Cake, of the Birthday and Anniversary Kind

I've been gone for a bit, I apologize. Nakar has reminded me of that a couple of times this week. :-P

So here's what I've been doing. :-)

Last weekend my husband and I went to my home town. I haven't seen my family since Christmas so it was a long overdue visit. The occasion was my birthday and it was nice. We stayed two nights with my grandparents. I went shopping with my grandmother on Saturday. A good friend of mine also came over and hung out with us. We had my favorite Italian place in Kingsport for lunch, hamburgers for dinner and Cheddars for lunch on Sunday. Mmmmm, Cheddars....

So all in all it was a good weekend. It was extremely nice to get away from the pressures of work and the pressures I've been feeling in WOW lately. Plus I got the added benefit of seeing my family. :-) Good times!

So now that we're back, we've had some changes in the guild. Most of Coyote Moon has decided to leave us. Honestly, I saw it coming. After the words that were said, I figured someone would get their feelings hurt and there would be a huge exodus. And there was....at 4 in the morning when no one was around. Oh well...not my problem anymore.

Three of those guys decided to stay with us and I can honestly say I'm stoked! Sejje, Drozz, and Akashin we thank you for keeping Sacred Pack your home and we hope you are more at home here than you have been anywhere else. I'm glad you guys decided to stay. I know Drozz and Aka pretty well, I've talked to them quite a bit anyway. But Sejje I didn't know that well. I got the pleasure of running with him and talking to him last night. I gotta say, I'm impressed. A very nice person all around. Very nice to talk to and the enthusiasm he showed last night for the guild and for the game in general was very refreshing to me. I haven't met someone that excited to be doing things in a while. It's definitely a needed reminder that we are just playing a game and it's not our job, even if it does feel like it at times.

So with all that going down, we've dropped our raids to two again and plan on keeping it that way. I held a small guild meeting last night and explained everything going on and reasured everyone that no one was kicked and they left of their own accord. We're not mad at anyone as a guild and we're going to keep trugging along at the ten and 25 man content. We've got the bodies and the desire so I'll do everything in my power to keep us going. :-)

I have to say, I'm honestly relieved that things are done now. I wish it had happened differently, as in, more than one person who left had the courtesy to at least e-mail me and tell me what the hell was going on. But whatever. Immaturity can't be hid for long.

I signed on last night and was greeted with "Taaabbbbsss" and "OMG TAB!" It was nice. Not just because I was missed, but because people were talking. Guild chat was alive and active last night and it was awesome! I had a lot of fun last night just chatting it up and hanging out with my buddies. That's what WOW is all about.

Ooooo as a side note. I received a mail from Dero yesterday... Yea, tell me about it. WAY out in left field for me. But, he apologized for his actions and what happened between us, told us he missed talking to us, and hoped we could forgive him. I talked to him quite a while last night and I gotta tell ya, it was nice. Definitely wouldn't have expected it in a million years, but I'm glad he's talking to us again. I hate tension and walls between people, no matter what has gone down in the past. It was a heavy burden gone when he apologized.

So things are improving and I'm actually feeling pretty peaceful. My job is picking up and that definitely takes the edge off at work some. This weekend is my one year anniversary and I'm excited! I can't believe it's been a year since we were married. We're not the newly weds anymore after this weekend hehe. Oh, which reminds me.

Nakar...baby room pictures...post on the forums...go.

Kinda out in left field for everyone else, but Nakar's one year anniversary is NEXT weekend so it made me think he still hasn't put pics up haha.

Well I guess that's it. Back to work!
