Kiting ...

Had good fun so far on WoW today - I have over 10k for my mount now!! Can't believe how fast I am managing to save. Selling lot's of leather, bags and food to fund my mount obsession :-)

I had the weirdest dungeon run last night, (or rather early this morning), we were in Halls of Stone and the tank decided to kite the maiden of grief to the next boss which was insane! We had a few wipes and quite a few people left - turns out they were just trolling and winding up people from different realms to them. It backfired a bit though when the new healer was from their realm too, (Stormrage), and wasn't too pleased, lol. Despite all that it was actually fun and we got it done in the end!

Yay!

Hehe ... Back on WoW! Managed to do a bunch of daily stuff and caught the last day of midsummer. Maybe being so addicted to a game is a bad thing. Nah. I'm not hurting anyone and it's not as if I go out normally, (I have agoraphobia), and I have a lot of fun.

I'm currently saving my gold for a mount which costs 16,000 gold because my guild think it will be a good thing. It has a vendor and a guy who does repairs and carries three people and with me being the mount collector I guess I have to have it. I will be so happy when I finally get it but it's a long hard slog to earn that sort of money despite all the people who claim otherwise. Currently I have just over 8k so I've finally broke the half way mark! :-)

I'm really looking forward to Cataclysm coming out - whenever that may be. My pre-order on Amazon has said September for ages and there has been some preperation work done but I still think it will be nearer Christmas before it hits the shelves.

If there is anything you guys want to me add to this blog, just leave a comment, (this is my first blog by the way so be nice to the noob).

Ahhh ...No WoW - Epic Fail!

I am currently sat in my Mum's living room using a laptop that has been jury-rigged to run off a memory stick, feeling the withdrawal from WoW. You see Mum has changed suppliers and there is a gap in her service - normally I just bring my PC, monitor, case - everything; that's how addicted I am to WoW! Normally by now all regular daily quests would be done, my daily dungeon, (and the midsummer boss), my daily Battleground, a bunch of farming and I Would be hunting down whatever pet, mount, achievement or reputation that I had chosen for that day.

I am trying not to even think about the frost emblems I've 'lost' over the last couple of days. Normally I can earn two per day, (plus any raids I manage to get done), but with the Midsummer Boss, (Frost Lord Ahune), that is doubled to four per day. Damn it!

I am also missing my guildies. The Guild I am in is called Memory of Storms and they are a really awesome bunch of people - most of us were in a guild together before but it broke up after some in-fighting and misunderstandings relating to raiding. I was pretty sad when that happened but now it seems to worked out for the best for everyone involved. Luckily I didn't lose any friends over it.

Well that's enough for my first post ... hopefully there will be more soon.
