No flies on me

Within 2 hours, I managed to get nearly 20% of the way through level 81. I knew leveling in Cataclysm seemed like it was going to be pretty quick, but sheesh… I chose to hit Vashj’ir first over Mount Hyjal, mainly because of Drach’s post. It just seemed like the right thing to do. I’m not crazy about having to …

The journey is about to begin

I think I’m about ready.

Distancing myself from the blog and the game has done me a lot of good. I conquered some additional workload, enjoyed the holidays, and have successfully lowered my stress level to a comfortably manageable place.

I myself happened to hit 85 mining… that’s right, not killing some epic beast, or toiling over some arduous quest, nope… mining. I about cracked up that what put me over the edge was one little Elementium node… Go mining!!!

Epic Gear, I Hardly Knew Ye…

Drach, Draenei HunterSo, I hope you all are still enjoying the expansion. It has been a wild ride for sure. I wanted to check in with everyone and see if you all are grieving the loss of your epic items that we all worked so hard on?

I understand it, don’t get me wrong, we are upgrading. That’s part of the allure of games like this; improving our characters and getting them better gear…it’s what we do.
