Vitriol Espresso "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I'll kill you all." General James Mattis

In the last week or so WoW has gone swimmingly well. Almost too good. My cow is 75 and almost halfway to 76. The quests have gotten a little more convoluted the more time has gone by, but on the whole they're not too bad. The new smaller guild is full of people with a good sense of humor and a bit of experience. Although the happy bro is causing all kinds of tension, it's not of a horrible nature. The old guild is split into 4 parts now. Still not convinced I'll be ultimately happy where I am, but it's better than not being able to speak or join in because of the exclusive cliques. It's also a bit hard to believe that Exodus is pulling in people they have previously treated like shit. Why they would recruit a fellow cow whom they lambasted over some very large verbal fires is beyond me. Suffice it to say, the game has become underhanded again. Suddenly I find myself looking for ulterior motives from just about everyone who takes an interest in my in-game abilities or even my strange personality. People who want to be my friend are viewed with a jaundiced eye, so to speak. Maybe I should adopt the 'I don't care' standpoint that so many others seem to like. There is only 4 people exempt from this viewpoint and I would hope that they know who they are.

So maybe there should be a new plan when dealing with Warcraft for a while. I've been playing a 'friends first' game, but maybe I should adjust to a 'certain persons and myself first' sort of game instead. Seems to be the social M.O. Either way I'm getting the cow to 80 so I can settle in and raise a solid solo master of a DK.

EVE is getting restarted soon. Oh yes. Miner Animus needs to get back to the ore. I want a Hulk now (no thanks to Ghosty...fucker) and with the training that my last account had it shouldn't be THAT much longer to get one. ARRRGH, for another 15 bucks a month. FFXI is done, Charis chopped off 5 for the extra port, and mom's helping to pay for my cable TV. Now to pay up the CC a bit and I can get going again. At least until it gets boring. But if you think about it, changing things up a little with WoW is a VERY good thing. And taking off a night a week for other things will make life golden again.

One would hope.
