Where are you going?

It's been a slow weekend. The hubby and I didn't do too much but lay around and play games. What's different from normal right? :-P Well I'm enjoying it while I can. In the next few weeks our lives are about to get a lot busier.

This coming up weekend we're going to a friends house to watch Twilight on Blue-Ray. Pretty excited about that, I've been wanting to see that movie for a while. The weekend after that is my birthday and we're headed back home to see my family for the weekend. I'm also excited about that. I haven't seen them since Christmas so this is a long overdue trip home. Then the following weekend is our one year anniversary. Yea, also excited about that. :-) I'm not expecting anything spectacular, money's really tight right now and we are saving up some for our trip to Vegas. So the weekend after our anniversary is Easter and I'm hoping we go to Kingsport again so I can go to my church for Easter. Then there's Vegas! I'm kinda excited, kinda nervous. My husband's going with me so I know everything will be okay, but I really hate big cities. I like my personal space and I feel really crowded in big cities. But it'll be something different and neither one of us have been there before. Actually, it'll be both of our first trips past the Mississippi.

So those are Aht's plans for the next couple months. It's going to be pretty busy but that's okay. All things I'm looking forward to. And lots of wonderful time to spend with the ones I love.

Okay, on to Sacred Pack.

So I spent the better part of yesterday going over raids in my head yesterday. I finally figured everything out and got it all written out. We are very close, two people shy actually, of having three full ten man runs. Three. Can you believe that?

Sacred Pack has been on her feet for almost three months, not quite, but almost. She's very young. And while I have actively recruited when we first talked about splitting into two ten mans, I have not done so in about a month. A months a long time for short attentioned spanned players right? Well apparently not. I've had a couple of people approach me about joining the guild who have seen my spams in trade chat. One actually did and so far he's a wonderful addition. He doesn't know it yet, but he's signed up as one of my healers for 25 man. hehe

As I wrote before, we've also had the merger with Coyote Moon that has brought in several wonderful people. And tomorrow, we'll hopefully get to know them all a little better as they join in on our ten mans. I also had two of my good friends from Wolfden join up with us.

Here's the strange part...I just had four people apply to join the guild yesterday. Four.

Does this not seem a little crazy? I mean, I know Wolfden got new applicants all the time, but come on...we were a guild of at least 50 active members and probably more than that. And I had also been in Wolfden for going on two years, and she'd been around longer than that. People had heard of Wolfden.

No one knows Sacred Pack. Well except my friends I keep in touch with from Wolfden that went other places. We're not a hardcore raiding guild. We're fairly small. I need to count up exactly how many active members we have, but I know we're way less than 50, like I was saying we're barely 30 for three ten mans.

But here we are. Growing like a weed with people crawling out of the woodwork. I'm not complaining. No way am I complaining, it just seems...odd.

A while back I was really worried about people tarnishing our reputation because of the hard feelings that Dero, Fen, and Floppie still hold against us. To this day I can not pass a single person from Maelstrom (well except Soulless the sweeteheart :-)) without a /rude or something to that effect. They all have made it very clear they do not like me. Thank you, now get over it. No one cares, least of all me. You made your bed, now lie in it. The truth of who you people really are and how you really treat others will show in time and I'm not worried about it. The only warning I give you is if you starting harassing my guildies, I will have something to say about it and things will not be pretty. Otherwise, you leave me alone, I leave you alone.

Okay, off my soap box.

It just blows my mind that that whole guild, for the most part, can't stand my husband and I and we STILL do not know why. But whatever, no big loss.

So back to where I was originally going with this...I was worried that the two of them would ruin our reputation on the server. Yes, I still have issues with the two of them, but that's between us, not anyone else. And no, I don't really think Flop would run his mouth, at least to anyone outside of his guild and most of them already know us anyway. I do think Dero and his crew would smash us into the ground given the proper chance though. They've already proven they are immature in how they handle things. And I worried for a while that they would try to do just that to get back at us for whatever the heck we did to turn their worlds upside down.

But it really seems just the opposite. Now I'm sure they've run their mouths to someone at some point and now people who don't even know us don't like us. BUT, I can tell you there are a lot more people out there that DO like us and do like and respect me. I'm seeing it. I've made friends with several new and wonderful people over the past few months and I'm extrememly happy with my guild and where we are going. I feel like our name is getting out there, but in a good way. Even those that will remain friends and allies and may never be guildmates, there are a lot of them out there now. There's a whole guild I still don't know that well, but I'm beginning to trust and I have a high opinion of the GM.

It's really amazing how things work sometimes isn't it? I guess that whole, treat others and you wish to be treated really pays off. ;-)
