I had to work the day after Christmas, outside, with a bunch of people either drunk or with hangovers and drunk.

Anything by Frostheim makes the top of my list, not to dis any of the other hard work mind you.. some good points and some new alts were born by reading these pages religiously. Made a bunch of corrections.. learned to have a thicker skin and be a better older player. Now if I could just get my reaction back to that of a 16-19 yr old.. I'd be estactic lol.

To be honest I have a DVR so I can easily record anything that I would want to watch. Generally the only real rule of thumb I have is when my husband and I pick up lunch or dinner, we take a break from wow to watch an episode of Star Trek with our meal.
I wish I could say I am in a large enough guild to have guild runs or raids, but I usually just end up puging when I do want to do something other than dailies or questing on wow (luckily as a healer, I don't usually have a problem finding a group).

I got some pretty nice things, but the one thing I wanted - a Cataclysm - wasn't under my tree.
Sad hunter is sad.

My housemates re-imbursed me for my digital purchase of cataclysm. that was my wow loot for this christmas. Other than that my christmas was a can of cocoa mix, and that's it.
Thats why I've praying to win something in the 12 days drawings. Especially that keyboard posted this morning. I'm very low income and could use new gaming gear to upgrade my warhorse of a machine. Shes a couple years old, but needs an overhaul, or at least a new keyboard for ms typo to be able to finally be able to do a decent keybind.
