Much, much better

I respecced feral, bought new gear, was pleasantly surprised to find really good deals on AH, and I got my water form.

I hate water. In RL I don't quite hate it but I have a strong distaste for it. And in WOW-I just can't move very well in it. Dammy tells me that it's just like land movement but I just can't seem to get the hang of it. Water form helps in that I'm in no danger of dying from lack of air and I move so much faster which means less time spent in water-HOORAY but still no love there. And if you've ever played druid you'll know that in order to get water form you have to spend a lot of time in the water. A guildie was incredibly nice and let me tag along with him as he was also getting the water form. Little orclette woke up halfway through our arduous quest and he was very understanding when I put myself on follow and let him do all the work (we had to run through Wetlands as he didn't have the flight point for Westfall, which you have to go to in order to complete the quest). Then, when we got to Westfall, our guild mistress was kind enough to tag along because there was a shark and she didn't want us gettin' 'et. Plus she knew where the amulet thingy was. And many thanks to both of them because I probably wouldn't have gotten around to that quest for a very long time, seein' as how I hate the water.

Our group dynamic has changed for the better. I'm the tank now, Dammy's the healer, brother is still hunter. And I got to play around with my cat form last night and I loves it loves it loves it. The only beef I have is that brother sends pet in before me a bit more than occasionally. I'm thinking I'll have to revise my tanking expectations to include his pet attacking things around me with Dammy sticking close to me since I can pull anything off of him . . .exception being elites and significantly higher lvl mobs. Those I want to tank, to get practice tanking and being beary awesome :).

Tonight we'll be letting our alliance gang get some well-earned rest and pulling out our lowbie hordies. I'll be playing my squishie priestie who seriously flaunts her assets (there are some really interesting cloth outfits out there), brother will be playing tank warrior, and Dammy will be my orc rogue lover. We had forbidden love spring up between us and we defied both sets of parents, running away from home and pledging our undying love to each other . . .kinda like Romeo and Juliet but without the dumbness. I just don't see how both of them dying is romantic. Now Beatrice and Bernard in Much Ado About Nothing-that is romantic.

"Against my will I have been sent to . . . . bid thee, come into dinner." (Beatrice, loosely quoted)
"There's a double meaning in that." (Bernard, exactly quoted)

And even that play has two rather dumb and dumber characters. The Prince and Monsieur Love, aka Claudio. Condemning Hero without giving her the chance to explain herself. And doing it on her wedding day. Tisk tisk.

But enough about Shakespeare. Orclette is getting annoyed and bored with just Dammy playing with her. Btw, orclette can dual wield. Give her two spoons and she looks like her orc daddy dammerung:)

Shakespeare and WoW in one post? Me likey! And gratz on the new gear. It's always nice to spec into a tree that makes you comfortable and allows you to have fun with the game.

Swimming is a PITA. Having to swim through that tunnel to get into the Coilfang Instances every.darn.time. drives me nuts.

Wow. Way to quote my favorite Shakespeare play and movie. (Yum Denzel Washington.)

Beatrice and Bernard = the best!!!

*two thumbs up*

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.

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...

Programming.

Someone enlighten me. I keep running into this idea with certain people I talk to. "Why are you charging me for this custom program? It has already been written for another bank. All of the work is already done." I've tried explaining that programs are like books. Even though you only wrote it once you charge it multiple times. I've tried explaining that custom programs are like our software product. You have to pay for YOUR copy, even though we've already written and sold copies to other people. The last person I tried to explain this to told me that I "shouldn't argue with the customer". /sigh This isn't a complex idea.
