…to both blogging and a major guilty pleasure/time-suck: World of Warcraft. I’m a bit embarassed to admit to it on the Intarwebs, but no one reads this site anyway, ha ha.
Warning: Geekiness and WoW-speak ensues:
The spouse and I have taken up the game again as PvE-only (for now) duo-only (for now) as the power combo Paladin – Warlock. We’ve hit level 24 in as many hours /played, and last night cleared Shadowfang Keep with one death (not wipe, you’ll note) due to an unfortunate spot of bad luck involving an unexpected roving patrol and Arugal’s Gift ticking just as the SS on my Pally expired. Still, it was quite a rush to take down the whole place on our own.
I can only imagine that this will spark the first ever comment on my site, and that comment will be making fun of 1) my WoW admission or, and more likely, 2) our SFK run, claiming that duoing SFK at 24 is totally lame and a cakewalk for any class combo. I don’t know, maybe Blizzard nerfed SFK since I last played (over a year ago…), but it was damn fun. So there.
End Warcraft Geekery
Other noteworthy goings-ons: soccer starts up again this weekend, I’m taking a fencing class that starts next week, and ZOMGFOOTBALL!! So expect more on all these topics. Or not, if my posting frequency record is any indication. Also note the belated posting of a travel summary, which has been sitting, dormant and ignored, on my iPhone as a “Local Draft”. At least it has finally seen the light of day.
After a nail-biting, coronary-inducing victory for my Spartans, I was planning on a relaxing lazy Saturday. And it’s mostly been that. Got some laundry done, watched some random bits of other football games, that kind of thing.
