The Facts of Life

Well now that I’ve gotten started I feel it’s time for a quick post to reveal some brief facts about me.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them all…


Ten Virtual Life Facts

  1. I’ve been playing WoW since launch day.
  2. I’m doing this blog to share my thoughts on WoW, but I’m here to learn too.
  3. My first max level character was a Paladin. Two weeks after hitting 60 I rolled hunter. I haven’t looked back.
  4. I love my guild even though we seem to be suffering a slow death. Something must be done.
  5. I’m love raiding and I hate PvP.
  6. I’m happy with the way I play my hunter, but never satisfied.
  7. I’m ambivalent about achievements except for the Brewmaster and Salty titles. I must have those.
  8. I like fishing.
  9. For me the Auction House is a vending machine, whereas for others it’s an ATM.
  10. I’m no longer brave enough to type /played.

Ten Real Life Facts

  1. I’m an English major turned computer programmer.
  2. I love my job and not because I get every other Friday off (that’s just a bonus).
  3. I’m married. I love my wife even though are relationship seems more like Sith Lord/Apprentice than partners (guess who is the apprentice).
  4. Last month my wife’s company gave her the option to telework one day a week. She chose Friday. Yes, this includes the same Friday that I have off. /sigh.
  5. My wife refers to you as my imaginary friends.
  6. I have no life but my wife does and she needs me to drive her to it.
  7. I have three cats. They came with the wife. If 11 years of scooping cat turds doesn’t say I love you, then I don’t know what does.
  8. When I die I want to come back as one of my wife’s cats.
  9. I own a place on the island of St. Thomas (this sounds waaaay better than it is. Trust me.)
  10. Watching Lost while visiting my place on the island is fun.

…And there you have the facts of life.

    Classic!

    Oh man, this post had me cracking up. I also really liked your Sith Lord/Apprentice analogy, then I realized… wait a second, that’s how I have it as well.

    A lot of other similarities I see here, both in-game and out. I’ll check back to to read some more of your musings.

    Good stuff.
