Not Payment

"Alice woke up slowly."

This is all I have written. The story is there but normally my brain is better rested. Normally I don't go get all gamedrunk on weekends(18.6 hours in 2 days /played time).

I know the outlines of what happens next. I am just failing with the adversb and adjectives. The smells and sights and sounds. The feelings. Etc. So Payment posts this week are unlikely if my muse doesn't wake up and get out of the gutter. I am still writing something this week for a weekly story. Just most likely nothing on Payment. We'll see.

So I am giving you a random thoughts post(aka my usual fare before the stories started coming). I have been very pleased to discover the quality writers that were lurking in my guild. I love the new guild blog and it is quickly rising to the top my blog rankings.

The most pleasant result of this last weekend's gaming binge was the discovery that WoW no longer dominated my conversations and thoughts. While I'm sure my present obsession was just as disturbing to my family; for me it was nice to be enthralled by something new. This had not happened in a long time.

I still like WoW but I am happiest when it is more of a poker night thing and less of a life-aspect thing. I am attempting to get RTW under control as well and hope to eventually use the games to balance eachother. So that a single game doesn't define me.

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.

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.

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.
