I hope everybody's weekend went well. How did everybody do on their goals? I got my dailies done on the priest every day. I did not get into any dungeons or raids, though. I did get my DK's mining up to 225 and blacksmithing up to 250 or so. I am trying to get him up to 300 in both before heading to Outland.

WOW: Feeling less than wonderful, I just wasn't up to Outland yet again. I had fun leveling various Horde alts through new zones and roles.

The good: Quests like Halo Drop were a welcome contrast to the old Outland grind.

The bad: Killing that blasted mechanical chicken with a level 7 rogue (pre Ambush).

The ugly: That long quest chain with the blue dragons in Azshara was almost enough to make me do Outlands just to make the headache stop. I loath hop, skip and jump mini games, I've hated them since Doom. I know they're nostalgic for some people, but I wish the devs wouldn't make them part of a lengthy chain one can't easily skip.

Bonus! Despite the horrible state of the AH, I got lucky enough to 1) get the mechanical squirrel schematic; 2) get the mats to make a couple of the boxes, and 3) profit!

RL: The sleep disorder did not play well with me. Option B is going to have to be getting something better than a sauce pan for making real coffee. Option C, going orc and breaking out the crystalline doomhammer on people for committing RL acts that make PUGs look smart is tempting but appears to be contraindicated as China does not appear to acknowledge the "your Honor, he just needed kill'n" defense.

Once again, I forgot to post goals. :(

Once again, I did not get to raid current content because we can't get enough people for our group to replace those that left the guild and/or server.

I did get to go into Ulduar 25 for a bit of achievement gathering on an alt but the group failed on a couple of them so we'll be heading back next weekend (assuming on getting enough people).

I spent almost all of my free time running BC instances on various characters for set look alike gear and some Dungeon set 3 stuff as well. I'm up to 7/8 of the red Lawbringer set on my Paladin and 4/8 on the purple Judgement set. I have about half of the green Dragonstalker set for my Shaman so far. I'm less far along on some of my other efforts but I have been having fun so that's what matters. I'm also gathering up some of the green gear 'sets' that look really good.

I did manage to do my Firelands dailies on my main every day but I have been totally skipping them on alts. I'll get back to that when the mood hits me again, I guess.

RL:
Friday night wine & snacks night and continue watching second season of Damages. Nothing planned for Saturday so hopefully out for a walk/hike/bike ride. Sunday visiting my Mom after church and probably out to lunch with her. Might squeeze some yard work in as well.
Friday night as planned, Saturday morning bike ride and we stopped at Starbucks on way back. Evening with neighbours over for dinner and to share a bottle of Banyuls we brought back from France. Sunday morning with my Mom *at* church, then back to her house for lunch until late afternoon, longer than expected but still a wonderful visit.

WoW:
Same as last few weeks, still working on fishing/cooking dailies and professions for various 79+ Alliance toons, and their Classic Alliance city rep. My 79 shaman & rogue are in Cata greens and will continue in Northrend past 80, while my 7 other 81+ toons will continue in Cata zones.
Only had a bit of time to get into WoW, so mostly just working a bit on 79 shaman & rogue. Shaman finally maxed out her inscription, and she was chasing down some skipped quests in Borean Tundra. Rogue got her Gnomeregan rep to Exalted in StoneTalon, Thousand Needles & Tanaris. Took my 85 druid back through Twilight Highlands to pick up some skipped quests and skin some leather for rogue's leatherworking. More like administrative work this weekend rather than exploring new stuff, but still enjoyable.

I don't remember having goals.

Nonetheless I started a enhancement shammy and got my warrior to 70. I've got enough to get 280% flying now, but I just have to decide whether or not I want to spend that much gold on a character that makes all of its money via the AH. We'll see though, gold seems to come pretty easy for her.

Well, thanks to a seemingly stable internet connection(*crosses fingers*) and a good friend getting back into the game, I've renewed my subscription. For this weekend's goals, I plan to check out those new dailies and start leveling my paladin(so she will be high enough level to easily start solo farming some sweet sweet purple Judgment).
I accomplished a fair amount, actually.

-Paladin hit level 81.
-DK hit exalted with Wildhammer Clan, acquired sweet new tank boots.
-DK and Mage both did Emo Thrall questline and acquired sexy new cloaks.
-Mage began Firelands dailies.
-Finally gave someone a lift via the Mage's dragon form(Vial thingy).

Wow - nothing really planned here due to RL commitments

RL - heading out to the farm for the vegetable harvest, potatoes, beets, hopefully corn peas and beans
- maybe buy some more raspberries for canning, though to do that I need to buy more rings and lids... that collection didn't keep up with the jars I found at various yard sales :)

Have fun all and keep safe.


WoW- Accomplished ALL my stated goals (read as nothing)

RL - harvested a good selection of potatoes, beets, peas and beans. Did buy more rings and lids for canning, looking into re-usable lids for further canning endeavors.
RL - turned into one big headache I didn't get TO the farm til almost Midnight friday night, spent 2 days there working on it and came back got in at midnight Sunday night... to get up at 530 for todays course... and tomorrows course is the same yet its 130 in the morning and i'm here finishing up course homework.
At least the rest of the week should give me some wow time.
