A bonfire has gone out.

Last night I was once again in the forest.
It was cold and forbidding but for the lights of the campfires.
The campfires were tended by storytellers, and their guests listened intently.
As before some were brighter than others, some were barely embers.
I made my way from one circle of light to the next, enjoying the company of [...]

Who, Me?

I have been a little out of the loop for the last several weeks. I came back today and started sifting through my feed reader.  If I recall correctly it is sitting at about 350 items left to read, but I am getting there. Imagine my surprise when I found Larisa of the Pink Pigtail Inn [...]

Where I rant about addons

I use addons.
Not many mind you, but I do use a few. If the functions that I wanted were built into the game I would happily not use any at all, but such is life. I don’t use them to make the game more automated, I use them to make it more fun.
I use Auctioneer. [...]

Lesson learned (I hope)

Hey folks, it’s been a while.
A week since I last posted to be exact.
Well, the reasons why have nothing to do with the content of this post so I will keep it brief. Both work and home had a lot going on that demanded my attention. Nothing horrible, just very busy. Suffice it to say [...]

Something is missing

Empty.
That’s a good word for it. It does not quite fit, but it’s a good word.
Have you ever picked up a favorite treat and somehow it just tasted wrong? Not like “eww, this was left out in the sun too long”  Just Wrong?
It still tastes good, but whatever it was that made it “the thing” [...]

What’s My Job Description?

This will come as no surprise to you folks, but it’s once again Monday. I am once again sitting in my office in a horribly tired not yet caffeinated state of mind. As I listen to the coffee pot make burbling hissing noises I started thinking (of all things) about job descriptions.
Just like real life there are [...]

Shh…. this is a stealth post.

Last night I actually found a few minutes to play that were not already consumed with another task. So in the interest of getting absolutely nothing accomplished I was just kind of running circles around Dalaran occasionally hitting trade chat with “[enchanting] Looking for work. My skill, your mats, i’ll pay you 10g if I [...]

Now this would be some drama….

I had a thought this morning, probably as the result of too much coffee in a quiet basement office. I was thinking back to a couple years back. Something that happened to a friends guild.
They were running SSC pretty regularly and had two teams going through Kara every week, usually single night clears. Things were [...]

Yet another Wow Meme

I has been tagged!
Asara from Asara’s Mental Meanderings  (love the title by the way) sent this one my way.
Seems to me that these are meant to be RP-style questions asked to your WoW character. Since I don’t really RP much (read at all) the only character I ever managed to come up with any backstory [...]

A rambling post that has a little to do with warcraft.

Today I am talking more about character than about Wow, although it certainly applies. This has been bouncing around in my head after reading several posts about group dynamics and what it means to be a greedy asshat. While I agree to some extent with points made in both of all those posts, along with [...]
