So my Grammar sucks

My daughter informed me of this, she doesn't buy that the commas are on holiday.

Someone's not getting rubber scorpions in her bed this Halloween.

I see in the future

As a Pandaran I will walk up to the wrong flight master in Gadgetstan and ask for a ride , as I die horribly I'll remember what faction I am on.

Actually I'll do that without a race that can be both sides.

I just wanted a ride ......

yep, I'm a bitch

If it means being assertive and competent.

If you are too tired to play, and you queue for an instance, you should politely excuse your self , drop group, and go get some sleep. It is healthier for you, the rest of the group will be happier and less irritated also.

Of course you could always stay, run ahead pull everything while the tank waits for the healer to drink, beg for recount to be posted ( your DPS will be lower then everyone else, because ret paladins are supposed to use two handers rather then one handers, and while you're at that roll need on the shield but not the two handed sword, because umm .... I dunno you are to tired to think.) and ignore the tank (me) and healers polite requests to behave like part of the group because if you don't finish just one more level 20ish instance before bed, the world will end, ( I am guessing here, I imagine there could be some other situation, like maybe the great pumpkin will withhold all candy from little kids this year if you don't finish SFK before bed, and we just don't know about it, or your super smart but amoral psychic plush rabbit has plans to unleash a zombie virus on the world, using kittens as carriers, if you don't let him watch you play just a little more, or is that just me?) and oh, stand in any bad on the floor while you're at it.

You could also queue as a tank, sword , shield running ahead ignoring healers mana it seems logical. You'd fit into the annoying PuG tanks club. ( This guy came up to me one night in Silvermoon's murder row " Hey babe, I see you are speced protection...." to tell me about it, they have a lacquered card, and secret meetings, where they eat baby murlocs while discussing whether tanking drunk, or sober so you can coherently type insults is better, and what is the best line for hitting on healers. They do other stuff, but it's just to disturbing to mention. I opted out, because I like happy mana filled healers that get to loot, and moving at a not slow but not racing speed, and baby murlocs are cute.)

I asked the healer to stop healing you. You died. (you also stood in pistol barrage)

You called me a bitch, but lady Sylvanas is a bitch (according to Garrosh, who I kinda don't like) and she's really badass and so I'm in good company.

/roar

ETA commas , most are back from holiday, a few may have jetlag and placed themselves badly, some just stayed away, the rest are making me watch a slideshow of their holiday snaps.

Really kinda disturbing...

I like collecting vanity pets. they travel with me I talk to them when I'm soloing I pat their little heads, hug them, and cuddle them (the ones that would be appropriate with). I would not have them fight each other ,well I probably will if it means more pets, but I'll feel bad , maybe just the oozeling, the creepy crate, and geode or mechanical pets or that skull, I already call him gastly. I do have a Pokemon team I based on my wow vanity pets gastly(ghostly skull), caranvine(sinister squashling) , mightenya(worg pup), tynamo (mana wyrmling_..... umm, have I ever mentioned I love Pokemon, and often pretend to be my Pokemon character playing WoW , but still.....

Argent squire fighting Wolvar pup or winters helper, that is just wrong, and although I call my Siamese cat meowth, I just won't feel right to pit him against some creepy crate.

It just seems like a rather odd thing to add To WoW.

Is there a point to this, I dunno.... but my 24 hours have passed and Pokemon Dream World is open for me now So you know where I'll be for the next hour....

Me tanking

I heal mostly , I've dabbled in DPS but now my troll druid is tanking actually she leveled tanking (I'm almost 70! :O ). Tanking is an odd choice for me though I'm not a leader I'm painfully shy I'm timid I'm just not a bossypants like most tanks I have known, so no speed runs I like to look at a pull and think about it for a moment decide the best strategy then pull. I'm an ok tank, at least I think I'm not horribad awful scary bad and my son who usually heals me says I'm consistently better then most tanks he's met, but since I am the one in control of treats and various other stuff he may be trying to be nice (to him if you're reading this I know you are usually brutally honest I was joking.).

But...

Sometimes when I tank it starts like this, I look at the mobs feel secure that all my keybinds are in the right place and my hand is on the keyboard ( I'm still learning how to mouse turn and use keybinds) in the right spot and ready then I pull with fairy fire, demoralizing roar and.... then all hell breaks loose and I'm thinking AHHH! the mage just fireblasted a different target the hunter shot something from an entirely different group of mobs we have twice the pull I intended, hit challenging roar AHHH!! AHHHH! growl, now the mages target is under control change to the hunters maul swipe whatever get that one's aggro oh hell, the mage is hitting another mob where the hell did that come from AHHHH! another group!!!!! growl, swipe, mangle, maul, roar whatever hit what's not on cooldown I hope I can keep aggro on all of these, things start to wind down and mobs die, for the most part I hold aggro no one dies but Arrghhh! that was complete chaos, why did I think I could do this pant, pant, pant! Does anyone else feel like that or is it just me? Other tanks seem so calm.

Then there are pulls that go like this LOS the caster mobs to the right spot the DPS all target my target no random mobs running around I rotate through targets use my tools and it's calm and perfect I always have aggro. Why did I ever thing this was hard.

It seems like a PUG is all the first kind pull or the second kind and I have no idea if I'm any good or why it's either easy or super stressful hard.

I don't actually like writing.

This blog gets ignored a lot, I don't really like writing. I like the concept of it, it's a great way to communicate, but typing or putting pencil to paper, that part is difficult. I have stuff to say and a family that will mostly listen to my thoughts on WoW, and in the past a guild that would enjoy my scrambled slowly typed out thoughts( I type with my right hand , letting my left hand get involved just leads to random letters and such added to things). It's one thing I lost after the brain injury, before that I kept notebooks full of stories and could type very well, and kept a lot of notes in school, but after the injury I just couldn't, the pattern of how words go on paper or in type was just gone. The rules of written word were forgotten, with a few remenants here and there, so I have to relearn it, or did or still am. The solution to keeping or getting back the skills is to just write obviously, keep in practice, so I started a blog, I intend to write more and have a fair number of ideas for posts but writing something takes me a while.
