Had a pretty good weekend. On Friday I played way too much Warcraft, as usual, so nothing new there. Saturday my mother and I headed over to my brother Danny’s house to spend the Easter Weekend. We were having family over there on Sunday, so she wanted to get the house ‘in shape’ for guests. I worked on leveling my Horde Hunter, so  that I can get her to level 60 to boost.

I honestly cannot stand the new crap with leveling. It feels like it takes so much longer to clear a zone and leveling is so damn slow. I am nowhere near level 60 … before getting to level 60 would probably take a day … two max. Dungeons take forever and don’t give ‘more’ experience (which I would guess they would do so that you could level faster, but nope). I’m just frustrated. Hopefully I get her to 60 soon, then I can use the free boost on her and have a 110 horde (to unlock the races/looks/mounts and pets). I also decided to give this toon two professions I need for a meta achievement (Blacksmithing + Jewelcrafting). While I have alliance toons (slowly) working on these, I just want this achievement over with (I’m impatient that way). Plus with leveling as slow as it is these days, I probably won’t work on them for some time. Anyway, but boosting the toon, it will max those two professions (if she’s level 60). Sooo yeah. Gah.

Anyway, bro got home from work around 6pm, we had dinner (delicious lasagna) and then we watched some movies. I finally saw the third installment of the Mazerunner. It was seriously kick ass. I loved it. Lots of action, very emotional, and just constantly on the edge of my seat the whole film. Definitely worth it if you haven’t checked it out yet. I give it a 10/10.

Then we saw Priest again. I really enjoy that movie and it always rekindles my love for Paul Bettany. I really wish he did more films… he’s such a great actor.

Afterward, he went to bed and I continued my NCIS marathon. I finished seasons 12 this weekend and have started season 13 last night. Catching up slowly… thought I know Michael Weatherly leaves at the end of season 13, which makes me sad. He’s the glue to that team with his jokes… No one can replace him! Though, I said no one could replace Ziva, but I’ve been enjoying the Bishop character… but yeah. NO ONE can replace DiNozzo man … he’s the best. I also think season 15 is Abby’s last season sooooo this will definitely be the last one I watch I think. Still, 14-15 seasons of a show is pretty great.

Sunday I got up a little late (11am). I played a little Warcraft (still no level 60 toon!) … and then we had Easter dinner around 4:30pm. It was baked ham and rice with shrimp. It was super delicious. The photo doesn’t do it justice (as it was taken with my cell phone too).

It was nice to hang out, chat and have some good laughs. After dinner and some dessert (mousse + brownies), we sat around and watched the new Jumanji film. I was surprised by how good it was. I had been putting off watching it, thinking it would be dumb, but it was absolutely hilarious. Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart need to do more movies together… they’re great. I laughed way too much, which is always a plus. I give it a 8/10. The guy who had to pretend to be a stuck up female teen btw, was the absolute best! I loved it.

Then, I let my bro play his video game since Trisha and Nelson left, and I went to finish off season 12 of NCIS.

So yeah, it was a nice/chill weekend.

Now that we’re only a month away from our graduation here at work, things have been busy/intense. Finalizing lists, getting things ordered for the day, confirming graduates, ordering diplomas … etc, etc. Once the graduation is over though, things will be dull as a doorknob around here, so it’s just getting through this next month.

Hopefully tonight I can hit level 50 on the horde character. She’s 42 right now (it’s so slow!!!!!!!!!!!!). I get wanting to make it so you could quest wherever you wanted (diversifying zones to level in), but this slow ass shit is driving me insane. LOL. Eighteen more levels …. I got this!

Quick news ... the itch to write has been getting stronger. I have some ideas in my head as usual, but I just need to actually write and stop slacking off. Ugh. Hopefully I can finish the draft for this book this week so I can start to write it. 

I think I need to find a moodtheme for this blog AND some more icons. Hmmm.

Now that the expansion is winding down, and the new one is on the horizon, things are slowing down in Warcraft. Been working on achievements in between raid nights. I'm almost at 19k achievement points, which is close to where my old account was at (my old account was about 19600 I believe).
achievepoints

So getting there slowly (okay I've only had this account a little over a year, so actually that's good lmao).

Poop news ... the last week and a half we haven't raided at all because of a healer issues. If anyone out there actually reads this and plays Warcraft and is on Alliance side... we could use a full-time druid or monk healer.

We've gotten 9/11 bosses down. Currently on Aggramar. Got him down to 53% on our first night last week, which was pretty good considering we didn't have a lot of classes with CC (for the adds). Hopefully we get this healer stuff figured out so we can get AOTC before the next expansion releases. Really sucks considering we're so close to getting it (two bosses man!).

In other news, celebrated my mother's birthday last Saturday. We went out to Hibachi and invited my Godmother and uncle to come. It was a fun night and our Hibachi guy was pretty funny (not as funny as our cruise guy, but still pretty good).

Some photos that I took with the phone since I didn't bring my camera (so the quality is meh). In the fire one you can see my mom kinda freak out... haha! I got the shrimp and lobster with the lo'mein and rice. Was SO good. I also got a 'mudslide' for a drink, also delicious.

Afterward we went to Danny's house and watched a few movies. Finally watched the latest Thor film, which was absolutely amazing. Already bought a copy for myself, ha! I love Chris Hemsworth... not only because he's absolutely hot, but because he's actually a good actor. I am somewhat meh for the new Avengers. That movie will have to be 5 hours to give each character ANY justice... I think they've got way too many 'big names' in this one to make it work right, but hopefully I am wrong. That should be out soonish.

In great news ... I've read 28 books so far this year (14 ahead of schedule).

I'm glad work has been relatively quiet lately because I get to read a bit at work. Though, pretty sure things are going to pick up now that we're nearing Graduation. Gah. I hate this time of year. lol.

This weekend is Easter. I'm very happy for this because I gave up coffee for lent and it has been awful LOL. I finally get to drink coffee on Sunday... it's going to probably feel really weird ha! I may have to call out on Monday :P We're going to be at Danny's for Easter so yeah. I now have my laptop there since I built a gaming PC, so hopefully I can get more achievements done this weekend. Though that laptop is soooo slow... but eh. Plus my bro's net sucks, which is kind of sad because pays extra for 'faster' internet and his is slower than mine!

Oh well.. I am going to go work on a few more achievements then hit the hay. I was off today and tomorrow so w00t!
