The killin' duo

Guess who we played last night? 'Wulfa and Dammy! I was sooo excited to finally be using ALL the hunter powers I had grown so accustomed to. We were in Tanaris, getting scorpid scales for my leatherworking quest. They don't skin off of the icky scorpids very much, so we spent quite a bit of time wandering all over the area looking for more scorpids. I've almost got all that I need but still need a few more.

Dammy had been worried that his shaman didn't mesh well with my hunter. My pet tanks, I can heal her, and I'm fairly powerful meself. So I don't need need anybody. But last night was awesome. Poor Susan doesn't have dash yet (pure laziness on my part) so Dammy would frequently get to the mob before she did, his windfury/stormstrike thingy would kick in, I'd maybe get off a shot, and the poor thing was dead. On to the next one. We could have easily taken on 4-5 mobs at once, but Tanaris is rather sparse and its mob population spread apart making pulling inconvenient. We did have the opportunity to take on a lvl 47 & 48 duo of nasty looking beetle thingies that come up out of the water hole after you fill your quest bottle. Dammy discovered that one for us. After the initial shock of seeing them I sent Susan in and we made quick work of them (at the time Dammy was 41 and I 44). We also took on Mr. Caliph something or other, with his little hordies, and killed them fairly easily although Dammy had to res himself 'cause they took us by surprise and Susan and I were not close to hand. But all turned out well. We helped a lvl 51 druid kill two alliance of reasonable lvls, I actually asked Dammy if he wanted to take on a lvl 48 warrior (see-I'm turning into less of a carebear). He declined, and we went on killing scorpids. At the end of our very brief time of playing he dinged 42 and I dinged 45. Got on this morning to check on auctions, and remembered that I needed more scorpid scales. Scorpids reside right outside of Gadzetan (spelling?). I ventured out and started killing, guiltily remembering that I NEED to wait for Dammy to catch up. After a few glorious minutes I led Beowulfa gently back into town, comforting her the whole way. She will be able to play again. She just has to wait for the shammy.

So I'm thinking we'll play 'Wulfa and Dammy again tonight. Very excited. Really want to get to lvl 46 and see what goodies hunters get then.

FOR THE HORDE

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.

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...
