Distraction
Posted 08-12-2009 at 08:23 AM by Horacio
I haven't been playing much Wow lately and it has been good for me. I've been devoting my time to other pursuits, as most Donors know all too well, and spending time with the family.
And, I hate to say it, I don't really miss it. I log on a bit every day, about 10 min or so to shuffle mail around, transmute epic gems, and spent an hour the other night farming on my DK. Meh.
I'm looking forward to new content tonight in the Coliseum and we saved our Ulduar ID so we ought to be able to get a first Vezax kill as well. Those things will make me happy.
Getting to MT both nights last week pumped me up pretty good too, but I made a wipe causing mistake on Auriaya (spell interrupt fail!). Other than that, it was business as usual.
But....I'm distracted. And its quite a switch. Wow has always been the big distraction for me, the one thing that I choose to do instead of what I ought to be doing. Hence, my Chris Farley-esque fitness and the exacerbation of various other conditions.
Pressure built both in game and out but at least this time, even though I got pretty angry and vented, I didn't mash the eject button.
And so....I'm working on a side project. As I said, I yammer on and on to the Donors here on Tankspot about it and they tolerate me(which I appreciate) I would venture to guess this is a far more noble cause and activity.
I'm not quitting Wow. Getting 'fired' from my 10 man raid my be a blessing...right now it certainly feels like one. I have 2 nights a week of 25 man progression raiding and a 10K gold bankroll. My tank is kitted out in full epic gems, so....I don't need to log in and farm to support my raiding. I am enjoying my time off.
