  • The World (of Warcraft) Is Just Awesome

    The World (of Warcraft) Is Just Awesome

    So that’s been making the rounds, so there you go. I love it, especially Illidan’s little cameo, and – oh God – is Archimonde humping the World Tree? What has been seen cannot be unseen. After finishing up my Fool for Love requirements, I finally...

  • A regular Loot Hoover

    A regular Loot Hoover

    After chatting with Miss Hydra for three or four hours about my financial woes (my own economic stimulus bootstrapping plan is now underway), it was time to go home and – yes – raid. Wait, what? Well, yes, a few of you may have noticed...

  • Shaking off the dust; WoW resolutions

    Shaking off the dust; WoW resolutions

    Unrelated note: how many times did I type "reoslutions" instead of resolutions? If you guessed 3, you’re a winner. So the holiday lull is over and the new year begins. My real life resolutions for 2010 aren’t anything impressive, and I’ve been cheating on WoW...

  • Letting it languish

    Letting it languish

    Ah, December – that time of the year where I typically let my blog posts trickle to a minimum. Not out of neglect for you, O dear reader, all 3 of you. No no – I simply find a lot of other things to do...

  • Random dungeons and UI redesign

    Random dungeons and UI redesign

    Random dungeons: LFG works well now. It works scary well. It also has a sense of humor: my first instance after joining the queue for a random instance? Heroic Trial of Standing Around in One Room. Thanks, I wanted to go straight back here, how’d...

  • The first five things I’m doing after 3.3 drops

    The first five things I’m doing after 3.3 drops

    Borrowed from Bible of Dreams: Get into LFG and finish the 5-mans, straight off the bat. I was blathering Ratshag’s ear off again this morning on IM about how there’s 1, maybe 2 drops in all of the first two instances for me… and then...

  • Turkeys

    Turkeys

    Stupid turkeys. Killing 40 turkeys with 30 seconds between each kill is going to be the death of me. I even had it at 39 of 40 yesterday and a friggin’ warlock decided to curse the turkey I was standing on top of. Thanks, you...

  • Chasing unicorns

    Chasing unicorns

    Byaghro calls it the elusive drop. Bre called it the unicorn. I’ve even talked about my unicorns, which is now sadly outdated (though hey, some 70 loot from ZA would probably still be an upgrade for my 71 warlock…). No, my unicorns are multiplying –...

  • Things done this weekend

    Things done this weekend

    1) Saw Ony, finally. No one got breathed on, and I got a thing or two. 2) Got other upgrades, mostly from badges and ToC and suchlike. Is all good, but paying for enchants and gems is getting old. 3) Got Kallech ready to run...
