White screen of doom?

My dearest Macbook died yesterday. Everytime it starts up it can't find some key file. So all you see is a solid white screen and a flashing folder icon with a question mark. I called the local Mac service store and they said it was most likely a failed hard drive but to try re-installing the OS incase that was somehow the problem. The actual tech didn't think that would be of any help at all. Regardless I plan to try that when I get home. If it doesn't work, and I don't think it will, then I will be taking the machine to the shop on Monday the 8th to get it looked at. At least my parents bought the three year warranty before I purchased the thing from them.

Until then don't expect much in the way of Wulfa daily posts or Wulfa playing WoW while I'm at work. Orclette doesn't handle anyone being on the other computer well. And desktop PC's are hard to play from your bed while Orclette is napping. Maybe just maybe wulfa will be able to borrow Moon's laptop.

Also, in the news. We've decided on moving up the departure date from November to October. We're double checking with my parents to make sure coming early won't be a bad thing but we wanted to be hireable for -all- of the retail holidays not just the 2nd half. We think this will greatly increase our odds of getting jobs fast once we get down there. I'm hoping financial aid will come through and I will only be working over the holidays but we'll see.

According to our eye doctor BCBS of Texas hasn't been paying out their claims. So we have to pay everything up front and request reimbursment from our health insurance provider. This is full of sucky.

I won't be playing WoW at all until Friday night late due to the Macbook thing. Maybe I'll catch up on a few Eureka and Total Drama Island.

Speaking of Eureka, is it Irony when you suddenly have an inspiration and realize that the word you are trying to read on a poorly written sign is "Eureka!" not "Eurokay"? I think it is but am not certain.

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...

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.

Gearing up the wulfa.

Okay so Wulfa needs a little bit of help. And as I'm officially her 'researcher' like she is my 'banker' here is what I've got: I am suggesting she get Mongoose on her spear for + a bunch of agility . Her spear is a really good one and it should be okay at this point to get enchants. I'm an idiot and didn't read the enchant. Sorry I thought that was a static + agi and a chance for weapon speed increase. The normal + agi enchant it is then. Thanks Crashandburn for noticing. And her bow I'm suggesting she get a plus hit scope . I am suggesting she gem anything and everything with Rigid Golden Draenites because right now her hit rating is below 142 which is what I've seen as the magic number for hunters to stop missing. Missing right now is a huge drag on her dps so lets get that stopped right away. I noticed her ring was a bit old and suggested: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=31527 http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27733 http://www.wowhead.com/?item=303...
