Nothin' Doin'

This is what I've been up to lately.

Basically finishing up achievements and doing a lot of PVP. You know its the end of an expansion when my guild starts hitting the PVP hard. I enjoy it and it's fun to play with others. It's unfortunate that most of my guildies don't seem to get into it until the end of an expansion like this, but I take advantage of it when I can.


I am working on one last achievement from Firelands Ready for Raiding II. I have one more of these guys to kill and it seems like he's never up when I look for him.

I'm working on the rares for both Bloody Rare and Frostbitten. I have finished the majority of them, but am having problems with the hunter pet ones such as Loque'nahak. He is apparently very popular ;).
I have a guildie that has spurred me into searching for the rare mounts in the various raids and instances, but I have not yet motivated myself to really get into this one and hit the instances every day. 
I am also finally doing Archeology. Yes indeed. It seems to be something to do while looking for the rares and it works, especially since I'm in Outlands with it at the moment, and I have no gathering professions on my main. At least I feel like I'm accomplishing more at one time while flying around.

On the other side I am playing Diablo3. Like a nub I might add. I have only dabbled in Diablo before so it is new to me. It's fun and different. I enjoy the choice of spells and abilities. It makes your character quite customizable. I have found I can use abilities that are more in tune with my play style. I am also dragging out the XBox. I am finally catching up on my podcasts and Ladies of Leet has really motivated me to go back to other games when I have time. I am finishing up Call of Duty Black Ops single player campaign. I had to learn the controller all over again. I think it's been over a year since I played.

On a personal note I quit smoking last week. Today is day 7. I'm a bit hectic and crazy. Just when I was feeling like I was getting things on the right track I've gone off the deep end. lol
