Well, last night's gaming was good, I guess.  School was a bioooootch.  Nothing like spending half a day filing a trademark for a client, onl to have the site to crash when you click on the payment button.  And to call the federal gov't to hear "our payment system is down" and "sorry, you'll have to refile the entire thing."

 Not much to report.  The map system gets easier.  Once you find a place on the map, you can travel there just by clicking on it.  Still trying to master combat.  While I dispatched the whores with no help, I got whooped by the husband who ran off to a fort to join a band of theives.  Over, and over, and over.  Finally I left that dungeon.

 As best I can tell, a "cure disease" potion is the only way to do just that.  And wow, the're expensive!  Even with some successful haggling.  As for the torch, you merely need to equip it and wa-la, it was lit!  Not sure if it was luck because I was near a fire, or if torches always auto-light.  Makes trapsing around dungeons a lot easier, though.

Watching Eragon, may go buy a 6 pack.  Fiance' is still skiing in Canada and busy day tomorrow.  OSU plays and the school "spring fling" party is tomorrow night.  "80's prom" theme.  So more Oblivion tonight   And yes, I still claim I am engaged to an NFL cheerleader who puts up with all this.

 As for leveling, I haven't found the best way to level.  The skill points you gain when you level (seemingly from +1 to +5) depend on what skills you leveled up.  For instance, (I THINK) if you leveled up 5 skills that fall under endurance, endurance will gain +5 if chosen.  Sadly, I keep getting atheletics (from running!) at +5 and acrobatics (from who knows what).  TRYING to fight more to level up some other skills (by using blade, armor, repair...).  If I am going to learn any magic, I need to get my intelligence up.
