Real life has been hectic, and this poor blog, as usual, has suffered. I’ve spent the last month travelling for work, I’ve got a new job (that I haven’t started yet), I’ve had too many things going on health-wise to mention.
But!
The good news is that my healing hand is better! I am hoping that it was a combination of resting it (I’ve been playing a bit less, no more obsessively gearing all my alts), my new key bindings, and my new mouse (which I love!)
Raid-wise, we’ve been working on heroics. Shannox we downed withing 30 mins of starting, and we’ve had solid attempts at Majordomo (got very close on him) and Rhyolith (STOMP NOW). In the end, we’re concentrating on Beth,and last week we got her to 8% which was encouraging. Just fiddling with the dps balance upstairs downstairs might make the difference now.
Blog-wise, I have a number of posts all sitting in draft, waiting for the time to polish them. This includes a how-to for the Ragnaros finger puppet, a guide for how we do heroic Shannox, and another silly but not craft related post which I’m hoping will be pretty epic when it’s done. It does involve recipes, but beyond that I’m not divulging just yet. I will be blaming it on Epiaa though. Also a new strat for Baleroc, one where I get to build stacks, yay!
In closing, one random picture of our cat. He’s pretty vocal on vent sometimes, but usually he’s fast asleep next to my computer when I’m raiding. Like this:
Aw.




Wow, lots of activity! Grats on the new job! Glad to hear you like the new mouse. And best of all, glad your hand is better!
Glad your hand is better! Look forward to reading the new posts now that you’ve given us some previews
Annnd just to put some pressure on my writing agenda… we downed h-Beth and h-Domo this week too. A weekend of post-queueing approaches!
Thanks for the mouse recommendations, my hand loves you!
Can I please have your old mouse?
NO! I gave it to my priest friend.
( Be on msn more!
And I miss youuuuuuuuu
Edit: who knew you were an incognito triangle?

Hi Cinnders,
your ‘thank you’ totally made my day. I was tired and in a ‘why bother?’ mode and you turned that into smiles. So thank YOU!
I’m glad the write-ups are useful! I’m no expert either, so If I can share how I do these encounters and it helps other druids, then I’m a happy tree
Take care, and drop by and say hi again!
