Call of water

Today was extremely gratifying. I spent a lot of time out of game playing with PrettyOrc and Orclette. The weather was great and my house got semi clean. Also I didn't spend too much money or eat too much.

In game also went well. I'm cooking 115 now and fishing 100something. I'm level 22 and I FINALLY finished the call of water quest. /tiredfromrunning
Everyguide tells you how this is a *long* quest. And I still had no clue that it would be that long. Wow. I don't want to run anywhere ever again. I think I shall park my green tired booty and just grind for the next 2 levels.

The "crew" and I(Myself(21Shaman, Moonsongdown(17 hunter) and Beowulfa(22hunter) decided we'd do WC with just us. It went really well. We can safely handle 2-3 of the elites at a time even the druids that sleep you. At the same time we were able to practice partying skills. I am designated leader/markerofmobs/healer/totemer etc. Beowulfa is puller. Susan[beowulfa] is main tank. Moonsong is dps and his pet is the same(growl turned off). I'm offtank for adds. We move a bit slowly but most of that is due to trying to learn the best pulling techniques and practicing things like ice traps and different totems. We were able to almost get to Lord Cobrakhan(sp?) and we easily killed the first Fanglorddruid and the 2 raptors that agroed with her. Her shoulders(the +9agi blues) dropped and Beo got them. I had the loot screwed up at that point so there was no dicing.

Next time we go back I'm certain we can get Cobrakhan and at least two other fanglords in the hourish time period we usually have. Doing it this way is so much more fun than being led through by a high level, however when doing the quest I'd -way- rather a high level just blow me through it. I hate quests taking a long time.

Having water/fire/earth totems is nice. Very nice. I like it. Not sure I'll stay enhancement though. More and more I find myself wanting to stay out of melee and just blast/heal. Well that is until I crit. Which is often. I've worked my crit% up to 11.44% with the staff I'm using. So it goes off often enough for me to notice. Also today I broke 200 damage with a nice nifty 233 crit on a raptor. Yay.

Any suggestions on a good 2handed axe for levels23-27? Hmm I think I shall hit up thotbott before I go to bed.

Adios for now guys.

Edited removing bits that confused me.

Hey -- I gtreatly enjoy your writing style here. Keep up the good work!

Regarding your question in this post as to a good 2-hander, farm Shadowfang Keep a couple times. You should be able to pick upo some good weapons/gear to boost your healing and DPS set. I don't have access to game sites right now (work firewall) but wowwiki.com's instance guide is an excellent place to start.

SDpeaking of DPS sets, SFK will give you good stuff for both elemental and enhancement specs.

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Guildless.

Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

There be too much history.

For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...
