So I ran around with 8 level 70's and we took out the World Dragons tonight. I'm level 62 now, so it was a lot of fun. Old content, but hey... it was great gold. :)
Need to hardcore work at leveling tomorrow. I've been slack this past week... it sucks. I'm starting into Terrokar for the second time... it's strange doing everything from the other faction. Hehehe.
Goodnight all.

Jezza...
I'm only 61 atm. *sadface*
Had to spend a couple of days cleaning up some spyware/spam that sadly got onto my PC (I think from Project Playlist). I've also been out during the day a lot this week... so my play time has been cutback lately.
I am still determined to get 70 before you get back from vacation.
Don't worry... I miss you too. *hearts*

Realm Downtime. Noooooes.
So I hit 60 last night. That makes my second level 60 warlock AND second level 60 character, period. I'd forgotten how much of a bitch it was gathering the shit for the warlock epic mount quest. Pewpew.
It's storming here right now. Not a huge storm, but enough to have made the power shutoff earlier. I hate it when the power just shuts off enough to reset everything, and that's it. Why not just fucking go out? Argh.
Lots of my friends are away or have been away this weekend. /cry
According to the patchnotes Incinerates graphics have been improved. I don't think I've used that spell in over a month... for one because the gnome obviously doesn't have it yet and two, because I rarely used it on Jade. The ability to specc into Improved Shadowbolt always made it make more sense to use because it placed a shadow vuln on the mob every time you crit it... and she wasn't a heavy destro lock, so yeah. I wonder if it actually looks better? Also, shadow wands will no longer look like death coil, I guess. Damn.
Also, various UI issues have been fixed/improved. The ability to bind keys by halves on your keyboard is being introduced. I'm unsure of if I'll ever effectivly use this as a warlock but we'll see. I have tons of spells, but I've managed thus far to happily only bind things with the old style bindings. Especially in pvp, I have my doubts that I'll substitute my mouse hand into using my right shift key for bindings, etc. I don't think this is a bad addition to the game, even if I won't be making much use of it.
So, here's to getting my epic warlock mount then promptly buying a chicken, most likely. I hate using mana to mount. It's like 'Oh, I just finished killing 12 mobs chained together, I'm out of mana but I want to get the fuck out of this area... oh wait, I can't mount.' Argh, yeah. Annoying.
I'm bored and hungry. I guess I'm out to go eat and bum around for the next few hours before realms are back up.

Mostly Non-WoW Related Post
I have no idea why but for some reason I was thinking about this video today:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=JXmlA3p7EXo
I was actually watching the live broadcast of that thing when that happened. I still laugh whenever I think of it... and I don't really like Kanye West that much, but I can't say he was entirely wrong there.
Poor Mike Myers. :D
On the WoW side of things, I logged onto Jade for awhile to enchant some old friends. While there, I had two different guilds attempt to get me to play Horde again. Lol. It's funny how much the horde has changed in the two weeks I've been absent from it. Sorry guys, but Jade is retired from the raiding scene. There is a chance that I'll do favours for some of my good friends that side in regards to raiding, as Jago knows, but that's about it. I really don't have any interest in Hordeside raiding anymore. Much love to those who still want me around though.

So far, so good.
So in case you didn't already know it, I've been leveling a gnome warlock. . You should all know that she is sexy and I'm loving my decision to go Alliance. I spent countless hours staring at Jade's boney figure and half decayed limbs... and honestly... it's refreshing playing something cute.
I'm a leveling beast if I must say so myself. 9 days played time and she's nearing 55. :D
Could be going faster, I know, but I've been taking the opportunity to spend time doing lots of other bullshit since I don't have a raiding schedule to work into my life currently. I should be 70 before Jezza gets back... at least I'd better be. He's gone for two weeks. *sadface*
But yeah... loving my gnome and not regretting any of the choices I made regarding WoW. Escape Artist is hacks.. though I do miss Will of the Forsaken. GG for being on the fear ward side of the game though. pewpew.

WoW is Like Acting
Even though I'm not on a Role Playing Server, WoW is still a place in which people take on roles that aren't the same as who they are outside of the game. I've played on a RP server before, ages ago, until about level 20. It was rather different from a normal server, at the time. No idea how they are now.
I think it's unique and somewhat weird when people seriously take on their characters role. I mean some people are very much into the game... their name and the life of their character, it's all very detailed and meaningful. Honestly, maybe that's what this game should have been from the start. I know many other RPG's are the same way... and then there's always conventions attached to them in which players and fans dress the part and act like their characters... in real life. It's all different, that's for sure. A lot of the people on normal realms make fun of RP realm players... but realistically, they are more hardcore into the game than most of the people I've come across on my normal realms. You heard me.
Back to my original point, WoW in general is a lot like acting. You're playing a role, though it's very liberal and in your own interpretation of how you think it should be played, it's still a role. It amazes me the sides of themselves people let out in WoW. It's like every asshole thing some people think of doing at work and shit, they bring it home and take it out through their character. It's kind of sad.. and pathetic. But then again, maybe some people are just acting that way? Hmm.

Time.
Jade's Played Time:
Total: 157 days, 21 hours, 50 minutes, 33 seconds.
@ 70: 50 days, 5 hours, 44 minutes, 14 seconds.
What's yours?
(My total is probably more than how long most of you have been playing. haha.)
