The newest citizen of Azeroth

Tuesday, May 30, 2006 · 4 Comments

Yes, I have joined the legions of the Horde, and have become a hunter of Azeroth.

For those not in the know, I have started playing World of Warcraft. And it is AWESOME!

Firstly I opted to let Manny refer-a-friend me. I get a free 10 days for trying it out, and he gets a free month for recruiting me. Then, I bought the CD-key online, and saved $10 off the retail price for the game, and downloaded the client for free. Infact, I downloaded the client for free twice, on berns computer. And I might even end up doing it again on the desktop.

As far as the game is concerned, the questing system is addicting! Most MMORPG's require mindless dungeon runs, and repititious boss kills to get major EXP. But WOW makes you recieve and turn in quests, so that its never boring.

So far I am a lvl 15 Troll Hunter. My character name is "Noxix" and the server is Darkspear (PVP). I joined mainly because that was Manny's server, but also the story of the game makes PVP pretty necessary (There are non-PVP servers, but those are for wusses).

So yeah, if you have WOW, look me up. And yes, this is why i haven't been on AIM in a while. WOW is ruling my life lol.

First week of summer work

Thursday, May 25, 2006 · No Comments

Well if the first week of work was any indication, its going to be a long and interesting summer.

I had the idea earlier this week to keep a list of case numbers for “interesting” calls. Sort of like a helpdesk hall of fame. That way, we can all look back and say, “Oooooh, i remember this one”

In slightly related news, because I no longer have educational obligations during the summer, I’ve decided that I will be getting into WoW (World of Warcraft). Anyone who wants to “Refer-a-friend” me can do so, so you can get a free month off of me lol.

iPod Overload

Saturday, May 20, 2006 · No Comments

Well it finally happened again.

After converting my entire library to trim 128 kbps AAC files, my iPod was on a well deserved diet, and with that, i could stuff all kinds of music onto it.

But finally, after getting some classic stuff I've been wanting (including the entire Led Zeppelin studio discography), iTunes has just given me the iPod overload message.  So now it's time to watch what my iPod eats I suppose.  So I've started trimming back the albums that i really have no intrest in, or ones that I know suck, but kept them around anyways.

Also I finally got my Van Stone CD in the mail, so you should deffinitly check that out.  It's soon to become my favorite album of all time.

We were very busy going to the different parks, but the crowds were very good.
