Last night, Spooky and I canceled our WoW accounts and uninstalled the game from our computers (my iMac, her laptop). So, as I said last night on Twitter, the end of an error, September 2008 to May 2011. Shaharrazad and Suraa, disgusted with Garrosh Hellscream and despairing that Azeroth and the Horde will ever get its shit together and stomp the ( Read more... )

Suraa plans to fish. Shahrrazad plans to torture small animals, then raise them from the dead to do her bidding.

"And make our garden grow . . ."

Gods, kittens. Polly Jean Harvey is hot.

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

It's, like, a supernatural hotness.

Perfect. Now, I need to make a Daemon Lover mix. Why have I never done that?

Only a fool would disagree. Some things, as the Founding fathers said, are self-evident truths. Gods, now I have to imagine Ben Franklin and PJ getting it on.

Now I have to imagine her as some kind of storm-wrack muse, full of electricity. I can live with that, actually.

Ah, there's the context for last night's triumphant declaration that you were "no longer in Azeroth". Well, may they have peace and plenty of little skittering creatures to call their own. They are a pretty duo.

Meanwhile, Celinn is about 50% through lvl 35 after some quickish questing this morning.

...resurrecting the title Blood Oranges for the "werepire" novel/s

Hmm. I liked Adapted Dark, if only because it very much sounded like a ParaRom title. Unless, of course, you're switching oranges for apples.

It was a bittersweet parting.

Not bad.

I have suspended my wow accounts. It's been in the making for some time. Because of time. Time I don't have. Therefore it's wasted resources. My account is paid through August. So I will eventually get my farewell screenshot. Carasee will likely stay in Winterspring. She has an affinity to the many cats and witchy presence there. My kids' accounts not so lucky. They only have through the end of the month. But good weather is here. They should be OUTSIDE.

Shaharrazad had her eye of the Howling Fjord even before Garrosh's rise the power.

Claiming I don't have a Polly Jean crush would be like saying I Don't fancy Chiana: utter bullshit. I HAVE to play Let England Shake, right now.

Fucking yeah! Had to settle for "A Man A Woman Walked By" (I don't keep enough good music round the boyfriend's flat)but what the hell; it's still Peej. oh, that Dorset accent.
