Turtles, rats, weird, floating eye-balls..?

I wish I could be all sage and grown-up about it, but this will bug me. I've decided to not go for the For the Children-achievement this year, mainly because I can't make myself do School of Hard Knocks. My PvP-skills as a huntress are basically non-existant, and I can't work up enough energy to find a premade that would be OK with my nab-ishness.

While I know it's the best I can do in order to keep my sanity, the little OCD-part of me is going "WTF GO FOR IT!!! COMPLETE THE ACHIEVEMENT!!! KILL!!! KILL!!!", and well, I suppose I could complete it. But I wouldn't have fun, and that's ultimately what I'm after when playing the game.

Maybe I'll have had the opportunity to improve my hunter PvP-ing in time for next year's Children's Week, but for now, I'm happy with the pets. I'm a bit bummed we didn't get a Northrend version of the event, though :/

Anyway, a big, giant congrats to all the players who have gotten their Matron/Patron title, and a big, warm hug of encouragement to those still working towards theirs :)

OK, I'm off to get some lunch, and then my retired druid will be getting her Willy, and with him Veteran Nanny <3 (It might be just me, but that sounds awfully wrong. Still, leaving it as it is :P)

In the Meantime.

I spent most of yesterday pvp-ing with my druid, in battlegrounds. Alterac Valley weekend - w00t! Managed to scrape together a little bit more than 9000 honour, partly by selling marks. All battlegrounds except one were AV, the "one" was Warsong Gulch, and I was convinced it was going to last forever. The hordelings started camping our graveyard, in an attempt to leave a clear path for their flagcarrier. Luckily, the clear path worked both ways, and we won. 3 marks, which, together with the 2 I had in the bank, led to 1570 extra honour.

My goal is this fancy staff, and yeah, yeah, it'll be old the second Northrend opens, but I still want it. If nothing else, it should be great for levelling. About 9000 honour to go, so I guess I should be able to buy it in a couple of days. I'm also planning to get the whole season 2 Wyrmhide set together, simply in order to not look like a total clown when I'm saving Northrend from undead, and bonding with walruses.
