The Droid and the Blogsphere

I finally set up some bookmarks on my Droid so that I can keep track of the blogs I frequent the most. I need to add more bookmarks since there are a lot of blogs out there that I like to check out now and again.

I can really see why people got addicted to their iPhones. It really is handy having everything a laptop or netbook would do, but in a much more portable form factor. That and my Hero was a lot cheaper than those ultra small pc’s were selling for just 5 or so years ago.

Now I can Twitter, Facebook, blog, read blogs, respond to blogs and then get back into a novel when I’m done.

Sadly my battery has a hard time keeping up with me, but I blame e-mail for most of that. My Mom was joking with me saying that the only thing my phone doesn’t do is cook dinner. My response was that I could always call out fo pizza delivery.

That’s a good little Droid.

WoW Slacker Status

Last night I merged my Paladin with my main account. It went very smoothly. The only annoying bit was trying to trasfer guild leadership. There’s no button in the UI for it of course. That meant a quick web search for the text commands. Then describing to Mom via chat how to input the text command to transfer the guild back. My Mom is computer savvy though, so she got it right off the bat.

Since the Blizz description noted that it could take a few days to complete the transfer, I hopped on my Rogue Auslander and me and Mom spent the evening trick or treating. Mom had time to catch up with an old guildie and I managed to level my Rogue to 62 and some change.

I love in game holidays. I’ve got to say that I’m glad that I subbed up in time for Hallowed End, though I am sad that I missed Brewfest. To me Brewfest will always be drunkfest. There’s nothing quite like virtual beer. You get to let someone else deal with the side effects while laughing your butt off. Although it would be interesting to see hang overs in a game. “Sorry no heals today the Priest is stuck with a hangover debuff and can’t stop puking.” Now that’s comedy.

Back for More WoW

I re-subbed last night and spent a good bit of time checking on my Hore guild which still exists.
My Mom and I were the only ones online, which is pretty par for the course.
Now I just can’t decide what I want to do. I mean, where do I start.
My 70 something Ret Pally is on the Alliance side in the micro guild I set up there. Though I loved playng her I don’t feel like going back to the Alliance again. Ever. The Undercity is Horde side, so that’s where I’ll stay.
MomsĀ  isn’t too stoked about leaving her mage on the Alliance side, I can’t say that I’ll miss her mount. That elephant thing just got stuck on everything.
Mom does have a few alts on the Horde side so it’ll be fun to see which one she chooses. I’m in the same boat really. I have a low level hunter, paladin, shaman, and druid. I have that 50 something warlock who needs her Fel steed. There’s my priest stuck at the unfortunate level 69 and the Death Knight I so adored (stuck at 75).
All of them are talentless, all of them require funding for something, and some of them could use some serious upgrades.

My name is Creep and I am an alt-aholic.

This time around though I think I want to try a Hunter. I loved my lock with pets and my Death Night was really only fun with my little zombie ally. With the guns and the pets it just might be geeky enough for me to enjoy.

Am I looking to hit the level cap and raid? Hell no. In fact I’m looking forward to totally slacking off in WoW. It’ll be fun chasing down pets, fishing, and just plain goofing off with Mom.
