fups, foops, and michelle

Michelle is hurting after a personal training session that happened Monday. She wonders if she’ll ever be able to sit down and stand up with out pain. LOL

Fups is doing by far greater than her RL counterpart. She is now, one healing boot away from being an epic’d out player! Now, I realize that Kara gear fails to compare to the new raid gear and shit, but I don’t care. I never thought that I would be dressed all in purple with healing at 1200 unbuffed (I still need to add some healing gems to my new pants). I’ve been doing a lot of the Isle dailies, but my favorite dailies by far are cooking and fishing and Nagrand is just easy. I figure if I do 10 dailies a day, that’s about 100 g plus whatever else I get along the way. SO,  in no time, I’ll have that epic flyer. I am just 2K away right now. I can’t wait.

Yesterday I had the best hit I’ve ever had in softball. It was a rip and it was a few feet into the green. Unfortunately, there was a person there to catch it, but it was awesome just the same.

One another note, I have reached 3000 gold! and just need some epic pants to be all purple!

This past weekend was actually really good. On Friday, Dev and I went to Bloomington. My brother’s bday is actually today, but he was out celebrating Friday night. I brought him out a cake and watched him get really drunk. Then I proceeded to take all his money (which I gave back) and took him out to Steak’n’ Shake (on him). Saturday, I went to lunch with Mrs. Rozboril, my high school English teacher. It was good to catch up with her and hear what’s going on. I had to work on Saturday night at CC. It wasn’t a horrible night and I made contact with a friend from Library School and so that was good. We were house and dog sitting for Beth and so I went there after work. Dev and I read and then went to sleep. On Sunday I had 2 things that HAD to be done. Kopi with the gang, and the first softball game of the summer. We went to Kopi about 11:30 and had a nice time seeing everyone. I will hopefully post my sailboat picture soon. After that, Dev and I went to the batting cages so I could get some practice. It went okay, but I wasn’t feeling totally confident. We picked up Des and hung out with her on the back deck at Beth’s all afternoon. It was great to sit out in the sun and soak it up and take it in and talk. We left Beth’s just after 7 and headed to the softball field. It was a bit cold, but I wore shorts anyway. My first up to bat, there was one out and J was on 3rd. I ripped it (almost to the green) I am not sure what happened, but it was by fault of the other team, but I got to first and J got home. 2 more hits after that, and I got to come on home! It’s only happened once or twice before. I didn’t base again, but I didn’t strike out. We lost the game, but went down fighting. It was a great weekend.

I am too lazy to read what the last actual WoW update was, so I’ll just start with Tralls Drunken Warriors. As I said, I transfered Fups (70 Resto Sham) over to Feathermoon to be with Foops (55 Ret Pally) and Fupsvend (36 Frost Mage). So playing with Danny and friends on Feathermoon was pretty fun for awhile. Foops was getting up there and had met a pally friend and was making  headway, but the 50’s are always hard, and now the 60s are even harder. My friend Aj went and hit 70 boo on him. In TDW things were going slow, it seems like everyone has about 50 alts and all I was doing was running people through SFK. It’s not that I mind helping out, but when someone whom I don’t know and whom has never talked to me whispers me (only because I am 70) and asks me to run them through somewhere, I get a bit upset. You could at least say Hello before asking for a run. So then I decided that I would team up with Aj with Fups since she was already his level and we did some quests and had some fun. I was working on my fishing and being all around bored most of the time. So I made a decision. I decided to leave TDW and try to find a casual raiding guild that was doing Kara. I /gquit and was a free agent. I put a couple of “Resto Sham looking for guild” and nothing. I continued to fish and play the AH, surprisingly racking up some serious cash. Somewhere in all the above BOB!!! my bestest WoW friend made a character on Feathermoon and brought over his high 60s warrior. Him and I started doing quests and getting him to 70. Upon 70 we realized that he needed 1200g to get his flying mount skill since he had never gotten his epic ground skill. Luckily I had 1210g and I happily gave it to him. We flew around and caused havoc. He’s already paid me back 200g and with that I already have about 600g. So anyway, I put out another LFGuild and get a bite. Ja pmed me and said they were looking for another  healer for Kara and that if I wanted I could come a long a couple of times and stuff. So I did, I raided with them on Monday and Wednesday and submitted my guild app. I got invited to a group for Magister’s Terrace and did what I think is a horrible job healing. We wiped a lot. I did do some reading on that instance later and it appears good healers with awesome gear have problems. Well, luckily, the next night I got to redeem myself. I healed both Old Hilbrand and BM without a single death of any member. I can heal well, when I am in the right situations for my gear. So all this time, I am trying to do things with the guild and talk with them and stuff so that people will vote me in. Last night, before Kara, I got the invite. I am now a full fledge member and it’s exciting to me. I have gotten 3 epic drops and I got my PVP helm and I am trying to make myself a better geared player. Raid again on Wednesday baby!

I am having a bad day. and the sad thing is, I don’t have anyone to talk to about it.

I feel like an update. Dev got her job and we have decided to stay in Champaign. I will continue to work for LTLS. I am excited because we got approved for the townhouse we were looking at it. It is 1800 sqft. There is a basement with 2 rooms. One is a laundry room, with a washer and dryer, I am so excited about that! The other room will need carpeting and a couch/futon of some kind, but will ultimately become the gaming room. On the main floor is the living room, kitchen and a half bath. The kitchen has a dishwasher which is AWESOME. The kitchen and living room are of decent size. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a bath. The biggest bedroom will be ours, the smallest will be an office and the middle will be a guest bedroom. Looks like we will have to buy another bed. I don’t want to wait to July to move, but that’s when we are moving. They allow pets and we are all set. What is cool is because we are pre leasing we get 400 off the first months rent and then 50 off each month for the first year. They also offer free wireless which will save us 40 bucks a month.

So I brought my computer to work with the intention of playing WoW and not working, but really ended  up working a lot and listening to my iTunes and getting songs I was missing. I put on the “party mix” and let it play. I realize that I listen to my music on my iPod, but some of the songs  have never been played on my actual computer, while others have been played over and over. It’s amazing how music has such emotional attachment. I am not really talking about a sad song making you sad, but the memories and feelings that the song provokes personally. Some songs just remind me of high school and Heather and fun in general. Then there are other songs that provoke a very specific situation and person. It’s just funny sometimes.
