A whole lot of crap going on.
So a whole lot of stuff is going on. I'm trying to level my Pally to 70 and it's a bitch and a half to do it. I'm starting to get tired of not being able to really play with my husband. I won't quit though since then it would mean everything I've done has been a huge waste of my time, and I do not waste time if I don't have to. Lately instead of questing while my husband is raiding I've just been grinding experience. Meaning I've just been killing mobs that serve me no purpose for quests. I have been killing mobs that are supposed to drop items for my alchemy trade skill. When I was hunting them for my quest they dropped everything under the sun, now they rarely drop anything I want�bastards. I'm level 52 right now and I hope to reach 53 tonight.
I've also been preparing everything for the dinner we're having in June. I really wanted to invite some of the friends I've made through Animanga and SnS, but everyone lives soooo far away from me. They would never pay the amount of money it would take to come just for a small dinner party. Tonight I need to finish putting together the invitations for my co-workers. Last night I finished Matt's co-workers and his mothers because she was on the same sheet the RSVP cards were printed out on. She's already causing trouble and I have a feeling what "little" she has done is not the last of it. Before I stressed about seating, but after speaking with my mentor I realized how silly that was. The dinner is for my husband and I and our happiness comes before hers. I will try my best, but I won't bend over backwards and sit somewhere I don't want to. The invitations didn't come out as expected. I had measured them incorrectly so the envelopes I bought are an inch too big. I know, don't stress�but it bugs the living crap out of me every time I think about it! Grrr�
Tomorrow is the tasting for one of the desserts, Champagne cake. I'm actually excited about it, even if I won't be having it at the party. There are three desserts to choose from a three berry tart a la mode, a chocolate mousse cake a la mode and the Champagne cake. My mom and I had the other two desserts when we went up there to test their food. The cake is the only dessert that Wawona isn't going to be making. I actually planned on having it at the Pine Resort, but they are a ridged bunch of people who can't even bend a little rule like giving us the option of 2 desserts. I asked the director at Wawona if it was ok if we added a third and she said it was fine since I'm making place cards and stuff. (The same things I told Pine Resort I would do.) I guess being in Yosemite makes you more relaxed and less anal about rules and restrictions? XD
I am also worrying about party favors. How much is too much? I'm thinking something from Godiva. Godiva can let you personalize things and I could pick out what I want, but I'm not sure. Would a box of 2 truffles be too small and is 4 truffles to big? Do they make a 3 box of truffles? XD My mom and I will need to head to Sac. or some other Godiva store to see if we should go that route. They are more expensive, but I just adore their truffles. My husband doesn't really care about any of this. His only feelings have been that he wanted the Prime rib for dinner with Champagne cake for dessert. That's it. He let me pick out the colors which are pinks, purples, blues and teals. So much to do and I'd like it to be all done by middle of April. I really really want to go stay at the Kabuki Hotel in San Fran. for the Cherry Blossom Festival, but then I keep thinking I should save it to buy a house or a computer. BLARG!
I know everything is nothing to be stressed about, but I know I am since I keep picking and biting at my bottom lip. Everything will get done, just perhaps not according to my schedule that I have careful planned out.

Morals and Ethics
Morals: principles or habits with respect to right or wrong conduct
Ethics: a complex of moral precepts held or rules of conduct followed by an individual
First I should explains some things. "Red" is what the Alliance comes up to me as so I call them red or reds. My husband calls me a racist and is trying to get me to call them Alliance. That's too long though and "red/s" sums it up nicely. Grey means the person so much lower then you that you won't get any experience or in pvp they don't have a fighting chance. Green means in pvp it means if they aren't a twink you'll probably kill them. Yellow means they are close to your level. Orange means they are about 3-4 levels higher then you. Red means they are 5+. Skull means death, quick or slow depending on what they decide.
It seems that WoW is seriously lacking in morals and ethics when it comes to pvp. My husband laughs because 1) I'm a pussy when it comes to pvp (Any sign of trouble even when he's around and I "bubble" myself.) and 2) I won't kill every "red" I see. "You know they would kill you if they could," he told me last night. Perhaps, but I'm not them. I don't kill people who are grey. I don't kill people who are farming for trade skill stuff to sell or use. I don't kill people who are fighting other people or mobs. I may or may not kill someone who isn't doing the above depending on what they come up as. These are my morals and ethics in the game. I will hand someone their ass or have my husband do it if they piss me off. Which happened last night and has happened a few other times since I started to play.
A few nights ago I went through a zone controlled by the "reds" and it was basically for people who would be about 10 or more levels lower then me. I saw about 5 people and left them alone...almost. One "group" decided to try and kill me. 5 against 1 little ol' me, how could they lose? I decided since they were grey to just "bubble" and run away. My husband laughed and called me a pussy since they are grey. I realized that they all fell back and their stupid 29 druid friend kept trying to bring me down I got pissed. I tried to be nice. I tried to just leave them alone and show that I wouldn't hand them their ass, but the druid was stupid so I killed him. It was quick and painless. :) I may not start a fight with a grey, but I'll damn well finish it! XD I also saw someone about 6 levels below me who was green, but he was trade skill hunting so I left him alone.
The other night I was trying to finish up a quest that involves some goblin miners who have a far agro range and seemed to love to gang rape the crap out of my character, I died 4 times! There was a "red" there who was really nice. If he saw me in trouble he'd come help me and so I'd do the same. Finally someone who just wanted to get the damn quest done and didn't mind helping anyone in need. We were both pallies and he was only one level lower then me so we could have done a fair duel, but the drop rate on the goblins was horrid so we just kept at our quest. My husband called him a "fucking care bear" (and so am I it seems) when I pointed out not all "reds" just kill when you're fighting something and can be honorable.
A co-worker who plays isn't even pvp flagged, but will go kill people 40 levels lower then him that are. I find that very cheap and sad. Pick on someone who's going to put up a fight. The co-worker isn't even pvp flagged himself so there's no other word I can think of for that kind of act, but "pussy". I did find out though that when he does kill someone he becomes pvp flagged. I don't think he knows or realizes how many low levels out there are twinks/alts so I'm hoping he finds out the hard way so he quicks picking on those so much lower. :) Evil yes, but a lesson he needs to learn. He also said he wanted to come to my server to kill me. Sure he probably could, but then I would have to log onto the Warlock and corpse camp him and stalk him until my need to revenge was satisfied. Or I'd have my husband do it, both works for me. :)
