The new Song of Ice and Fire app is kind of cool! And free! You can set locations for any city in the world (I use my own hometown, my childhood town, my mother's and sister's current towns, plus major cities like London and Las Vegas), and depending on the time and weather in each place, you get a fitting screenshot and quote from the new HBO ( Read more... )

All you Song of Ice and Fire folks, HBO sent out a "press kit" (which is nothing like any press kit ever sent out before) to a few blogging sites and a couple critics. It looks pretty darned amazing.

I never post about WoW since I seem to do little post-worthy.

Still doing the jousting dailies (zzz) got 2/5 pets, will have third one tomorrow. May work on a mount after that. Or mounts.

Started doing Oracles dailies. Man, I hate them so much. Such annoying quests. Blah.

I made myself a Turbo-charged flying thingie. Not sure if I like it ( Read more... )

RP: I take back all I said about RP on Moon Guard and apply it to just Alliance RP on Moon Guard. :P Yesterday I made a belf character there, and got two scenes that same day and one today!

Spammy Thistle is spammy tonight! But at least this post will be behind a cut to avoid spoilers.

George R.R. Martin, Song of Ice and Fire author, has a LJ! grrm ! Eeee!

Also, I know I'm very behind in replying to comments. Hopefully today I'll get caught up (if not today, then tomorrow for sure). Sorry all!

I keep meaning to sit down and write about this (as well as Hunter PvP in WoW) but I keep not having time for a long, thoughtful post ( Read more... )
