Well, hello.  Remember me?

>.>

<.<

No? Ah well.  It was bound to happen.  I mean, I did go rogue ‘n all (as in not around.. I’m still a warlock through ‘n through.)

I’m getting more and more hands free moments now that our daughter is about 9 weeks old.  She sure is a snuggle bug.  I forsee Cataclysm in my future… maybe February-ish?

Just don’t hold your breath.

Unless you’re Undead.  Then it shouldn’t matter either way.

My focus for most of this year has certainly been on the impending arrival of my daughter and now the afterparty.  But that doesn’t mean NO gaming for me… just a shift in what I’m able to squeeze in.

I kinda hate to admit it, but for the past month or so, I’ve been really hitting the Facebook games.  I’m really liking CityVille right now.  I can’t help it… they are easy to play one handed on the laptop while holding babygirl.

Gotta do whatcha gotta do, amirite?

As Sideshow mentioned in his last post, we got a Kinect.  I really wanted Dance Central and Kinectimals …. so we have both of those.  I was surprised that Sideshow tried Dance Central first. (continue reading…)

Kinect and Dinosaur Bones

I think it may have finally happened. I actually was able to procure something in-game before mostly everyone else already has it. I have been playing Gertbee, my (now) level 83 Dwarf Hunter more than Sideshow recently. No real reason, I just have been enjoying that character more. I also haven’t really been leveling in the new areas too much. I’ve quested most of Vashj’ir, but I’m taking my time. I’m in no rush to hit 85 and then bore myself. So, I decided to try out Archaeology.

I’m really enjoying it. It’s not extremely exciting by any means, but they did a good job with it. It gets you to see the world and to learn the history and lore in a fun way. Think of it as exciting as fishing to level up, but it’s relaxing. A lot of flying is involved, so you can do something else while you’re playing. Another benefit to archaeology is the chance of a rare item and there are a bunch of them. I got pretty lucky a last week when I saw that the current project I was unlocking was the Fossilized Hatchling, which is adorable. It was my first rare archaeology item, so I got an achievement for it and a new title, Assistant Professor.

But, then I found the item that I haven’t really seen on our server. (continue reading…)
