Things to do in Providence when your...

Soooooo...a Joyful Mabon to all those who mark the turning of the Wheel of the Year.

But, I'm making this post because a few of you expressed interest in joining me and Spooky in World of Warcraft. And I discovered this morning that I goofed when I set up my account last Saturday. You may recall, I was in the throes of tooth pain and Oxycodon. Instead of choosing an RP server, I chose a PVP server (Anub'arak). And we didn't catch it until this ayem, which might say something about the usefulness of WoW for actual rp. Anyway, despite the fact that my character, Merricat, was LvL 19+, and Spooky's, Syllahr, was 17+, tonight we started we've both started over on an RP server — Cenarian Circle. My new character looks exactly the same, but is named Mithwen, instead of Merricat, as I was in the mood for Sindarin (Mith = "grey" + the suffix wen, "maiden"). Spooky is still Syllahr, and she says I shouldn't be Tolkien's bitch. But I am. Anyway, as I write this, I've made it back up to Lvl. 8 (since 9:00 pm). And that's the server where we'll be, if anyone is looking for us. Apologies for any inconvenience.

I'll make a real post tomorrow.

Pssh, a Sindarin-named WoW character? Why not have done with it all and just play Lord of the Rings Online? Eh? Eh?

Er...if you do, I hear...um....Elendilmir is a lovely server.

Happy belated Equinox. All things being in their place now, let the darkness grow.

Because:

a) As I said, it was only more or less by chance, and in a fit of boredom, that I started WoW.

b) Having done so, and found that I like it well enough, I have now invested in it quite a lot of hours. I never expected to play more than a few hours, at most.

c) I even have a paid account now. So, here I stay.

Backwards up the mossy glen
Turned and trooped the goblin men,
With their shrill repeated cry,
"Come buy, come buy."


Well then there's no hope for you!

Nope. I'm screwed.
