On Guilds.

Let me talk for a moment about fantastic guilds and guildies.

Here is a short list of exactly what I want from a guild:

1) The ability to come and go without being kicked from the guild.
2) Friendly guild members who chat with me even though I'm not there raiding/pugging with them every week.
3) Green guild chat. Possibly full of crazy people who think that the time is completely different from what it actually is(US mountain time).

Here is what I get from my guild:

1) Boo. The guy is always on. Always responds to my blathering. And he's pissed.... all the time... and I mean all five meanings of the word. Pick a few... he's always at least two meanings.******

2) Ruune. She's like the salt in the stew right? The not quite good that makes everything good? The Aussie who abuses you and doesn't know how to spell dammy(She thinks its spelled "Susan"). Yeah... gotta have shammies or whatever she currently plays around.

3) Jess and Mr. Jess. Jess talks almost as much as I do. Mr. Jess said something on channel last week I'm pretty sure.

4) Nas and Blu. They've been "close internet" friends since the old days in that guild we were once in. They check up on us more than anyone online I think.

5) Other than possibly Bar who is another toddler parent like us and we swap stories regularly.

6) Oh right and I almost forgot Fay our guild leader who is ALWAYS on and always giving info. I ask about 6-7 questions a night on guild channel. He consistently answers them right off. And I tell him he can't be right. And he gets on his alt and flies over and /point's at the guy I said didn't exist. And I tell him that oh hey he is right.

7) And book and ollie and jonty and night and kinni(who thinks he's an orc)...and twice and push and fel and beldandy and hattie the dps queen and wet and malcik.....the list goes on... I'm certain I forgot someone.

The point in this... is these guys always are friendly and welcoming even when we disappear for a few months at a time due to real life. Our guild is like a favorite pub where everyone knows you. You go away on business or due to sickness or visiting family? And when you come back the pub is still there... the guys are still there and they all wave and invite you over to their table.
That's what I want from a guild and my guild gives it to me. And the beginning of a new year is a great time to think about all the good things you have been given and be thankful for them.

So thank you Parallel of Kael'thas.

*****This is confusing to those people who actually pay attention in class. Book not Boo is always pissed. Sorry Boo. Sorry Book. The freakin "k" is confusing.

Woo! Yay us! (And by "us" I mean both the Blu/Nas team and Parallel as a whole.)

However, just jumping back a couple post . . . you can't just up and change your kids' names just because you don't play orcs anymore. I MAY be able to get on board with Miniwolf, but Wolflette just isn't going to work. She's Orclette. Sorry.

@Charleen: You know, I felt the same way. I can do Miniwolf, but can't do Wolflette.

I have been away from WoW for awhile now, and that guild is one of the things I miss most. It was one of the best guilds I have ever been in. Great people for sure. I hope I can get my computer up and running again so I can come back.

Speaking of swapping Toddler Stories...

Got Toddlebar Bolt and How to Train Your Dragon for Christmas per your recommendation. He loved Bolt on the plane trip to St. Louis. He hasn't finished it, yet. How to Train Your Dragon is next... after I can peel him away from Toy Story 3!

RAMBLY Political Responses.

Sub-Teach, On monday, I had about 80% of this written as a reply to your comment before I figured I should just drop it into a post. Yay for thought spam from simple commentary. To be clear: I'm not anti-our-current-president. I didn't like his solution for the recession(the bailout(which was started by our previous president)) but I'm certainly not blaming the recession on him. I understand that it was my dear party that thought you could spend AND cut taxes at the same time. I'm not really in favor of the way in which the other party wants to extend the tax cuts(cutting some and not others). I would rather we let all of the tax cuts expire and everyone equally paid a little bit more. BUT I'm really not happy with the idea that we can extend all of them when we are in record levels of national debt, which is what my party espouses. No our current president didn't have much time to fix the economy...and any good/harm he did probably won't be evident

A post!

So Beowulfa recieved the Burning Crusade as one of her many christmas presents. As a side note, she also recieved a picture of a chick with a pet lion. Sort of like Angharad. Anyways, we're poking Drenai characters in a "ooo that would be cool" kind of way. Since it was her birthday present and all... and if the characters were not BElf or Spacegoat then it wouldn't be using the present! So we're going to at least get them to 10. And BElf's are too... pretty in an ugly way. I don'ts like them. She doesn't like them(much?). I said Spacegoat. She quickly created a male drenai priest(this morning). We talked about it at lunch and she's going to make a paladin instead, I think. I slightly warned her off of priest because I've heard they solo about as well as a warrior heals. I'm.... undecided. We have warrior, paladin, mage, priest, shaman, hunter. I've been told I need to be something tankish. So mage and priest are gone. I'm definin
