Update time again
by Sorean on Apr.06, 2010, under Personal, World of Warcraft
So it’s been a month again and it’s been not too bad. Mostly just busy. As of this post I’m another year older, 27 to be exact. Feels a little odd to see this number keep growing. But it’s just a way of life, everyone is born, grows old, and will die. Just what we do with our lives makes the difference in the lives of others.
So what has gone on? Nothing too exciting to be honest. My life is still mostly comprised of work, volleyball, contract job, going to shows to support my friends. One band and one DJ. Luckily it hasn’t been too tough on the pocketbook. Speaking of which, I am now 100% debt free. No more student loans to speak of, just free until I get a house. Which I now plan on getting in the next 2 years. Renting just ins’t a good option any more when I can get a mortgage for around the same rate.
Chrystal is going to be moving in with me at the end of the month, I know, big step right? But honestly it feels right. It will help me save some extra money towards the aforementioned house.
This year is gonna be a bit of travel so I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to put away much towards that house, but if the contract work keeps up I can put away a few grand here and there, hopefully. June is going to be a trip to Toronto for my sister’s grad, August is a trip to Vegas for a guildie’s wedding, and then sometime in Sept/Oct for a production that my best friend is putting on, they have a fully rented out theater for it and everything. I’m kind of excited for it.
Oh, that also brings up my best friend being here on my birthday, like the actual date of it. I took the day off, went to see him perform (he’s touring Alberta and Saskatchewan doing puppet shows of Robert Munch stories for elementary schools), went for a lunch, and spent the afternoon relaxing playing Mario Bros. Wii. Then off to volleyball, it was a great way to spend the actual birthday, the only sad part is that I couldn’t have had more people take the day off
Which led me to have a BBQ on the weekend where more of my friends gathered and played some cards, socialized, and watched Wrestlemania, that’s right, I may have gotten old, but some things are still fun. Realistically, it was still fun to watch some throwback wrestlers and just the punishment they put their bodies through. It’s fun to watch, and I know it’s fake. I’ve used this term a lot, but it’s a soap opera for men and there isn’t a better way to put it. Although some of the wrestlers have just let it go, they’re a little chubby where the muscle used to be
In the World of Warcraft front, we’ve been stuck on Arthas because of a lack of consistency for attendance. Hopefully he’ll go down this week, but it seems like we’re only going to have one raid day this week. We’re a 10 strict guild at the moment, but I don’t know what to do once we’re done with these guys. I’m 1/2 thinking I might try to find my guildies a place in a larger guild, or just let them find their own way. Part of me wants to push for a bit of a 25 man progress to see how far we can get with picking up some people or using people that I have access too. But that will happen once we get finished with what we are working on. Personal goals first, then we’ll see what we can hit.

My own creation
by Sorean on Apr.05, 2010, under Jokes
So these puns are of my own creation, with the exception of the neutron one, that one inspired all these. They’ve gone on my Facebook, but I figured I’d have a better place to keep them.
A hill and a farm were having a chat. The hill wanted to know why the farm could grow so much and the hill could not. The farm replied, “I’m not inclined to tell you anything.”
Some oxygen and hydrogen atoms got into a huge fight, after a while all you could see was this cloud of mist start to rise. My friend pipes up, “Aw, would you look at that, they’re bonding.”
A base and an acid walk into a bar and start getting trashed. After a while they start throwing out racist remarks and degrading comments about pretty much everyone in the bar. Having no one respond, the two leave the bar. I ask the bartender, “What’s with those two?” The bartender responds, “Those two? Just ignore them, they’re just trying to get a reaction.”
A proton is walking home late at night and got robbed in a dark alley. Scared he goes to the nearest police station and reports it to the Desk Sargent. The Sargent hands him a book of mug shots to file a police report. After a few pages the proton exclaims, “That’s him! Billy McRobberson.” The Desk Sargent asks, “Are you sure that’s him?” The proton replies, “I’m positive.”
A neutron walks into a bar and orders a few drinks, proceeds to get completely wasted and starts trashing the bar. He breaks a few chairs, rips up the felt on the pool table, and gets kick out of the place. He feels really bad about it the next morning so he goes back to the bar. Bartender calls the cops afraid that he’s going to do more damage. The cops arrive and say, “We can’t charge him”.
Okay, that’s it for now. Tomorrow will be a real update with the highlights of the past month.
