"... I don't know where I'm bound
I don't know where I'm bound
Whistles calling me away
leaving at the break of day
And I don't know where I'm bound..."
First off... today is the Man in Black's 78th birthday (if he was alive, but still!). Happy Birthday Johnny Cash.
I went home nauseous two hours into working. I went to a local grocery, got some chicken soup to eat for lunch and took a nap. Woke up to the sound of my kitty meowing like a crazy cat. It's ~4:00 pm right now and my tummy still hurts. I am pretty relieved I am not raiding tonight so I can just chill and rest. This might change, if my guild needs me, but because of what happened last night, I might just stay away from raiding in Arygos. (Will get back to this in a bit)
Since I am still half-awake and sorta groggy, I am gonna watch Julie and Julia (chick flick, I know, blasphemous!) on my iPod Touch while I gather up some herbs in-game. The movie's about a girl Julie blogging about The Joys of Cooking and Julia Child. Cooking is a joy for me too although I am not a nut like Julie. I am a cook by profession and I can appreciate how much work it takes to create good food. Her main reason in writing a blog is that she wants to able to say she did one major thing for one whole year and stuck with it.
Anyways, my main reason in writing this blog to begin with was for it to be a journal of things I've done in-game and all the shit that I've been through. Well, it's more of a collection of QQs and whining and bitching, but hell I wouldn't be truthful to readers (if existent, that's a bit questionable!) if I were to write any other way. But I never mentioned things I've learned in-game or how I actually play or where I get my info from. But then again, I also don't want this blog to end-up being a strategy guide or a theory-crafting blog. I dunno how to approach this really. But hell, I think Imma stick to this better than I had these few months (/abandoner).
This is the end of my entry for now. I am gonna update the website, make it less drab or something. God help me... or should I say... FOR THE HORDE!!!

/shakin in muh boots
So my guild brought in a new holy priest into the guild. He's pretty well-geared and his raid awareness is good. I have the title of this blog as it is because I am worried that I am going to get replaced, especially after my performance tonight.
I have been semi-inconsistent lately. Some days I do well, some not-so-good. I had fixed my previous problems of having a slow internet (from 800KBPS to about 12MBPS, oh yeah!!!). I had also nixed Grid (fucking piece of shit raidframe!) for Vuhdo (I swear, I wanna marry the guy who programmed this... and it's so sweet he named the addon after his GF's toon... /swoon)... I've fixed most of my problems... now it's all on me.
Anyways, recently (since I got better inet and Vuhdo) I've been doing better on the meters. Not that that's all I look at. I usually close Recount before each pull just so I won't concentrate on that, not to mention reduce the risk of lag! But for a while, it's been bothering me that my HPS had been sub-par, especially in comparison to the gear I have. I think I can do better now. I *SHOULD* do better now.
I don't know what to do right now. I'm geared, I'm gemmed properly (as far as I know). I know my spells well enough. I dunno who to talk to about this really. Maybe it's a priest thing, but we seem like loners of some sort. I never EVER met a priest that I actually talk to, even about non-WoW stuff.
I still feel like an outsider in this guild somewhat though. I mean, I'm always there, always an active participant unlike some of the people in here that only show up for progression nights. But something is missing, something I used to have in my previous guilds that I don't seem to have with this guild. Don't get me wrong. I get along well with most of my guildies. I still cause trouble like making the GM and my raid leaders cry once in a while, but I wouldn't be me if I didn't do that. I dunno. I just have that feeling Imma get shelved, like I did back in Faction of Blood.

Back in Action
Sweet Jesus, it's been months since I had last updated this site. /ashamed. There had been way too many things that happened between October and now, I don't know where to start or even how to explain my absence.
I was overwhelmed by the fact that I was STUCK in such a fail guild, in such a fail server that WoW seemed more like a job than a game. I was forced to switch mains, from Emgalla to Empresse (because they brought in 2 prissy *package deal* holy priests who sucked major balls and caused so much drama than they were worth) then back to Emgalla, only to be criticized later about my "main" switch. After a pretty useless argument about gear with the raid leader (seriously, what self-respecting Holy Pally would let his gearscore obsession come before gearing another healer, especially when the cape he wanted had SPIRIT to begin with!?!), I finally left my old guild. I no longer had any respect for my officers and had been disgusted on how horrible that guild has been, especially with favoritism. They were better off without me, and I of them.
I transferred Emgalla, Ezraelle and Empresse to the Arygos server mid-October and joined Methodical. After I got myself situated (and geared on at least 2 toons), I continued leveling Lycoris, my Druid, and she finally hit 80 on Friday.
That was the Cliff's Note's version of what I have been up to lately. Will update blog when I get the chance again. But til then, I'm gonna be busy raiding with muh new guild!!!
