SO VERY VERY DONE.

By
I'm finally done with school this semester. I might actually take time to visit with guildies tonight. That is so awesome.

So I'm writing my "I'm done post". Wulfa has about an hour or two more before she turns in her final paper and writes *HER* "I'm done post".

School had its ups and downs this semester. We averaged about 3.5 posts a week. I don't think we had any major posts of earth rattling importance. We dealt with black widows, election thoughts, and a lot of time management. We played WoW more than we thought we would and less than we had in previous semesters. We didn't have any complete and total emotional breakdowns(we did get very very close several times though).

ROTC provided a great deal of financial security and a HUGE amount of stress and frustration.

Orclette started gymnastics and that has turned into a great huge amazing success. Oh and she's effectively potty trained at this point. Also a happy new thing.

Mini-orc hasn't really started talking yet but looks more and more like a little person and less like a baby.

Wulfa survived. We both adapted a lot and gained tons of skill points in the time management area. Turns out you CAN do this kind of stuff and not go psychotic. It's just uncomfortable and hard. Much like anything else worth doing in life.

Oh and I got decent grades while keeping my PT up which I wasn't sure of my ability to do so.

All in all it was a good foundation semester and we hope to use the lessons learned to set ourselves up for a growing semester next semester. A few days of break then we start our christmas break schedule and all the things we're going to do before next semester.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Glowing New Year.

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.

By
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.

By
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.
