Not much have happened really this last month. I have mostly chilled, done quite a bit of costuming, had what I am pretty sure was food poisoning, worked and so on.
Claire and I are now sharing a room. It is going wonderful so far though we really need to clean (I am planning on doing that + laundery today). we chill, hang out and do random shit which is nice.
In wow news (don't know if anybody cares) I left my guild to start working on one of my own. One consisting of smithies and former smithies. If you play wow and want to join up on this we are on the Madoran Realm, horde side. We do need more signatures to get the guild started, so if you want to join just find Adirian on Madoran or contact me on aim/gmail/twitter. And if you aren't a Smithie (former or not) and still want to play with me, just give me a hollar on there.
The idea behind this guild was two things, mainly it was that I heard over and over again people saying how much they missed the community in wow, or how they just soloed everything and never really talked to anyone. While that is one way to do things, I certainly solo most of my quests, I think it is sad that many people don't find the community in it. In many ways the fact that most of the people in the game are real people and not an equation in a computer is infact what makes this game different. I thought that if we created a guild with people who had something in common besides just sharing a love for the game, we might create an enviroment that encourages this. Since Madoran isn't an rp realm I missed the rp in it so that was also part of me wanting to start a guild.
Things we want to focus on
-Creating a community where our guildies can interact and have fun
-Running instances one or two nights a week (this depends on what our players want/have time for)
-Having an rp night a week, once a week, our characters meet up and talk about their adventures..
-Other help, like help with professions, a guild bank, leveling help etc. (we'll get there when we get there)
Feel free to pass this along to any Smithies/former Smithies you might know who play wow.

So your idea sounds really cool! Especially the meeting once a week to talk about adventures in character. Are you running more instances now, then? I am always interested in hearing about instances and party mechanics, because, especially as a holy priest for my guild back in '06, that was my area.
The great thing about leveling help is that it takes so little effort for, say, a level 40 or higher to help out a newbie. I got solo'd through SM at, like, level 20 as a priest by a level 60 raid-outfitted paladin who was my guild leader and it felt SO AWESOME. Probably why I love SM so much even now. It's also really great for the higher levels to help out lower level people in the same class with their class quests . . . I like the feeling of fraternity or whatever among fellow locks or whatever. : )
