here. There where many reasons too (life changes, computer upgrades, time and many other things). But here are some of the things that have happened in our lives to fill you all in (just going over some of the highlights of the past year or two). Last year I turned 52 and I participated in a local fundraiser called Jen's Friends, they help with the other expenses that you don't think of with cancer (gas to get back and forth to appointments and treatments, heating and electric bills, etc.) This year I'm doing it again and my wife ( Genenut ) is joining me for the Climb Against Cancer, yes we are going to hike up a mountain. Here is a link if you would like to sponsor me or donate. https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/todd-james-2/20th-annual-jens-friends-climb-against-cancer I posted pics from last years climb on my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/todd.james1/media_set?set=a.10208995154230126.1073741862.1654994690&type=3 and will post pics from this year too. Our eldest son Nick has moved out of the house. Our youngest has started 7th grade and is on the soccer team. Dawn got a promotion at work and is a department supervisor and I started working in a different department in the same place. I also got laid up for a week after a bout of Diverticulitis when I lost a LOT of blood. It's been a few months and I'm much better now. Dawn has also been working on a degree in Medical management and has been maintaining a 4.0 average. She has about a year or so left to go.

  3. Hi all, just to let everyone know that we have set aside the funds for our three copies and will be in game as soon as we get them installed. so , yes Genenut (guild leader elect) and her hubby, Lord of the North and our son, daemonrocks23 will be in game soon. My younger brother is thinking about joining us in GW2, he is currently playing Star Wars the Old Republic and has asked me if anyone here plays that too.
  4. Wife and I don't want photo's, we'd each like a piece! Please!
  5. Stayed up late last night and got a Hound for one of my Necromancer/Ranger. They start as a level 5 going to get him up a few levels.
  6. It's time once again to throw open the Shing Jea Boardwalk, rev up the Rollerbeetles, and don our party hats for two weeks of festive fun from April 24th to May 8th. In addition to the usual games and gifts, we're packing this party with drops and activities never before seen in an anniversary celebration! Guild wars is commemorating their seventh anniversary with a huge party in Shing Jea Monastery and outposts all over Tyria. Are you light on your feet? Speak with Captain Li Sah and test your dodgeball skills in the Dragon Arena! Do you feel the need for speed? Speak to the Rollerbeetle Trainer and take a spin in Rollerbeetle Racing. You'll find both these NPCs in Lion's Arch, Shing Jea Monastery, Kamadan, and the Great Temple of Balthazar. The fun doesn't stop there. During the festival, keep your eyes peeled for more special drops than you've ever seen before. And be sure to stop by Embark Beach to talk to Ceira, Sworn to Fire. During the celebration, she'll be distributing the limited-edition Ranger pet: the Hound of Balthazar. Thanks for Seven Years of Support! Thanks again to each and every one of you for your continued support over the years. We wish you the best of adventures in the year ahead. Enjoy the festivities! Dawn and I did some level grinding today without knowing about this imagine our surprise when we saw slices of pumpkin pie, bottles of grog, bottle rockets, hunters ale and more being in pre-sear Ascalon! If you don't have GW2 yet come and look for us. We will be in and out of the game straight thru till the 8th. Come and join us! I'm going to run to Embark Beach and find out about the Hound (he looks like a dog made out of lava!You can see a pic of him here!) http://guildwars.com...ar_anniversary/
  7. Here is a link with a list of all the "Home World" names and more info. http://www.arena.net/blog/choosing-and-transferring-worlds-in-guild-wars-2
  8. I just saw the same link. Here are a few of the more important points: Note, those are their italics, not mine. The link also includes lists of server names. Because they recommend choosing a server should The Fellowship of DarkMatters choose a "home world" for the guild?
  9. I have not bought it yet bet heres some interesting info for GW2. http://www.arena.net/blog/choosing-and-transferring-worlds-in-guild-wars-2
  10. I have started paying for things using cash or more accurately in dollar bills. So I always get change, I have been saving said change for about 4 months now and have save about $230.00 (going to use this to help pay for a trip to Florida and Disney for the fam.) Did this for two years prior to this and it helped me save enough money to buy a "new" car to replace my pick-up truck.

  12. 22 years ago, yesterday December 2nd, I married my best friend, my love, and my better half. I had a wonderful evening with you on our night out. Thank you for putting up with me for 22 years and here's to 22+ more. Love ya Genenut aka Dawn. p.s. I wonder when we will see the Christmas theme go up here on Dark Matters......
  13. Well I am in Pottermore and have just gotten my wand from Ollivanders. It is 12 and a half inches in length, made of cherry wood with a core made of dragon and it's flexibility is brittle. I also have a black cat as a pet.
  14. I will post a pic in a few moments. Sorry it took me a few moments, but here it is.
