A post of sorts.

"Tell everyone to submit any question they want to ask of us and we'll do a big post like Nasirah or Tea Jay and etc. Also we'll do pictures of ourselves or Orclette if requested since we're vain. If we don't get enough questions we'll get hurt and sad and cancel the whole thing." I'm looking into the idea of learning ada or gnat(which as I understand it is a free version of ada). I'd love for someone to suggest a good book or website to learn these from and to verify that gnat is extremely similair to ada. Right after I finish this post I'll begin google searching this. Also I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with Honeywell of www.Honeywell.com By familiar I mean you know someone who works for them, you work for them, you've worked on a project with them. I'm trying to research what life is like working for them. Expect deep secret questions like: Is the carpet nice? Do they let you drink water? Are there chairs? Tooth t

Orclette Hazard

Orclette really likes the little baby cereal. She's currently munching on apple cinnamon. When she eats these they're not just going into her mouth (that wouldn't be a story) they coat the rest of her in sticky apple cinnamy goodness. But I thought I got it all off. So I meander into the bathroom. And she follows me, as Orclettes will. And in my moment of vulnerability she strikes. Sticky Hand (Rank 5), on the mommy! Followed by Crumbles in Fist (Rank 6) on her leg! I feign death so the Orclette aggro wanders away then clean up the mess. And I thought I got it all off. But I was wrong. Sticky baby cereal between your skin and your jeans is possibly one of the weirdest sensations I have encountered. But that's just a hazard you run when living with an Orclette.

Catch Up

It's been like, forever, since I last wrote a post. Almost a week. Sleep and my newest favorite series stole me away. Sleep 'cause I've been staying up late, i.e. 10, 10:30 p.m., and the new series by Stephenie Meyers has vampires, werewolves, and lots of drama. What's not to love? I got the first one Sunday night, started reading Monday morning, drove back to Springfield (1-hour each way) to get the second and third one, and finished them Tuesday afternoon. [Spoilers removed] ..... Yeah, lots of drama. And lots of muscly men. Yummy yummy. Ok, in WoW, no, I'm not ready for that yet. Sunday I worked in my fabulous bookstore and a customer was mean to me! In Houston I expected it, but here, working one day a week on a Sunday (which is when the church people come out to play) I was rather surprised. We have to offer our membership card, if you say you don't have one we have to offer a benefit. Now, I'm not a salesman. I'm very good and getting projects done

Grats on 70!

I started this project a little late. My fault. However Phinnigan more than made up for my slackin. The picture shows Wulfa, her Cat mount, her Cat pet, and her Cat hubby. Who knew that you became a cat lady the more seasons you have.... Happy lvl 70, Wulfa! Dammerung put the idea out there and I drew it up... -OneAmongMany* * (names changed cus I wanted to).

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

Sunday sunday sunday

I was going to write a post about making a strategy game here. But as I started writing I realized that a large portion of what is in my way is my lazyness. So I'm changing the focus of the post. I -love- designing characters in DnD. I love making maps. I also enjoy trying to design encounters, or taking an existing game and changing the rules to try and make a different game. I can do these things for hours. When I wasn't playing wow I would spend my free time designing character after character for DnD 3.5 or for Shadowrun or building multiple npc's for an encounter and trying to come up with a set of tactics that would make the PC's sweat but wouldn't be heavy handed. Ask Wulfa... I easily spent 20+ hours a week doing this. When I go for walks I dream up scenes(crappy dialog) but scenes that make me want to see them. But I am generally too lazy to go purchase tokens, and polish up a map, and make a set of rules, and write a story to make my own game. I a
