I don't like Tuesdays

It's maintenance day, which means it's "I no longer have any excuse I HAVE to clean my house" day. It also means that when I woke up this morning and thought "we could mebbe hit 38 today on Beo" I was horribly crushed when I remembered I couldn't do my usual hour of playing in the wee a.m.

Beowulfa is lvl 36. Her enchanting is at 277 so she can DE most of the stuff the big kids get in Outlands (finally!). Her tailoring is still at 225 .... Wulfa spend a pretty penny on Beo's enchanting, and she doesn't feel like doing dailies right now, so money conservation ftw ......

Did I mention that my lovely Smorgasbord macro increased my DPS?! Completely made my night last Thursday when we cleared the first half of Kara. Wulfa got jealous when she watched the Onyxia fight over Moon's shoulder ... it just looked freakin awesome. I don't see having time to do all the attunement stuff tho ... and Damm's on call this weekend anyway. Blargh.

We might be moving up (or is it moving back? I can never figure that one out) our move date. It occurred to me that transferring stores in the middle of December was probably NOT the best time, and it is imperative that at least one of us have a job when we move. Our lease is up in October-we had gotten an ok on extending our lease but leaving Oct. 31 shouldn't be a problem. And so if we do move earlier (I need to call my boss and get the transferring talks started) I have 1 month less to procrastinate. I have to start sending my books to NM. I will have to say goodbye to some furniture. I will have to find a place to dump my furniture-preferably sell it but I'm sooo not having a garage sale. And my boys (i.e. Damm and Moon) are not the most self-motivated people so I'll be making sure everything they need to do gets done ... actually Moon gets stuff done he just doesn't do it when I think it needs to be done, and that's distressing :D

I WANT TO RUN A MARATHON! There was a half-marathon I was planning on doing in November but if we move early no-can-do. I'm going to have to find another race because having that specific race in mind sparks the training, makes the extra effort worth it.

My scale has betrayed me. For no reason I can think of the numbers have increased to above the pre-diet numbers ..... I threw my old scale out and bought a new one but it doesn't love me either. Am considering ditching the diet and returning to my calorie-counting ways. It also occurs to me that my body may be resisting weight loss because I'm still Orclette's primary food source and the poundage I want to see gone is probably considered by my body to be its final reserves ... I don't know.

Time to lift weights and end the rambling catch-up :D

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...

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...

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.
