I'm Stuck on the Knit Beanies

   It turns out that I wasn't getting gauge with the yarn I was using by itself.  Since I had only brought one thickness with me to the cabin, I was stuck.  It was too thin by itself and way too thick when doubled.  It worked out well enough, but I wanted to compare it to the actual gauge I was supposed to be getting.  I was still a bit off with this one, but I was closer.

  I was thinking about games that I used to play and loved playing.  That might be because Bill has recently started playing WoW again.  I logged into my account and found all my characters were still there.  It was a whole ordeal to find them all, but I figured out what servers I had characters on by using the Item Restoration page.  It now tells me how many characters I have on each server I have any on.  When I first logged in it didn't show any, but I had to log into each server to make the game realize I had too many characters.

  I used to play a lot of EverQuest.  I was always two expansions behind.  I even updated the video card on the family computer because I wanted to be a cat-person on the moon.  I knew the wood elf city better than my actual neighborhood.  I logged in again to see if any of my characters were missing.  I didn't see my cat-person for some reason.  The graphics were worse than I remember them being and I had no idea how to play anymore.  The game is mostly free to play, but does have some options you need to have a monthly subscription for, like selling in the bazaar.  I tried to play a little, but it's been too long and I couldn't remember how to.
