This Is Probably Not the Post You Were Looking For

… And probably not the post you wanted to see.

By my count, it has been… oh, a lot of hours since I have logged in to the World of Warcraft. Over a week. And I’m not even going through withdrawals.

I have not logged in since Saturday morning (if those 2 minutes count). I have not played since… Thursday? Did I raid Thursday? I cannot even remember. No, I missed that thanks to a couch >.< Then we moved a ping-pong table Friday and it broke on Saturday. This week I even *gasp* didn’t read Ari’s blog for a day. I caught up the next day! But still…

This break has been involuntary, I have been ridiculously busy with real-life stuff and even went out of town for a few days. I’m back now.. in town anyway.

I plan on now taking a voluntary break. To focus more on those real-life things that don’t have to be done right now but should be soon and have been piling up for the last year and not been done. I could write novels on the virtue of procrastination… but I’ll do that some other time.

Gratz on Orange and Lyssi. Finally. =P

I logged in briefly (as in <2 minutes) Saturday morning to confirm my suspicions/fears, and yup you were 80. I hope you slept for a looong time after that because you were up way to late past your bedtimes.

I’m still 78.

And probably will be for awhile.

I don’t particularly enjoy my paladin, I’ve come to realize. Yeah, great thing to realize after so many hours /played and gotten all the way to 78. Well at least I’ve learned it now.

The “rotation” is lame. And this is coming from a former/current/sort-of arcane mage. Having to sit there waiting for cooldowns to come up is lame. And also having to move out of fire. Lame.

I mean, my weapon swings about every 3 seconds… but every 4 seconds I can… swing my weapon! Crusader Strike, why do you have a cooldown? How does this even make sense?

I had put tentative on the guild calendar for tonight’s raid before I left. I am utterly exhausted and wouldn’t mind being asleep before raid time. But I’ve got things to prepare for tomorrow (which I didn’t find out about until today of course). I see on the invites that Sorak, Liyhe, Tel, Tay, and Wica (I think he still has a healy spec) have all accepted. I hope you can get 2 healers out of them. If you need me Ari, I’m just an email away and I will be ready for summons in 5 minutes. If you need me. (phone email btw).

And then I will take a break. How long? No idea. Forever? Hmm… probably not. It just so happens as I’ve gotten into this bleh-burnout mood that my 6 month subscription renewal happened two days ago, so I’m likely to remain for another 6 months. I think another week off would seem sufficient. Maybe two. We shall see.
