New Guild, published 11th of June, 2009
So, it would seem that I have left Mad World due to scheduling issues, personnel issues, and various other things. I didn't burn any bridges, which is a good thing. I have joined a transfer guild, Concedo Nulli, with some folk that I know from Twitter. I've assumed a main healing role, which is nice and awesome. Kinda need more ranged DPS, Naxx10 with 8 people in melee range on KT is quite stressful. Yet, we pulled it out and sprayed all over KT's face. While it is kind of a backstep in content level, at least it is consistent and I've already gotten more satisfaction than I have gotten in months.
I just got done playing an indie game called Knytt. A quaint side-scrolling platformer, beautiful art direction, very short. Took it down in around an hour. Though, it is worth picking up... since it is free. Just google Knytt.
Applied to a bunch of places, got no real response back. 1 place said it had filled the position, one said they were gonna background check me and 3 others and set up interviews, but no work back from them. Really sucks.

So, I was supposed to go to an Unemployment Appt this morning... sadly, I slept in and am probably suspended from benefits. Though, I have no bills to pay... so I really don't need unemployment. Looking for a job, applied to a bunch of places in preparation for this morning and already received one sort of response from them. Don't know which company it was, but they put me on a shortlist with 3 others and something about a background check/credit report. I am scurred. I really don't want to get a job, but I have to pay for my rampant drug abuse somehow.
Same bosses downed in Ulduar, Iron Council came a bit easier this time, but our OT died once again. Kinda starting to get fed up with it. I'll continue to stick around, thoughts about leaving flowing through my head... knowing me, I will never give up complacence. I don't like to fuck with the Status Quo. My drood is 30 today, trying to level to 80 without purchasing any sort of mount training. The test has begun.
It Begins!, published 29th of May, 2009
Not today, but on Monday. I am going to start to work towards a more healthy lifestyle. Word, that is enough of that.
So, I am the most awesome WoW player ever. Not really, but I like to think so. It helps with the confidence needed to heal and rise through the DPS charts. We haven't started Ulduar this week... kinda pissed, but I can't really expect more from a social guild. It doesn't bother me, because we have finished about half of Ulduar with a half casual group and that is mainly due to scheduling issues with our two tanks. One has a frenetic work schedule and the other has a stable one, but can only play on certain nights throughout the week. So, there is always the chance to have a raiding night on Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Tuesday is not that often, though. I have been working on a durid in the mean time, a bear drood 4 tank. Finally got a new belt to replace the ilvl 200 one that I had been using since my first time in Naxx10. Iron Council went down like a bitch... after a few wipes per week we had tried them. One of our tanks went down, everyone panicked, druid got him back up, then we boned them in the face. Going large->medium->small, Phase 1 and 3 are really easy. It is phase 2 that is the hardest, mainly because we have the mitigation tanks where block is broken (or so I have been told) and our Prot pally tanks some large hits close together and if a healer blinks, he goes down. Ah well.
I have brought back Sichae the druid, she is doing great. Almost level 20, excited about bear forms (not for a month or two, though). Hopefully I will have her up in the 60s-70s by that time and be able to tank some shit. Hopefully I can stick with it and not let her wither and die like the first time.
I am listening to Idaho's #1 Hit Music Channel for some reason. inFamous has been trounced.
