Stand By Me

For ShelaghG

I love my Draenei Death Knight. I'm using this Blood build (one point to go in Unholy). I got it from Talentchic but, oddly enough, that exact build isn't there any longer. I tried the build known as Ghoul Knight, but didn't enjoy having the pet as much as I thought I would. Anyway, Ravenhart is about halfway through level 79 at the moment, and questing through Zul'Drak. I really don't like that zone, but I'm trying to finish off each zone at least once. That way, with another toon, I'll know what I can and can't skip.

I'm also enjoying the new Achievement thingie. I'm quite goal oriented in my playing: I hate farming and prefer to work toward something. Having a goal - finishing a quest or getting an achievement is my cup of tea.

Squeeeee!

I am, as I type this, downloading the final patch for Wrath of the Lich King. I can't wait to create my pink-haired gnome Death Knight.

For the Lulz

The mister and I were in the new 5 Bucks store. I saw a display of flowered necklaces and asked the mister if he wanted to get lei'd. The looks from passerby were priceless.

Yes We Can

I cried when CNN announced for Obama. What an amazing day.

40 minutes in and the goosebumps haven't stopped.

My favourite comment at Metafilter:
How bad did Bush fuck up?

America just chose a black man named Barack Hussein Obama as next president of the United States.

Rosa sat so Martin could walk. Martin walked so Barack could run. Barack is running so our children can fly. -- unknown

I've seen this quote all over the net lately; powerful stuff. And here's an article that really brings it home.

I'm watching Family Feud. The contestants are celebrity lookalikes.
