Nigh Uncrushable

So I haven't blogged in forever. It isn't that I haven't thought of anything to blog about, the same rant keeps coming back to me again and again. But that will probably have to happen on a later post. I have been a little busy with WoW and good old Zasht has taken leaps and bounds in getting ready for the big stuff. I am currently nigh unto uncrushable. If you don't know what that means, don't worry about it, even most WoW playing dorks don't now what it means. Basically it is the ability to either dodge, parry or block a hit by a boss that has the equivalent force of a runaway dump truck. Seems awesome? Yes, yes it is. Here are some pictures of Zasht in my new gear. The only thing I need to be uncrushable is a new shield.

I also got my new sword, the Continuum Blade, which makes me a destructive force of nature. So yeah I'm pretty stoked.

Needless to say I've been busy with my favorite little hobby. It hasnt stopped me from doing other things though. I'm back to writing another cheesy chick story, which will probably end up being my biggest work to date. Can't help it, the cheese flows.

Yep, that was good times.

Shout out to Beej on her Kidney Stone pain and a WoW film I made

Yeah, long title right? So I was stoked to make a WoW film, even though it's like thirty seconds long and super dumb. It all stemmed from a chat I was having with some of my WoW playing co-workers about whether my tank prot pally could go into Scarlett Monastery (a reasonably difficult instance at its level) without my armor on and still kick butt. You'll have to watch the video to see how it turned out. I know, you're on pins and needles right? Well prepare yourself for some great cinema, cuz here it is!

So yeah, I also want to shout out to Beej. She had a kidney stone today and I can feel her pain. Literally, the stent they left in me still hurts! Yeah I would recommend for everyone to steer clear of kidney stones at all costs. I would say they are good times, but that would only be true if experiencing the most excruciating pain I can think of was "good". And its not. For real.

On a completely unrelated topic, welcome to the blogoshpere Jeremy. Nice to see another dude blogging, sort of. Oh yeah, here's another awesome movie of Jakob giving Troy a taste of his own medicine (Troy is a very rough and tumble kid as you will see):

My favorite part is where Troy slams Jakob back. How awesome is that? :)

Peer Pressure and wasting a whole week of PL

Nat's been pressuring me with her overwhelming peer pressure to post another blog. And here I am. So yeah, had a really "awesome" week last week. All kinds of great things happened: turned 30, was too high on pain killers to play WoW cuz the 3D motion was too much for my fragile equilibrium to handle, had my fifth child, oh wait, my fifth kidney stone, wasted 40 hours of precious precious Personal Leave from work being sick. See, awesome, right? Yeah it was. Actually it wasn't all bad. I got to watch Reaper and South Park in the hospital while I was counting down each and every ten minute increment to push the morphine button again. Yeah kidney stones hurt that bad. I was already taking two days off last week to turn 30. Leaving my 20's behind was definitely something to not be at work for. Aww my 20's, those were good days! I remember turning 20 on my mission. We went and saw an opera in Stara Zagora. It was good times. Oh look heres a picture of Stara Zagora! How convenient. I think the funniest thing about this is that if you notice in the corner of the picture it came from a website called PicturesOfBulgaria.com. Wow, someone made a website about that. Boredom. Or lots of film and free time. Someone needs to start playing WoW. Yeah, cuz I was curious I just went to that website and it didn't really have a ton of pictures. Mostly tourist stuff. Weird.

Anyway, just did a ton of web surfing for some reason and now I'm back. Troy is obsessed with my cell phone. He keeps wanting it and his excellent memory helps him remember it even after he takes naps. Kind of weird. He reaches out his hand now when he sees me so I'll give it to him. Which happens sometimes. Yeah right now he is begging for it cuz he just dropped it on the ground and I stole it from him. Kids are great that way.

So my mother-in-law Cheri posted a comment on my last blog that is somewhat related to the previous topic. You'll have to read it, its pretty messed up but reminded me of a genre of manga. It was something like a man and a woman who are both married end up having an affair and then get married later on after divorcing and their respective spouses. Now for the weird part, they both have kids and custody and their kids end up getting a little friendly with each other if you know what I mean, wink wink. Yeah creepy. Don't think I'll be writing anything like that any time soon. Oh and for any interested parties, I can send you some of my work. Don't say I didn't warn you though, its bad. And cheesy.

Well got some WoW to play. The new patch came out exciting. Check this awesome link out too. I laughed and laughed. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/wrath/features/bard/bardclass.xml

Gotta admit, it was the axe that could "go to eleven" that really killed me.
