Lots of random stuff and some leftover real life stuff.

Ding 24!

Still haven't respecced elemental, but I have regeared towards castery. And it is helping. I have more than 1200 mana now which makes me a happy Dammerung.

I'm really really really tempted to respec. All in all it will mean more casting/faster, with slightly less melee damage(right now all I'm really getting from enhance is the crit%).

I hate slow 2handed weapons right now for some reason. I desperately would like to have a nice dagger but spending to get one that would get close to the 20 dps that my staff has is out of the question.

Finishing up the barrens green quests got me to 24. I think I'm going to continue like that... doing green quests. Its fast, its easy, and as long as I kill everything in my path while doing the quest its like I'm grinding but I get the occasional extra xp from the quest.

Tried doing Ragefire Chasm solo last night. Its doable but because they are elites the mobs are entirely not worth it.

Hard for me to think right now. I'm really tired and my baby orclette has been out of her normal routine due to Thanksgiving and is generally fussy and teething.

Some things I've noticed though. One: I started this trying to sorta write like Ratshag but more and more I just sound like me. I think I shall give up entirely the writing like someone else and hopefully I don't sadden too many people.

My team won and the couch I don't like resigned. I feel sad for him as a person because I know it sucks to lose your job and he probably gets tons of hate mail. However I'm glad he no longer coaches for us as I did not feel like he was doing a good job and I felt he was really unreliable. I am curious who we will get to replace him though.

Well I think thats it. I have to watch the orclette all day tomorrow solo and I need to crash now.

Can't remember - can shammies dual wield from the get-go or does you need to be in yer 40th season or somesuch? Otherwise, a two-hander will always out-dps a one-hander at the same level. Trade off is you take less damage 'cuase of the shield. /shrug

Making you tired is the orclette's job right now. That, and beings cute. Do yer best ta roll with it - eventually you'll get you some sleep.

And you write it the way you wants to, bro. Tryin' to talk like someone else'll just drive ya batshit crazy.

If I recall correctly you get dual-wield on level 40 if you spend your points in the talent tree. It is a talent, not a skill.

And yeah, Ratshag is right. Just write as yourself. It is much easier and you can focus on just writing what you feel like writing instead of thinking "How would I say this as an orc?"

If you like playing your shammy as a caster, go ahead an respec elemental (if you can afford it). As you level up, your bolts, shocks and fire totems will become your main damage and you will gradually do less damage with your weapon. You will eventually want to use a fast 1h and shield, and use Flame Tongue weapon, because Flame tongue weapon is the weapon buff that gains the most damage from your spell damage. Flame Tongue also does not scale with weapon speed, so you want it to hit as often as possible, hence the fast weapon. But for now, just go with the best weapon you have, even quest rewards will usually do.

Gig em, Aggies!

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...

Werewolves are always better.

The question answering post will come tomorrow. Sunday was too busy. I just finished reading Twilight and New Moon . When I first started Twilight I wasn't impressed, it seemed slow and bleh and very teen dating girl story. Last night I got home at about midnight... I picked up New Moon. I was only going to read the ending to the scene that starts in the back of Twilight.... I didn't get much sleep last night(due to finishing New Moon). I'm loving the series. Although, wow these vamps scare me. Why? Because they are harder to kill. After reading the first book I spent 20 min thinking of counters. For a counter to be valid it has to be balanced. I can't just say "I'm superman and Vampires are deathly allergic to me and I heal like wolverine and have a robot army." (although when I ran into the aliens from Alien/Aliens/AvP for the first time, my counter at the time was almost exactly that.) I came up with the Dancer. He's a completely normal ...

There be too much history.

By
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...
