1 It's cold enough for a hoodie or light coat here in Dallas, but I just got Guild Wars 2 so I don't have any reason to go out except to take the dog out.

2 We're still covered in ice and snow.  Still a week until I can get any good work done, probably.  Just working my way up the tiers in World of Warships.  So far it's been quite enjoyable, although I'm still just using co-op play to grind up the ladder.  It looks like it could get quite grind-y before too long.

Rick C:  hope you enjoy GW2.  I played it from launch through the solo-able end of the original storyline (there's a final dungeon that finishes the story, but is multiplayer only), but dropped it when I came back for the "living story" expansions.  They're persistent world is a neat idea, but it also means that if you miss something, the world can get screwed up for you.  Not game-breaking or anything, but confusing and a bit unbalanced in places.

3 I had, overall, a very nice first day of the year. I'll take what I can get...

GW2: My main problem with it is that with each major update (including, ESPECIALLY, the recent expansion) they make getting The Right Gear an astonishingly unpleasant grindfest. Three years in, and I've still never had a Legendary weapon, for instance. I still enjoy puttering around and joining in with guild events, so, as long as the guildies don't expect me to be a full Berzerker spec whatever, it's all good.
