My tailoring is 5 levels away from making my Moonshroud Robes (of epic quality). There is a pair of gloves I can make of the same quality but I don't need to now that I have T7 gloves. I've been having a lot of fun with this game. Last night I grouped with a few people from some guild and we did 3 heroics together and a Vault of Archavon raid. We were all on Ventrillo together. They were a fun crowd of people. I have them added to friends and they have me added. If we get more groups going or do more stuff together I might consider leaving my current guild and joining theirs if they will have me.
I am in LOVE with Wrath of the Lich King. And its not just cause its a huge step up from Burning Crusade. I have been doing more Heroics and Raids (minus Naxx so far) then I have ever done in BC. They have toned down the difficulty of Heroics enough to still make them hard, but not so hard that you need crazy gear just to do them. And the two raids I have done, Obsidian Sanctum and Vault of Archavon are short and sweet. I am getting decent gear from all of them. But more importantly, I am having more fun with the game now than I ever had since I first started. I'm having so much fun with WoW right now I don't even want to play console games right now. I am really pleased what Bliiz has done with this expansion.

Had a dream last night that you could remake a character as a different class. That was sorta weird. Remade Jan as a huntard. >.> I tried several RP servers, but I just couldn't get into it. I don't like the "Person walks into the room and sits down." sorta stuff. That would require me to actually be creative. From what I've seen though, Moonguard is one of the largest servers. Tons of people on that. When I come back I'm going to try to get into the grouping/instance stuff. Still won't be for a while though, I can't even get interested in exp parties in FFXI yet.

my new baby undead warlock is 35, almost 36 now. I specced him affliction because for some reason Demonology was boring me and causing me grief (At 70 Kikaro specced full affliction and i LOVE it.) I just ripped apart STV and soloed the entire first half of the zone. Working on getting this guy to 40 asap so I can head over to Tanaris. Woot I love Warlocks!

the 3.1 changes annoy me. I dont look forward to a lot of them. They are destroying warlocks it seems. My baby lock is sitting gathering dust.
Some of the shaman changes are ok. Im hesitant for a couple.
I just havnt played at all this week. I got my Elder title from the Last hoiday event, but this valentines one sucks. I just dont want to participate. And this sucks because if I want the Violet Proto Drake I have to do every single holiday. Perhaps next year.
We have some fun with the raids though. Cleared two wings of Naxxramas. Too bad nothing is dropping for me. I almost have enough badges for my offhand weapon though.
Here is our latest attempt at the first boss in the Military ward. Its kind of a fun fight. two people mind control enemies and bash the boss while the rest of us just wail on him. He has a ton of life too.
here is another video. We all wiped in the first 20 seconds of this boss fight on Heroic mode. Our DK and Priest duoed the boss.

Nice! I've been trying to make videos but when I press my record button for FRAPs it doesn't work. And I don't find out its not working until after a boss fight is finished. I found out the problem though. I need to have FRAPs turned off before I start playing. Then when I am in WoW I ned to Alt-Tab out and turn FRAPs on. THEN I can start recording. Its a bit of a pain in the ass. I had a few Obsidian Sanctum and Vault of Archavon groups IU wanted to record and they were good runs. But they never recorded. XD
I have screens coming soon. Of the new Raylu, her new flying mount and some other shit.
I seriously need to start doing Naxx here. I've put it off for far too long. I might try for it today in a pug.

I highly reccomend going with your guild if possible your first time. Naxx is not a gear check, its a brain check. If you have never been and dont know what is in store, especially as a healer, you will not get very far. I do not look forward to when my priest is Naxx ready. As DPS its a lot easier to handle things than healer. We shall see.

Well my guild is offering. They are doing 10 man on Thursdays and Fridays. I was there for Friday but no one made any mention of doing Naxx so I guess nobody went. Another problem is that my boss wants me working till 6 instead of 5 for this month and my guild usually starts around 5. And I really don't want to putt off Naxx for yet another month. Ugh, stupid work.

I never did like that hairstyle, I dunno, it didn't look right. But I'm extremely picky about MAH HAIR anyways. Nice pics, Norfy. I guess I should upload more FFXI screens myself.

I see nothing wrong with the hairstyle. Its just a pony tail after all. Plain and simple. P.S. Those robes I am wearing. I made those. Took forever to get the skillups for it but it was worth it. Nice stats. And the gloves I have are a lucky Tier 7 drop. I want more Teir 7 goodys.

I don't like the way it looks in the back... I like the shorter ponytail myself. The texture doesn't look like it matches up with the hair... sorta hard to explain.
That's one of the things I didn't like about the new hairstyles they introduced, they looked half-assed. Only a few of them look good, some of the new ones for hume female & dwarven females look good, IMO.

Hmm, I think all of them look fine. Atleast the game HAS the option to change hairstyles which is more than can be said about most MMOs on the market. The one I can't stand is the new Human male one which is based off a male blood elf one. The Dragonball one. I only hate it cause its over used. Almost every single human male has it. But in the end, hair is hair. It doesn't make my character any better. I'm not gonna get passed on invites cause of my hair style. All I need is a Holy spec and a mana pool
