Updates
New kitty Garp is adjusting nicely, aside from his obsession with watching the water swirl down the toilet. The sound of a flush is enough to send him running out of a dead sleep. I’ll try and get a picture posted as soon as he sits still long enough for one. He loves playing and running far more than I have the energy for, but I do it anyway. He’s a sweet cat, and I’m glad I have him in my life.
The writing is coming along nicely, if not quickly. Death In Common should be coming out in the next few weeks; I’m waiting for notes on my other poem for the second DIC collection, and Barbed Wire Kisses is almost ready to be sent out for some critiques (well the first chapter anyway).
Summer is sort of my hibernation season. As the temperature goes up, my productivity seems to go down. Quite honestly, when the temp goes over 105, I’m pretty useless. Still, I’m trying to get at least 1000 words a day done on the rewrite of BWK.
This will be a laid back weekend. Watching the musical 1776 with my family, gril some burgers and watch some fireworks. Oh, and laundry. Lots of laundry.

He's responding specifically to player concerns about the reporting system, and how it doesn't allow a specific option to report griefers who do things like start an encounter in the Raid Finder and then leave. The OP asserts […]

- WoW Moviewatch: The History of WoWI'm not sure I've ever encountered a comparison of The History of WoW to an on-stage production about cooking meatloaf. So, in terms of that, this video is a new one on me. As soon as you enter that kind of metaphor territory, though, you risk bordering on coming across as bitter and resentful. I think Nervous Orca mostly avoids that issue but I di […]
- Should you play a priest in WoW?If you're just getting started with WoW -- or even if you aren't -- picking the perfect class to play can be a challenge. But the number of class options doesn't mean you need to close your eyes and see where your cursor lands in order to pick the class you're going to play. With a bit of research, you can make an informed decision on whi […]
- The best cloth transmogrification item everToday I present you with the best cloth transmog item ever: Exiled Dabbler's Gloves. What makes these gloves so special? Well, it's that they don't really look like gloves at all. They display more like a pair of bracers, so when paired with many cloth chest pieces they appear as though your character isn't wearing any gloves at all. See […]

- Patch 5.4 PTR: Arena tie-break system revamp with a 1,000% damage buffBlizzard Senior PvP Designer Brian Holinka tweeted over the weekend in response to a player who sent over this image of a buff on his character on the PTR. "The Crowd Chose You!!!" is a buff that, as you can see from the tooltip, gives huge additional damage, as well as preventing that player from taking any damage. The person who captured the shot […]

Glad to know you have Garp and you are adjusting to each other. I’m very tempted to get a kitten.
Thanks Cuss. I think I’d be lost without having an animal around. If you do get one, I might suggest getting an older cat, as they’re harder to adopt out, and the ones that get put to sleep first.
I want a new kitty. Six months is far to long to go without one. Maybe we can visit the animal shelter tomorrow, ad see if any of them take to me like my last three cats did.
