Musings of a Wulfa

You know you play WOW when:
#1. You're out walking in the bright sunshine, chatting with Dammy, when out of the corner of your left eye you see a bright green substance-it's a slime monster! And then you take a clooser look and it's only algae/moss (my biology knowledge is really not good) ....
#2. Out of the corner of your right eye you see briarthorn and you move your hand to bring the mouse over it to gather it-and then you remember you're driving and it couldn't possibly be briarthorn. Closer inspection reveals it to be one of those huge cylindrical concrete thingies they use for road construction ......

-It had to be this morning that Orclette hid our remotes. I reconciled myself to the fact that I would not be doing my Cathe Freidrich video this morning and figured I'd play a bit of WOW. Logged on and remembered that it's maintenance day. I was sufficiently aggitated anough to want to throw something ......

-My very first hunter has been given new life and a new name. Angharad was transferred over to Kael'thas to join BBB's guild. Someone had already taken her name so I renamed her Wulfa. I now have a Beowulfa/Wulfa Horde side and Alliance side. At least you'll know who I am .... She's almost lvl 48. Seeing as she was my first hunter, I didn't know anything. That's my disclaimer. When she hit 40 that meant I could wear mail-and anything mail is better than the agility-laden leather stuff I had, right? So I found her wearing gloves that were gray, a chestpiece with stamina & strength (or was it spirit?), and little agility. Her reputation is horrible. She's not even revered with her own faction (NE). Beowulfa hit that when she was lvl 20 (the alliance one). But-I have bought new gear, she has more agility than Horde-Beowulfa had at her level so I'm happy. And she has two kitty mounts. I love the NE mounts. Absoballylutely my favorites (1000 rep to the person who can tell me where absoballylutely-or a very close derivation-comes from. Hint: they put these books in both the kids section and the sci-fi section).

-Beowulfa (alliance) is our Kael'thas banker. She's spending a lot of time in Darnassus and not a whole lot leveling. I'm thinking she'll hang out there until I get Wulfa to 70. I really want to be able to play with the big kids when they bring out their big guns (i.e. all their lvl 70's). At the same time, I'd like to have a healer because I know how very useful they are. And I do like healing, so I'd be combining my desire to be helpful with what I want to do, and thus not anger BBB while helping my uber-cool guild ......

-icecream is good. Blizzards are even better.

-my little brother is dating. This is the one we thought would be married with kids before the rest of us even thought about adding to the family tree. Laugh's on me, I guess ... Anyway, I don't know all the details because I have yet to talk to the brother that's doing the dating and have only talked to the other brother (younger than me but older than dating brother) and thus have only his take on the situation. Basically, a friend of younger brother has a sister who wants to go to her prom. She's good-looking, intelligent, and I'm guessing is not afraid of sharing her views, expressing herself, in short-very confident. And she doesn't have a boyfriend 'cause they're all scared of her (I have the upmost sympathy for her as I had the same problem ...). She didn't really want to take any dudes from her loser-list (the middle brother's words-not hers) so her brother suggested my brother. And they've been out on two extra dates already. So we'll see how this goes ..... sniff. My little brother is growing up. I had the same reaction when I walked into a bar that my other brother plays at (music). "He associates with these people?!" (My family was not into bar/pub going.) He's very proud of the fact that although he's been offered/bought drinks he has yet to partake. Maybe he's learned from my example (as the requisite "bad" child I got drunk 2 times and had horrible hangovers the next day).

-Last night we left Orclette with her babysitter. Or rather with her babysitter's brother (they're Orclette's cousins) because babysitter wasn't back yet. We're thinking that was the problem. She did not like how all that happened. And when I got back she was playing contentedly with babysitter until she saw me. Her face crumpled, tears flowed, and cries of rage issued forth. She was very, very unhappy with me.

Ok, random musings are done. I don't have my posts on a set timer yet like dammy so his will post over this one, but we know who you really want to read :)

Update: The remotes have been found. One Orclette stashed in the laundry bin, the other she shoved under the dresser.

Heads Up: Pictures have been requested of me w/ my awesome hunter shirt and of the Orclette. Pictures shall be supplied, once Dammy shows me how to upload them ......

Haha, just guessing now but is it "The Anatomy of Swearing"? I cheated and looked it up...

Nope and nope!

Although it might have rabbits in it.

This is dammerung who would tell you but he isn't sure he's allowed to.

Curses... lol, I dunno?

The origin of absoballylutely, well, at least the first time I saw it, was "The Long Patrol" by Brian Jacques.

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.

New Stuff

For those of you who are still following us I'd like to redirect you over to our new blog project, www.wordsremember.com . Damm and I have embarked on artistic and literary adventures and have even opened our own etsy shop which you can find here . Thanks!

On being Horde.

Obviously we no longer play Horde side. Wulfa has a 70, 45, 32 and numerous other alliance alts now. I've got a 63, 46, 20, 16, 11, 8, 8 Alliance side(all my alliance alts are new since we moved over to Kael'thas, wulfa's playing two characters that already existed before our horde characters were started). But we are two and a half ORCS. Not two and a half random alliance characters. This makes it hard sometimes when I see links to my site or I see a horde shaman etc. It is kind of like going back to your home town and seeing people you used to know and they ask you how your ex-girlfriend is doing. They don't know you split up. You don't really want to talk about it. Etc. Sometimes I think fondly about getting on my Horde shaman and leveling a bit. Nothing ever comes of it. And even less will in the future as I get further and further away from wanting to play those toons. There are things I like on the Alliance side. I like the Dreanai. A lot. Even th...
