Gah

I hate when I forget about a blog or anything else I have made :(

Bernie Mac died this Morning *sadface*

Comedian Bernie Mac Dies at 50

Bernie Mac, who for the past 30 years made the public laugh thanks to an over-sized comic persona as captured on the small and large screen as well as on stages small and large, died Saturday morning.

I can has Baby pics

Sorry for the absence.

It's been a hectic couple of months, our new baby was born on July 11, 2008. We named her Lilith Paige. (Yeah I won the name battle yay!) We are still trying to get my oldest daughter used to the fact she has a sister, but at 1 year 2 months old it's a bit hard.

On the Warcraft front of course due to all of this I haven't been playing very much. I'm super excited about possibly getting a beta invite. I really want to test out the Death Knights because it sounds like the kind of hybrid character that I will really enjoy.

I'm hoping to get a few more of my characters to 70 before WotLK comes out namely my druid and my warrior. My warrior is sitting a 25 alliance side, but I also have a undead warrior as well, unsure of which I should level its hard to make up my mind sometimes.

Also trying to juggle my console game addiction, I recently picked up Lost Oddyessy. What an amazing game, I haven't gotten very far because I want to be able to give it the attention it deserves.

Whoa Time Flys

Well it's been like a month since I posted not very good when you want people to continue reading what you are posting.. Sorry everyone.

Things have gotten super hectic at home, the new baby is due July 17th, my first daughter Piper is walking, talking and generally being a little hellion, and I've started playing Wow again. I knew my stint in COH wouldn't last too long.

PVP is what I've been doing mostly as I can jump in do games for as long as I want and hop off the PC when I need to do things around the house. I suprised myself and got enough honor for my Helm yesterday on my mage. Which is a very big improvement.

More later time to get out of this place and head home

The dreaded Pre Expansion Boredom.

So I've only been playing enough lately to do my daily quests then log off. Can't really bring myself to do much of anything since the expansion will be coming out in months and nullify any work I would put into raiding at this point. I remeber when BC came out and upon entering outlands I started replacing my Grand Marshal and Tier 2/3 gear and a very fast rate. Considering all the hours I put into raiding and PVPing to get both it was a bit disheartening.

I have also reactivated my City of Heroes account, which while very fun, can get very boring and repetative even worse so that daily quests. The instances all look VERY similar and they all have basically the same thing, go in arrest the bad guys and find loot 1 2 or 3. The graphics are still very eye catching and I can make characters for hours their character creator is bar none the best in ANY game.]]

Hopefully I can come back in a week or so and pick up one of my alts and get back into the game. Probably either my warrior or druid will be getting leveled hard core soon.

Yay! The birthday party was a sucess.

Tuesday was my daughter's first birthday. We had a cookout/birthday party at Mcneely Lake. I cooked for everyone. Was the first time I've used a grill since I was a little kid helping dad cook. Apparently I can cook no matter what the tools involved everything came out wonderfully. Piper got a bit of a fever towards the end, she has some teeth coming in so it's nothing serious thankfully. She absolutely loves her radio flyer sports coupe. Truely picked it out and it's honestly amazing to see the smile on both of their faces when they are outside.

I haven't gotten to play Wow in a few days, I picked up GTA 4 and have been playing that during my spare time. So far the game is crazy very detailed, soooo many things to do. I really do need to play Wow more so I can get my flying mount and the PVP off items that are going to a rating requirement.

UI Spotlight: PSY UI

Well I was trolling around the boards over at Wowace.com this morning and ran across this UI posted by Trulymad.. It's alot like many other UI's over the years but it is very well done, and the placement of the unitframes is a bit different. The textures and fonts all flow well together and I am just in love with the overall Ui.

Gear Advancement

Now that I am exalted with SSO, I'm looking into upgrading my gear while still farming gold for my epic flying mount. So looks like I will be doing some honor grinding now as well when Im not doing dailies. It's the easiest route to upgrades and will help once I decide to start raiding again.

So here's the cost break down for the pieces.
Elemental Honor Points gear
I should probably pick up the off set pieces first as Blizzard is adding a arena
rating to some of the off set pieces.

The other difficult decision here is do I want to do Staff or Main hand/Shield. While the staff looks very cool, I just picked up the SSO shield, that coupled with the gladiator's gavel would be a very nice upgrade.

IRON MAN!!!!

If you have not seen Iron Man yet be sure to do so as soon as you are able. It is the BEST super hero movie ever done to date, Yes including Spiderman you fanbois.

I won't post any spoilers etc here, you must go see it for yourself. RDJ is absolutely amazing as Tony Stark.
