Weekend Recap

imarciIt was a very nice weekend. The weather had been perfection … then Mother Nature has to go and ruin the prospect of spring by bringing us snow tomorrow. Evil bish. Ugh.
Anywho…. On Friday a guildie helped me out and we got the last 3 levels I needed to hit 60 on the horde character, so that I could unlock the stupid Horde end of the new classes/mounts/achievements, etc. I’ll have to actually go and make the characters, just so I can unlock their mounts as well. I’m just glad I got Blacksmithing and Jewelcrafting out of the way.
Saturday I was working on the monk which has the last two professions I need to get the big (75 point) achievement; leatherworking and skinning. I’ve been having a lot of fun leveling her and am actually considering swapping mains in the next expansion to her… but I don’t know. I’ve been a Paladin for SO long. I know the rotation, it’s simple, etc. It’s my comfort, and we all know I never like to leave my comfort zone…. Ever.
Monk’s are a little trickier and procs can make a big difference in the rotation, which can make me anxious. There’s really only one proc for Paladins and they have like five spells total. Monk’s got a bit more. But they’re fun and different, so I dunno. I am definitely thinking about it, and I’ll see how things actually go in the next expansion for each class. Plus, they already have a ret paladin, and I really don’t want to feel like I’m stepping on people’s toes. I know they really want a ranged class… but I dunno. I’ve never been into ranged classes. I mean I guess I could level the lock too and just see how that goes. Gah.
Also, there’s a LOT of sexy mog for leather. I feel like there are a lot more for leather than there is for plate, so I dunno. She’s only level 48 and she’s already rockin’ a sexy mog… haha.
So yeah. That’s weighing on me right now. But anyway… that’s far away and I have time to decide. Saturday I also got the last achievement for the Easter event meta. I swear, there needs to be more undead females. Took forever to get that last one!
With this Meta done, I have TWO more to finish before I get the really big one “it’s been a long trip” or some crap like that. Though, I don’t know if I’ll ever get it. One of the achievements I need is to have my orphan out on BG’s and do things like capture the flag etc. I hate that shit. So… I may never get it. I just have no patience to battle people to capture a flag in a BG when capturing the flag is technically NOT the actual object (it’s holding towers). PLUS, everyone will be hunting that achievement, so it’s just a serious clusterfuck of bodies and annoying to everyone involved (especially the regular PvP players). Sigh. Blizzard makes shit so annoying sometimes. I wish they’d get rid of that one.
I also gave in and bought the Lightforged Warframe mount from the Army of the Light people’s. It’s a very nice looking mount, but it cost 500k gold, which put quite the dent in my character’s pocket, and now I feel like I have to always use it since it’s redonkulously expensive. NOT as expensive as the spider… but still. It is nice and glowy though … which I do like. These screenshots don’t really do it justice.
Yesterday we went over to Nelson and Trisha’s house. They were celebrating their one year anniversary (can’t believe my baby brother has been married a year, geezus). They invited my brother Danny, Trisha’s parents, Trisha’s brother/family and my mom and I. We had some finger food and partook in eating the top layer of their wedding cake, which has been frozen for the past year (a tradition of ours). Surprisingly, it wasn’t awful. Hahah.
Then we all hung out, watch some television and chatted. I feel like I haven’t seen Ava (Trisha’s sis-in-law) in ages. She brought her babies, which aren’t babies anymore… seriously, WHERE does time go? The little one was JUST born but she’s already almost as tall as her big brother, and walking up a storm. It’s great but it just reminds me how fast time is going, and it’s just slipping away. Soon enough Trisha will be popping out a baby or two as well… I can’t wait to have nieces or nephews, but man … time is crazy to me.
We hung out there until almost 11PM. Watched my brother play a scary VR game, which wasn’t that scary and just very weird. I think the Batman VR one was a lot more fun (especially to watch). Got home a little after 11:30PM and decided I wanted to do a little writing. I know… SHOCKING. What’s even crazier? I got two full chapters written before I went to bed. Yeah. I’m nuts. Oh and kicker? I have a TITLE for it already too! I know… the world is legit ending right now.
I’m slowly working on this book today in-between work, but who knows if I’ll stick to it or what. Most likely I’ll give up again in a day or two… as per usual. I just feel like nothing I ever write is any good, but then others read it and they enjoy it. I don’t know WHY I am so damn hard on myself… I really don’t. Anyway … back to writing I go (and hope it continues).
