First of all, did you know today was the invention of the first laser? Pretty nifty, if you ask me! Everyone get out your laser pointers and tease a cat. That’s an order!
Anyway… Yesterday was fairly eventful, but not up until around 5 pm! I emailed back and forth with my mom at work all morning, which was nice. I enjoy talking to her. After that, I played Scattergories with Matt’s mom’s friends. We played two games, both of which my team won. Then we ate a delicious corned beef and cabbage dinner. I say delicious, but if there was a better word, I’d use that! I love corned beef and cabbage. I have no idea why. It’s sweet, flavourful, simple… wonderful! After dinner, we had some fruit for dessert. Yum! I love bananas and strawberries. Pineapple, not so much. Then we played a game of Scene It, and I won. I’m seeing a trend - I think I’m good at board games. I told my mom last night that I’d need to make a board game robot to play all the time with me simply because I can’t play alone. But I couldn’t make it too smart or I’d probably start hating board games!
The quote in the title is fitting for me. Do you ever get the feeling that you wasted the whole summer? I have, the past few years. This year will be different for me, though! I’ll go places, do things… I’ll do what I want, even if it means facing some fears to get there. Why waste the summer when most people would kill for the opportunity to do what they want, when they want?
In WoW news, my guild is moving along quite nicely. We’d gotten Kaz’rogal down last week, and Azgalor to 5%. This week was BT week. Tuesday we had our first kill on Naj’entus (Yay for trying new strategies!) and then last night we downed Supremus (1-shot!) and Shade of Akama. Took two tries on Shade because we were a bit… strange. We were still discussing strategy while we ran around killing things and ended up with half of the group not paying attention and dying in the fire. Whoops. Rule #1 of WoW: Don’t stand in the fire! Anyway, we went on to fight Teron Gorefiend, and probably would have killed him on our first try, except someone misheard something and didn’t realize they had the debuff, and ended up dying right IN the raid, so there were constructs everywhere. We were going to attempt again, except someone pulled, twice, while we were rezzing, and then someone managed to live long enough to get the debuff again, and then they died, so their constructs were running all around the Black Temple. Half the raid was rezzed, alive, safe, inside Teron’s room, and the other half was at the entrance from zoning in, so we just gave up for the night since it was late anyway. We had him to 50%, though, so I’m sure we would have gotten him!
