Howdy WoW Readers!

I experienced a strange set of emotions this weekend.  Some of you are not aware of the fact that Catianna has been holding down the fort in our guild,unbreakable.  Our GM Gwar has been gone for a couple of months, so being the good person I am with the Rank of WarMaster, which is assistant GM, I kinda stood up and took control of the guild while he was gone.  This seemed like an honor to me, the few times I talked with him, I would let him know I was holding down the fort, and he seemed fine with that.

Well, he came back this weekend   I was ever so glad to see him come back to us!  We all welcomed him back, and let him know how happy we were to have him back.

So, I get ahead of myself here.  Over the last two weeks or so, I have been debating with myself whether or not I wanted to take Cat out of unbreakable, and try to start a guild on my own, and be a sister guild to unbreakable.  So, after Gwar coming back on Sunday.  I told myself that I was going to try and talk to Gwar the next time he logged on.  Monday night, Gwar logged in, and I proceeded to let him know what I wanted to do.

I told him that I have enjoyed standing in over the last couple of months, and that I was considering taking Cat out of the guild and creating a sister guild to unbreakable.  He asked me why I would leave?  I said, well I wanted to start a guild with Cat.  He then asked me why I didn’t jsut take over unbreakable?  I told him that it was his guild and that I didn’t want to take his guild from him.

He then passed leadership to me.  I told him no!  He didn’t take no for an answer.  Well after mucha ado from the guildies, I am still in a lot of shock and awe.  The guildies over the past month or so, have started to ‘lovingly’ call me Guild Mom.  So, I am now the Guild Mom of unbreakable.  I am very willing to give it back to Gwar at any point in time that he wants it back.

I have some doubts, especially after he pulled one of his alts out of the guild last night.  I never wanted to take anything from anyone.  I just wanted to branch out and try and do something different.

Only time will tell as to what will become of Cat and unbreakable.  Hopefully it waill all turn out well, and I didn’t lose a good friend and a great player.

We shall see….

I am sitting there on the computer last night, finishing up the Check Your Head acheivement for the Hallowed Be thy Name Acheivement and Title, when this thought comes over me…

I am in Durotar, and Orgimmar is just North of me, what if I try to sneak in and get my Acheivement for The Fishing Diplomat? What harm could possibly come to me, by running through the middle of Orgimmar in the middle of Hallow’s End? I mean the Battle for Wintergraps was only 20 minutes away, surely all the Horder that could be, would be there…Right?

So, I decide to tak the back way in. I have a rogue with me, scouting the way, to let me know what Horde is there and to show me the way to the Prime Fishing area in Orgimmar. I run in, and get chased by a few NPC’s, shake them off, and I am doing pretty okay…until I get lost. Oh Noes!! I ran right smack dab through the middle of about 15 Horde Players O.o !! Oh My Goodness!! So, I try to high tail it as fast as I can..and die. I go back, rez, and die again. Then I suffer ressurection sickness, and go back in through the back door, and run all the way to the area I need to fish, and get mobbed by like 10 Horde, but I see my goal in sight!! So, I wisp my way back to the fishing hole, and see the level 80 Horde Tauren sitting there on the dock fishing, and a level 15 Troll on the dock fishing. My Rogue friend is trying to cause subtle diversions, and distract them enough for me to get over to the waterfall behind the rocks. I finally jsut say, “Screw it!” Rez, and run. I made it! I sat there and fished for an hour, got my acheivement on the first fish I caught, but figured I might as well enjoy all the hard work I put into it, and fish for an hour.

Now, all I have to do, is go back and catch Old Crafty >.< I am not really looking forward to that one *sigh*

Happy WoWing ya’ll!!

Howdy guys and gals!!

Been an okay week.  I am just sitting around here, waiting for the weekend to come,  so I can go to my Second Cousin’s baby shower, and it puts me one week closer to Halloween!!  Yeeee   I love this time of year!  The weather starts to get cooler, the trees try to change color and be all autumn-like, but usually they just fail at it…LOL  the only thing I don’t really like about it, is I can’t really wear my flip flops anymore   it’s a bit to cool for my ittie bittie tootsie toes.  So, I throw on my tennis shoes and hoof it around in them.  It does give me a chance to pull out my hoodies though

Other than that, my son is passing all his classes so far, YAY!!  My daughter is trying out for choir today, hope she gets it!  I am just really kinda trying to just take it easy.  I am putting men on the back burner of my life.  I realized that I have other things that are more important than having that kind of companion in my life.  I have kids and my family I need to focus on more. 

With that being said, I am off to fill everyone in on my WoW adventures!!

Ya’ll have a great day!!

Let’s wander down a path and enter into the mind of me…

I am one who loves unconditionally, and sometimes that interferes with the rest of my life.  I am one who understands her wants and needs, but can’t fulfill them.  I am one who is looking for more, and yet only wants less.  I have desires, they are hard to fulfill…I have dreams, they are unreachable.  I have what I have because I work hard and play hard.  I only want more…because everyone else has more?  I want someone in my life…this is true.  I am not willing to sacrifice 110% of my time for someone else right now though.  I have kids that demand at least 50% of my time.  I have family that demands at least another 10% of my time.  I have work that demands quite a bit of my time as well…Probably close to 30% of my time…So..that leaves 10% of my time I can dedicate to someone else…currently.  I have thought about this all day.  I want a relationship with someone…but how do I do that when…I don’t have time for them?  It’s not fair to them..or me…This breaks my heart to break this down and look at it.  Maybe he was right…I should just give up on dating…what with all the harbored feelings I have and with the fact that I don’t have time for anyone else in my life…

I will grow old…lonely and watching my grandkids…I guess that is what I am meant for…

What do I really want anyways?  I say I want a relationship…right?  So, what does this mean…and why do I really want one…if all it is going to do is cause heartbreak?  That is the way they always end…Broken and hurt and painful.  Why do we go through all the hell and turmoil?  Because we need someone to love?  Because we want that warm and fuzzy feeling when we kiss someone and know that they are meant for you?  Because, it is always told that the good guy always wins, and the girl in the story always gets her prince….

Fairytales and pish posh….that is what we grow up on…. Oh yeah, Cinderella got her prince and the kingdom..so did Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty…and you kiss a frog, and get your prince…and I could go on…  It’s amazing how we walk through life believing that ‘someday my prince will come’, and in the end you don’t get your prince…

I don’t want a prince…I just want a man who understands…I am shy and slow to warm up to him.  I am actually quite needy…lol…  I want someone who loves me inside and out..I have many faults and broken parts…LMAO…  I want someone who I don’t have to ask for flowers or some special card to brighten my day…he will just know.  I want someone who understands..I don’t like to be smothered….but I like attention.  I want a man who understands…I have kids..and they require a lot of my time…  I want a man who knows its not all about him…

Is that really to much to ask?  Apparently it is….

I don’t know anymore…I want to be the girl that gets the guy at the end of the story…and lives happily ever after…  I don’t want to be broken into pieces and left alone….

I think I have thoroughly just threw myself into a self induced flump zone….Oh well…

I will see you guys and gals on the flip side…

Wait it out till the light
Take a breathe, say good night
But don’t ever go away

Wait around to find the time
Only you can take what’s mine
But don’t ever go away

I’ll be waiting….I need to let it go

Fade it out into the light
All these years we never get it right
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go

No more reasons to deny
That I believed that you were mine
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it…..

A chance to change or stay the same
One night without the blame
That don’t ever go away

Only you can make it right
To walk away and have no fight
But don’t ever go away

I’ll be waiting…I need to let it go

Fade it out into the light
All these years we never get it right
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go

No more reasons to deny
That I believed that you were mine
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go

Fade it out into the light
All these years we never get it right
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it…go

Fade it out into the light
All these years we never get it right
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go

No more reasons to deny
That I believed that you were mine
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go
go
go
let it go

I need to let it go
I need to let it go
I need to let it go

I wish you’d let me go…

I feel insane
Every single time I’m asked to compromise
‘Cause I’m afraid and stuck in my ways
And that’s the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By the look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I’m not insane, I’m not insane
I’m not insane, I’m not… not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it’s almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it’s almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart from the things I’ve done to you
It’s hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but deep inside I’m not insane

I’m not insane, I’m not insane
I’m not insane, I’m not… not insane

(Mother)

Come back to me it’s almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it’s almost easy
(You’ll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it’s almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again it’s almost easy

Now that I’ve lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I’ve tried to hold on as you’ve slowly slipped away
I’m losing the fight, I’ve treated you so wrong now let me make it right
(Make it alright)

I’m not insane, I’m not insane
(Ha ha ha ha ha)
I’m not insane, I’m not… Not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it’s almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it’s almost easy
(You’ll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it’s almost easy
(But still you fall)
Come back again it’s almost easy

Yesterday was a big dungeon/RAIDing day for me.  I helped out a few of the guildies that were trying to get to level 80 and only had a few bars left, run some of the regular Northrend Dungeons.  We ran Utgarde Pinnacle , then we went over and ran Halls of Lightning and then ran Halls of Stone. After taking a bit of a break I got with a group and we ran the Heroic Daily which was The Nexus . Of course I had to run the Direbrew Quest looking for that mount . After all this was said and done…I got the idea..why not try Blackwing Lair? So, I rounded up as many guildies as I could and we went in and stomped the instance. It was a lot of fun. I got The Head of Nefarian and promptly hung it in Stormwind!! It was a great run! Below is a screen shots of a few of us with the Head of Nefarian hanging in Stormwind

Thanks for reading

Well….

In the world of Cat and Astroid…our wedding plans have been put on hold.  Why?  Well, a number of reasons… I had a real life issue this past weekend that caused me to reschedule the wedding, so I moved it to the 10th.  Well, the best man Dragonsys, is unable to make it that day, so, we are going to hold off.  My GM Gwar is out on leave at the current moment and he was supposed to give me away.  So, I am going to wait for him to come back, then reschedule the wedding accordingly

So, not all hope is lost

There will still be a wedding, hopefully with video, and I will post it up here on the site.

Ya’ll have fun and Happy WoWing!

Wow…it was a really good weekend

I got my truck all cleaned and detailed Friday evening and Saturday morning…It’s a really good way to work off some nervous energy…take it down to the car wash and wash it up…then bring it home..dry it off.. quick detail it..do the wheels and windows..and she looks fantastic…then wait an hour…and it rains…LOL 

I had a great time Saturday night as well.  I had a date with a really sweet and funny guy.  We went to a couple of places I have never been…The Library Bar in downtown…the Fox and the Hound in downtown and then we trucked over to one of my old haunts and played some pool.  We had a great time

Today I slept til noon O.o, then I got on WoW and helped some of the lower level guildies try and get levelled up, and I ended the night on a good note…with a run through Blackwing Lair   I will post something about that over on my Kitty’s WoW page here tomorrow sometime

I really hope everyone had a great weekend

Hugs and Kisses,

Have I told you that I hate the waiting game?

It’s been a week since Howie thumped into my life at the library, and I haven’t seen or heard from him.  Every time I thought about going out to the club, this little voice in the back of my head would whisper Howie’s name, and I would stay home.  Here I sat again, at the library, same microfiche viewer.  I had on my comfy baggy jeans, and a sweat shirt, Fall was coming in, and it was getting cooler outside.  Is it sad that you get to the Library at ten in the morning when the doors are just opening up, in hopes of running into someone you shared a pizza with?  I sat there, looking at the same microfiche, and not seeing it.  I glanced at my watch, and it was getting close to lunch time.  I started packing up my stuff to go grab a bite to eat at the deli across the street.  I pushed my chair in and turned right into Howie.

“Oh, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to….” The words stopped.  There he was, smiling at me.

“I thought I might catch you here.  Wanna grab a bite to eat?”  He asked softly.

“Sure, I was about to walk over to the deli across the street.”  He motioned for me to head for the doors of the library, and then held the door open for me.

We walked down to the cross walk on the corner of Main and First, and crossed the street, he reached down and casually took my hand.  We sat in a booth by the window, and I ordered a BLT with cheese and Avocado, he ordered a Roast beef on rye.  We both had a coke to drink.  As we ate, we chatted, he asked about my week, and I asked about his.  I watched the people walk by, and saw a few leaves start to fall.

“Beth?  I have a question for you.”  His voice brought me back from my daydream.

“Yes, sir?” I smiled at him.

“I was wondering, if I could take you to dinner tomorrow night and then maybe a movie or something?”  He actually looked like he blushed.

I smiled up at him, ” I would love to.”

We did the ceremonial swapping of cell numbers, and I gave him my address.  He walked me back to the library, and leaned in and gave me a kiss on the check.  ” I will pick you up at six o’clock.”  He smiled at me, and then walked off into the Autumn breeze.  I practically skipped down to the parking garage.  Got into the car and drove home singing a new tune.

(To Be Continued)
