Chilling/Changes

I've pointed out earlier how the summer seemed to be over, and sadly it's gotten more and more obvious as the days have passed. I'm wearing a sweater made of the wool from what might be several goats, and finally I'm not shivering. It's not extremely cold in the apartment, but the drop in temperature is noticeable. Also, I'm getting older :( I really should do something about that "start working out again"-plan. Once I get some nice looking pants for it, I may very well start running. Or I'll start doing triathlon, or start a religion dedicated to clogwearing chinchillas.

Anyway, still stoked about the upcoming WoW-changes, even though I can understand raiders becoming frustrated that the last month pre-expansion will be screwed up due to every class being different enough to mess with all the available strategies, and arena junkies wont be too thrilled either, I guess, for the same reasons. I, however, can't hardly wait.

5 pm, cloudy.

Sadly, summer seems to be thinking about going on vacation. It's been a sweet one, though - lots of ice cream, late nights gaming, and that warm weather I'm so fond of (yeah, yeah, I'm oh so original) - and I'm already looking forward to the next one.

The husband returned from a work trip on Monday evening - as stated earlier he's spent a week in Canada - and he's still recovering from jet lag and waaay too much limp coffee. He made an interesting discovery while abroad: The fact that he uses the english language every day while playing WoW, doesn't necessarily mean that his spontaneous "every day-english" is flawless. Apparently the phrase popping out of his mouth when greeting people was "Hi 2 U!" All I can say about that is /faceplam.

As I've said earlier, I've been playing my druid quite a lot lately - mostly because I rediscovered the fun parts about being a moonkin, but also because the next expansion is coming closer, and there are things I'd like to have done before the level cap is raised, and the rat race starts all over again. Now, I'm not much of a raider, even though that part can be so much fun - I had a short stint as a resto druid in Karazhan - so I'm not aiming at Kil'jaeden, but there are a bunch of other things I want to have done on my druid before going to Northrend:

  • Reaching exalted with the pre-TBC Alliance factions
  • Getting a Tiny Sporebat (which requires exalted rep with Sporeggar)
  • Collecting a decent set of PVP-gear, for battleground fun, and in order to manage the odd heroic. Yes, I'm one of those people. (Welfare epics ftw-people.)
  • Actually getting the fancy pants Swift Flight Form
There's probably a whole lot of other things I want to do too, but these are the ones I can think of at the moment.

I do have other, non-druid related, plans too, though, such as getting my rather new human priest to 70 (she's still only 25), and playing around as holy for a bit. Should be doable with all the fancy tailoring gear. I'm also aiming at getting my mage and my shaman to 70 - both have been stuck at 65 for a while.

Anyway, enough talk, too little action.
