Ahem.

So, a lot has happened since my last post. Where to begin…

I do apologize for lack of posting, but might as well not dwell on that.

To start of with the IRL stuff, I moved back home with my parents about a week before Thanksgiving, breaking things off with my now ex-fiance. I’ve been doing well, though after a bit of loneliness and figuring out what just being ‘me’ instead of ‘we’ was like. We were together for two years, and I changed and matured a lot in that time.

So, back to the WoW stuff. Onawar has been 80 for some time now, and is running Naxxramas with Target Dummy. Speaking of which, we decided enough was enough back on our old PvP server of Magtheridon and transferred to our new home on Silver Hand, a RP server. We love being able to quest without fear of gankage. Ona is still specc’d Marks and loving it. I adore Chimera Shot and my 30% crit.

I also transferred my paladin Onathia to the new server, and she’s now 77 fresh with Cold Weather Flying. I tried her as Holy for a bit, but went back to Prot fairly quickly. I don’t see her respeccing any time soon, at least not until dual specs comes out.

Target Dummy is seeing much more success on this server! We have more members than we could have expected and things are going wonderfully. We’re progressing at a good pace and have cleared Spider and Plague wing of Naxx with no trouble (we have a funny habit of leaving only me, our bear tank, and one of the priests alive at the end of the Heigan fight from about 50% or more). We’ve also taken out Sartharion with no drakes and Vault! Not to mention we’ve got two groups for Naxx scheduled now, and hopefully a 25-man Sartharion run in the works! Very exciting stuff for us, considering we never thought we’d get enough people to even think about 25-mans.

So now I’m very sleepy after leveling Onathia from 75 to 77 today, and it’s almost 2am. Hopefully you’ll be seeing more of me in the future. =)

Foreign Shores

It’s less than two weeks until Wrath of the Lich King, and I’ve been going through phases of insane amounts of playtime and a complete lack of it since I last updated the blog. The fiance and I decided to go the Recruit-a-Friend route with some alts, since he was having some slow going with his warrior (his main is a 70 rogue) and I had a paladin sitting around 22 just waiting for some love. As you guys probably know, my first character that I really put some time and effort into was a Draenei paladin before I went Horde, and I had wanted another one for a while. So he made a new account, transferred his warrior, and off we went into 3x XP land. We got to 60 in about two weekends of solid play and some scattered time during the week. So now Onathia the Blood Elf paladin is 62 and tearing up Hellfire.

Or she was until we decided to play with some new alts while we still had the Recruit-a-Friend benefits. So now there’s Onako the Orc shammy running around at level 24 throwing lightning at people in her caster cloth. WTB caster leather, pst. The fiance is playing an Orc hunter. =) Both of us are female Orcs too, because you just don’t see enough of them.

Hawana the Druid has been put on the backburner for now at level 66 while the Altathon happens, because no matter what, Onawar is getting all the love when Lich King comes out. 

Speaking of Ona (Onawar will always be my one and only true Ona) she’s had her fair share of whining during the zombie invasion, killing of the Headless Horseman (got the Sinister Squashling of course!), pet collecting (yay, got the skunk pet and finally got one of the baby crocs!), and toying around with specs and pets. I’ve gone back to Marksman and snagged myself the rare white and blue gorilla from Un’Goro.

I’ve been tricked!

These are the numbers from killing Gruul (just Gruul, I was brought in late) as Marksman. Woo! The number 2 is also a Marks hunter, and number 3 was a shammy.

So now the next step along my path is to sail to the foreign shores of Northrend to do battle with the legions of the Lich King. He has brought his Scourge to our homes in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms, so now we must retaliate for the sake of friends and family. We journied to the alien lands in Outland, and now it is time to return home.

Falling Into Place

My fiance’ and I have finally picked a date for our wedding. We’ll have been engaged for a year in June, and hadn’t been able to decide when to get married due to college, money, insurance issues, etc. Well, we’ve finally just gone “forget it, let’s just pick a date and work around what’s going on in our lives when the time comes.” It’s still a good year and a half away, but Ed and I are going to be married on January 9th, 2010.

My mother and I are going to start looking at chapels, dresses, bridesmaid dresses, I have to pick my bridesmaids, Ed has to pick his groomsmen… /sigh

So much to do and so long to wait!

Sleeping In

I was supposed to be awake at 6:30 this morning… and when I woke up the clock said 9:01. What this means is that I slept through my first class (in which I had to turn in a paper) and was going to be late to my second class. So I just decided not to go.

This has happened two me twice recently, except that last time I had a test in my second class so I jumped out of bed, hastily got dressed, and bolted out the door so I could be 15 minutes late for the test. Oh well, I got there and was able to take it.

Either I’m forgetting to turn on my alarm clock, or I’m turning it off in the morning and then falling back asleep without realizing it.
