Two, and three.

So my shammy was given a chance to play last night. Some impressions/ experiances : Chain Heal is about 30x more awesome than I thought it was. There just aren't words. Earth Shield and Riptide are pretty darn amazing. Ruune I lied to you. Kinda. Glyph of Wildgrowth is handy in raids... but WG already hits 5 people so a 6 th is kinda overkill for fivemans unless you really really like pets. Glyph of rejuvy , glyph of swiftmend and glyph of nourish is what I would use at 80. I kept forgetting to use totems. Its been so long. I'd skip like 5-6 fights before remembering to drop them again... and I'd wander off and forget to use the give me mana back spell. Mana Tide totem is -not- innervate. It is very shiny I'm sure but I need to use it more often and to remember that it won't return practically all of my mana . I wish lesser healing wave was faster. Getting used to having to stop to cast... is odd. But on the plus side when I went back to my druid...

All the posts so far this week were written Monday. I find it incredibly funny reading them later and later and see how in simply one week my thoughts on things can change so much. This post is the first non monday post.

You may have seen in my last two story posts that the titles have "Shadows" in them. This is to let you know that they are set in Shadowrun's world kinda loosely . So that you will have an idea of the setting behind such a short glimpse of a story. I am trying to become a short story author. To do this I am using the blog more and more. I find that on mondays I have a lot of time in the morning where I am able to think about stories clearly and I want to use this to practice writing. Please please if you read my stories and like them comment. Or if you have thoughts/comments about how a character acts or where the story is going please comment. Any input is appreciated. Well I say that.... if your input is simply "you suck stop wasting our time" please don't waste your precious finger effort to type that out. I already know that none of my writing is amazing literature(yet), and I will most likely delete any pure criticism posts. But things like: ...

Inspired by TJ whose post on this I missed some how. Hence why this is coming so much later than when she posted her thoughts on this subject. 3. I’m pretty sick of being told, “You’ll understand when you __________.” Whether it be get married, have a kid, get older, etc etc etc. I’m not a slobbering moron. I am pretty sure I understand a good portion of these things, at least in theory. Phil and I live together, have a joint bank account, do most everything together unless he is at work. I am pretty sure I “get” the whole functional, day to day-ness of being married. And no, I don’t have a kid, but I’ve been tired. Oh no, I totally understand. You , the one who has procreated , are the only one who knows what real tired is. No one else has ever been tired. Ever. EVER. If you have not expelled a baby from your body, you may think you’ve been tired, exhausted, ready to drop face first into your laptop, but you’d be wrong. Because only mommies know what tired really is. Anyway. I’m n...

I lost this one. So I started this one.

Although this one wasn't bad:

Something that occured to me after writing that story post Garden Shadows was how often in real life that people have some CRAZY thing happen more than once in their lifetimes. Cops and soldiers do all the time. But "normal" people well.. don't. You might; once, get caught in a bank while the cops and robbers shoot it out. But if that happens it is extremely unlikely that anything like that will ever happen to you again. See that! Up there! Mira! That is what happens when I try to say serious things. I get lost in the stupid. I did that whole lost in the stupid thing this weekend. My mom made a statement of something to the effect that Israel was the only culture to be dispersed for a millennium and then successfully keep their culture and reform into a real country. I started arguing; not because I really knew but because anytime anyone says something that boldly they HAVE to be wrong. And very shortly you have me spewing out "facts" and other stup...
