World of Warcraft,
random crap

I seem to lead the most boring life of them all… seriously, I get up… I go to work… I come home… sometimes I’ll go and workout if my back isn’t screaming in pain at the end of the day and then come home for a few hours before I go to bed. This has been the routine for the past month or so… toss in hockey playoffs and you’ve got my life summed up nice and neatly since mid-April.
This past weekend was no exception… except for the trip up to Overland for dinner just try the place out. And they can keep their restaurant right where it’s at because I know I won’t be frequenting that location again. Food was meh at best… and definitely were understaffed by the time we left. Somehow they didn’t take into consideration the fact that it was Memorial Day weekend and had maybe two servers on duty that night.
But my major accomplishments for the weekend? Somehow it wasn’t working out everyday this weekend. I did workout on Friday and Saturday… but by the time Sunday rolled around my back was in so much pain that it was even pinching a nerve in my leg so it hurt when I walked. But things seem to be a bit better today after taking two days off from the gym.
The major accomplishments for me dealt with Warcraft… *sigh*… I know… fuckin’ gamers!!!! Saturday morning I ran a few Heroic instances for the achievements which was a good thing for me… yesterday morning we ran through Karazhan and blasted through it like it was nothing. And then it came down to me doing a lot of solo work to crank out some major achievements before I called it a day.
First it all started up in Storm Peaks with finishing out the quest for the “The Summit of Storm Peaks” achievement that states I completed 100 quests in that area, which leaves me with Icecrown to complete for the Northrend Loremaster. Along the way I opened up a whole new section that I wasn’t expecting and am now also beginning that reputation grind to Exalted.
As I was finishing that up I was noticing that I was inching closer to “The Seeker” which is 3000 quests in total completed… and these are not piddly little quests of talk to this person… these are kill stuff and collect items quests. Some of them killed me many many times and I was VERY frustrated (Milady can vouch for that one) with certain quests that were acting buggy and would end up killing me.
Anyway… it was off to Netherstorm from the old Burning Crusade campaign to finish off as much of that area as possible before calling it a night but getting my 3000 quests completed. Eventually I hit my goal for the day and noticed I was about 10 quests shy of finishing up Netherstorm… so I just had to finish that stuff up. By 10pm PT I had completed my 120 Netherstorm quests which gave me my Outlands Loremaster achievement.
Slowly I am inching closer to my Loremaster title… I have to complete Icecrown (61 quests to go) and then finish up whatever I can find within the old world continents. Eastern Kingdom is 74 quests shy… and Kalimdor is 50 quests shy. It’s a lot of questing in those areas… but would be one heck of an achievement to have ^_^
and that is my life right now… boring, right?
