WoW Chix

I’m in a bad mood today, dear readers. I don’t feel well, my hubby isn’t here to comfort me and I want ice cream. *sigh* So many things I should be doing but I’m here instead. Ranting about crap. Not actual crap mind you… just general crap *shrug*

Limeonade is now lvl 35 and just minutes away from 36. I’ve been playing her every now and then, not as hardcore as I’d like. But I’ve had other things going on and I’ve been uber sick this week =(

As for the site, I haven’t been working on it much as it seems that most of the writers that had signed up to post for the site have now lost interest. There are only 2 (it seems) that still want to be involved. It’s a little disheartening because I was overly excited to get such a good sized group that wanted to participate but now they have just kind of… fallen off the face of the earth =(

I’m still working on a new front page. I have one made up, it just isn’t live yet. I was hoping I would have more content built up to put on it before I made it live, but now that’s been put on hold as well *shrug*

Note to self: Stop *shrug*’ing so much…

I thought these were kinda cute. Print em out, cut em out, and give em out to your WoWentine!

Gee it’s been a while since I’ve updated. I didn’t realize how long it’d been. My Gnome Rogue, Limeonade, is now lvl 24 (very close to 25 even). She should have been at least 30 by now but I’ve had other stuff going on. I’m specc’ing her Combat. Seems to working out ok so far. I pretty much know nothing about Rogues at all so I’m going by Rob’s guidance since he has a 50 Rogue. Also, Matt, a friend from Turalyon, is able to give me all the tips and tricks as he has a 70 Rogue.

The guild I’m in now is made up of Rob’s co-workers haha. It’s kind of funny. They made their own little guild. Only think that sucks is that no one is on during the day when I am… they are all at work =( So there’s not really anyone to talk to or anything. But I’ve always liked being in the same guild as Rob *shrug*

As for my Horde toons, I haven’t really logged on them very much in the last month. The guild that my toons were in decided to kick me out because I hadn’t played in a while. *shrug* So the fuck what. No big loss. Not like they were progressing anyway. That and the fact that Rob and I were always stuck on the back burner and ignored half the time kind of made it so that I don’t really give a damn. Ok enough of my bitching

I’m working on the new front page for the site. It’s not quite finished, so it’s not live yet. I’ll post an update when it’s about ready. The writer’s for the site have started to sign up and get their material ready. I know that one of them even has a blog site here on WoWChix.com. I guess I’m going to need a Blog Roll link somewhere now. I’ll get to it… at some point

Ok, so I broke down and spent some money that I shouldn’t have on yet another T-shirt. My favorite place to buy t-shirts has been J!nx for the past, I dunno, 2 years or so. Mainly because it’s one of the few places that a fat kid like me can get cute WoW shirts that actually fit and are comfortable. Anway…

I’ve been reading the WoW forums a lot, and all I see is a lot of “QQ” and “REPORTED” being plastered all over the place. Not to mention in live play as well. I think all the “reported” shit is just… well… shit. I mean every single 12 year old out there playing WoW thinks it’s the cool thing to do to scream and shout “reported” all over the place.

So I was browsing through J!nx (as I do probably on a daily basis to see what else I can spend money on haha) and I happened on upon this T-shirt:

I laughed out loud at my finding this with perfect timing haha. So I ordered one last night and it should be here either Wednesday or Thursday. *squeals with delight* Can’t wait. I’m retarded, yes, I know, shut up.

In other news, my WoW time ran out this morning *cries* I guess I’m gonna go pick up a game card or something this week *whines* I MISS MY LIMONADE!!! She’s so cute with the green eyes and the blue hair and the tiny little jiggly butt. Ok, ok, I’m done. *giggle*

Cheers,

Jess

It is SO good to be back in my own home and with my own things and around my babies (my 3 kitties and my doggy) and in my own office in my own leather recliner. *sigh of relief* I love my home haha.

I’ve been a busy little beaver since I’ve been home. Working on my jewelry site, making new stuff for the winter carnival and buying all the things I need to get my table set up tomorrow has kept me busy. I’m a little nervous, what if no one likes my stuff? What people scoff and laugh because my stuff sucks balls? *psssh* Fuck that, my shit rocks and I know it *whew* I’m gonna kick ass tomorrow and make some mad cash…. *whimpers* I hope.

Anyway, in actual WoW news, (or at least in MY WoW news) for some odd reason I had an urge to make an Alliance character. My hubby has some friends at work that play on the Alliance side of Muradin, so he made a character there and I decided I would make one, too. I gotta say, my little gnome Rogue, Limeonade (with green hair of course), kicks some ass. She’s only level 7. But I didn’t realize that I would like playing her so much. I do have a lvl 41 Nelf Hunter, but I have never had the desire to go back and play her. I really like playing Limeonade, even though I hate the lower lvls, I can see myself playing her more often. I know that right now, Greg is mentally kicking me in the shin and cursing me for not playing my priest more. Let me explain how I feel about WoW right now:

I love WoW. I love WoW probably a lot more than a girl should love a video game. It makes me happy. If I’m stressed about RL shit, I can log onto my fantasy world and play my little people and make them do what I want them to do. I don’t have to do anything I don’t want to. But lately, I find myself not logging on… because, I feel so stuck with my Priest. I’m so pressured to do anything and everything. Raid this, gear that, rep here, and grind there. For the most part, when I play Amedeah, I’m sitting around doing nothing. No one wants to get a group together for anything I need because they are all off doing their own thing. No big deal though, I can always go grind my Netherwing Rep… which is pretty much all there is for me to do unless I get a group for badges. I’m tired of people telling me what to do on my Priest. I love my priest, a lot. I’ve spent so much time on her. Same goes for my mage, but I feel the same with her. There is only so much I can do on my own.

My guild is nice and all. But a lot of them are rather hypocritical and/or condescending.  Don’t get me wrong, there have been times (like when I first joined) where people made time to help me out with things, go on runs with me, whatever. But now, I can say something in guild chat and I’m ignored. *pssh* Whatever. I’m not the only one it happens to either. I’ve seen other people get ignored or completely looked over. So many times I’ve been told, “Oh Ame, just let me know what you need and I’m there,” or “Hey, just let me know where you need a run through and I’ll go.” But when it comes down to it, I can’t count on any of them *sigh* I’ve gone way outta my way, spent MY gold and MY time to help others. Even if it wasn’t on some big scale. But I’ve sat through many a raid with my raging headaches and my even worse back pain… just because they were short a healer… even though I had only planned to be on for 20 minutes or so. Bah. Whatever.

TBH, only a few people come to mind when I think about those that have helped in me in the game. My hubby, of course, has been the biggest help to me. I can’t even put into words how much. I wouldn’t even still be playing if it weren’t for him. Helel (Matt) has always helped whenever needed, was always down for a run. Shadowlife (Tony) was the same. These two were in my first guild, Crimson Tears. We just kinda stuck together after that. And then of course there’s Thurlarn/Peiyotee (Greg). A smartass to say the least (it’s part of his charm haha), but has never said no to helping when he can.

It’s kind of funny really, Rent to Pwn, that I joined with my Shaman right before Christmas, has been more supportive and is always offering to help with whatever I need. I’m always sure to get a good bunch of laughs and I always feel good while playing with those guys (and girls!). I’m not trying to bash the guild that Amedeah is in. Not by any means at all. I’m just saying that I feel more comfortable and appreciated and… I dunno… wanted. I feel like when I log into Amedeah’s guild, no one gives a damn. But when I log on to Koos or Thread, everyone says hi and what not.

I don’t think I want to try and raid right now. It’s just not working out with my current schedule. And I find it really boring anyway. It’s not worth all the gold I spend on pots, food, etc, only to die a million times because people don’t know what they are doing (and won’t listen to those that do). Right now, I’m happy logging on to Koos and doing a few quests here and there and now, possibly playing my gnome a little more. We’ll see how things pan out. But raiding just isn’t an option for me right now.

*Note* I really don’t want anyone in FL that might be reading this right now to get the wrong idea. I don’t dislike the guild or anyone in it. I just don’t feel that FL’s plans are for me, at least not at this time. If they wish to remove me from the guild, that’s ok by me. I would like to remain in the guild with Amedeah, but if the GM’s feel that I shouldn’t be there, ok then. I’m not trying to bitch about it or anything like that. I just wanted to make that note.

Ok *deep breath* enough of my whining about WoW for tonight. I still have things I need to get done to get ready for tomorrow morning. I have to be at Violet’s school by around 11am I think, possibly even a little earlier. We’ll see how things go.

Cheers,

Jesster
