WoW bug fading

I know this is temporary.
But the title pretty much says how I'm feeling right now. My WoW bug is fading a bit. How can this be!?!?!?!
WoW used to be my life... fo reals yo!!!
My drive to do anything besides Professions and Garrison stuff is gone. I'm not running dungeons or raids or even playing with friends. :-(
If I'm logged on most likely I'm just parked somewhere.

I got so bored I decided to get all my fishing achieves.
It's something that I enjoy doing. Maybe because it's something that I can do by myself... solo if you will. Leveling professions, Leveling Alts, Doing Achievements. I'm not saying that I don't LIKE doing anything with friends, just that there's so much to do on your own but I NEED to do it.
I was asked to elaborate on "why"...  Why am I feeling bored and in a WoW rut.
I had no specific answer. Cuz I still find things I enjoy doing,, but then I get bored quick.
And then after all the time I tell myself I'm getting bored... I find WoW is what's consuming most of my free time and keeping me up late. I will find some mundane thing to do in game to avoid going to sleep. Just to be logged in, flying around, sitting in one spot doing nothing, watching Hulu or Netflix at the same time is comfort for me. In a strange way it keeps me sane. Yes I have a crazy imagination with my WoW stories and just the dumb things I think about and the way my mind works.
$15 a month is what I will pay to be content for the time being. I don't know If I would ever stop my subscription even if I didn't log on every day. We shall see.

Amani Dragonhawk scam?

So this morning someone was spaming trade trying to sell this.
I would LOVE to have this mount. So much so that the 111k that it was going for on the Auction house, I would have been willing to pay.
BUT! how could I pass up spending 30k less from this random person in trade right?
Auction House buying is the safest way. I really never go anyother way no matter how much Blizzard makes it hard for people to get ripped off.
But I figured to take that chance.
First thing that got me leery was that this was a lvl 1 toon probably used for bank/trades OR 1 shady act and then the toon is deleted.

So I gave in said I'll buy it. Person invited me to party and told to meet him in VoH outside AH. I opened trade and put 85k in the box and waited. Yes I was feeling nice because that's just how I am. Stupid, one might say but to be fair, I watched this person try to sell it from 85k and slowly went down as the hours went by. And then he closes trade and tells me he needs like 10 minutes.
Um OK? first off this was a terrible seller. You don't spam in trade, invite and tell the person to come to YOU and you NOT have the product ready. You have that shit ready, especially if you're a Chinese gold farmer that does this on a regular basis! Stereotype intended :-P
In the end I knew I really wasn't gonna get scammed out of 80k. BUT! the fact that this seller was not up to my standards of what an "In-game seller" should be, you do not get my business my dear.
I log out...

2 hours later I log back in on my Mage and see the person still selling it. then I see the person ask in trade if I was still there. LOL. Aww you lost a good buyer pal.
Then about 3 hours later I log back in on Deadskully and get this whisper...
Bad desperate seller
I never responded.

Dags' Weapons

My new mission is to find cool looking two-handed swords, maces, axes and polearms for Dags.
I have the glyph that will have him randomly equip two of them at a time if I have them in my bag. If I want him to roll around with different ones, I just have to re summon him. I didn't get screenshots of all of the ones I have. I will probably put them in "screenshot a day" blog when I decide to start adding new screenies to that.
My mission is to get Despair from Romulo and Julianne Opera Event Boss in Karazhan.  I had it before and just kept it in my Void Bank but sold it when I was doing some bank cleaning. I noticed the glyph didn't work constantly, but it did state that just the Felguard can equip the random weapons. So I never really pushed to keep them in my bag for Dags who is my Wrathguard.
But then I noticed that he had them more after WoD so now I'm collecting awesome weapons for him :-)
So if anyone on Hyjal finds awesome looking two-handed BoE weapons that they would like to sell to me just CoD them to me.
Ooorrr just give them to me hehe. Kidding, I would gladly pay for them.

So much to do in WoD

I think I'll be in trouble when Valor comes back. I've only ran 2 dungeons this expansion because there's so much to do with Deadskully and my alts, and if I'm not getting Valor or Justice at the moment I really don't have time to sit in a 30-45 minute DPS que only to wipe. Luckly the 2 times I've ran dungeons we never wiped, but close to it. I'll give it a little bit more before I try to go back in and see if fail people still fail. 
My Garrisons are majority to blame for my consumption of time I spend ingame. Profession dailies, CDs, garrison resource collecting, along with leveling takes up all my time. Oh and I haven't even got all my toons to Draenor yet.
I'd love to get better gear, grind rep, do achievements on Deadskully, but all those things are taking a back seat to the push to max out my professions on all my toons, and upgrade my Garrisons. So much to do, so much to do...

Actually that's a good thing. It keeps me busy at home that I'm not going out to spend money.
This is really dumb, but the past week, I had to set my alarm sometimes for stuff. Like to eat, take a break, shower, sleep. It's sad really. No it's not a problem, I can stop when I want to... ummm, yeah I can!!!!
Anywhos getting back to my garrisons... So upgraded to level 3 just have to upgrade the rest of my shops. This will take a while, but I've done it many times... and I have a lot of time on my hands... A LOT of time on my hands. :-P

new skins turn off

Sooo... yeah.
a couple weeks ago a friend told me something that would have been useful before I spent 15 bucks on my Tauren Druid's race change. Or!!! if I  just start reading shit on my own. :-P
/sigh... anywhos, After my incessant whining about the new Undead skins after the patch that brought it, I covered up Deadskully's face with a Bandit Mask mog and saw it as a reason/excuse to race change Spammusubi to a Troll.
But anyways my friend Cole was online the whole first night of the WoD launch and we were chatting a bit, and then he tells me about the option to turn off the new skins. And I was like what!?!?!?!? lol seriously. I was excited I got to put my Hallowed Crown back on Deadskully, bummed that I spent $15 on my Druid's race change, but content because it gave me 4 stories: Makeover sadness and Spammusubi's race change (3 parts).
Having the Bandit Mask on Deadskully grew on me, but she needed her crown back... because you know, Princess Skully needs her crown.

First day of WoD

Not a great experience for the first day of Warlords as we saw on many peoples facebook feeds and forum posts. Midnight came around and I was able to play on Hyjal on Horde Deadskully for a bit before the lag and idiots just was too much. So I figured to check out a low pop server and I have my Alliance Deadskully on Lothar so I switched to there. It was so much better. I am currently only 20% away from hitting 93 on that toon. Horde Deadskully is still only 91 so sad.
As I'm writing this I am currently sitting in a Hyjal que that started off at 3063 in que and 78 minutes. Friends posted terrible ques they had for higher pop servers then mine. It was ridiculous. I gave up earlier and figured to try and nap because it was better to play after midnight when everyone is sleeping etc.  The ques and lag was expected, it really was. But I'd like to think that with all the years of releases they would have made successful attempts to prevent the lag. But I won't go into the reason why they said there were actual issues.
___________________________
next morning:
OK so, my que popped, I logged in and I fell asleep. got logged out, got up, logged back in and fell asleep. and did that 2 more times until I finally fell asleep until 430 am, got up again and said fuck it, and went to my bed. Woke up and felt like hell. At least I'm on my vacation. Don't have to worry about going into work, but can't enjoy my vacation to the fullest because I don't feel good but also because WoW is having "issues" whatever.
Aside for the terribleness of it all I will tell you what I enjoyed.
I really enjoyed the Garrison stuff. There's so much to do and I love stuff like that about the game.  My Garrison for my Alliance is upgraded but my Horde Garrison is still lvl one. Soon I'll get it there. It's funny because I wanna level quick but I wanna poke around with Garrison stuff it's distracting me from my level 100 mission. Meh it's ok. Ohh and now while I'm questing on Horde, I'm finding that the Alliance quests are easier for some reason. And I enjoy the landscape of the Alliance side of Draenor better. Alright, I'll end this now because I just got kicked off of WoW again and I can't log back in and I need to go clean my house or something :-)

The Day has come!!!!!: Warlords of Draenor launch

Yes, I request off of work for a game release (expac in this case)
Yes, I use my vacation time for just sitting at home and playing video games
Yes, I will have several days/nights of no sleep
No, I will not shower for several days
No, I will not step outside my front door

I know this list can go on but I will stop it here.
I am extremely excited for tonight. Hopefully work goes by fast and without any issues. I will be closing with Robin now so no napping before midnight.
First expansion in a long time I will be going in blind. I was not given a beta key this expac. As extremely bummed as I was, I thought of it like this: Discover things for the first time with majority of the world. meh, nvmd that was a shitty attempt at trying to make myself feel better for not getting into beta. What the fuck ever! :-P
Anywhos, I have not read anything not even that launch guide link I posted on my FB feed. Having done the betas for the other expansions, It was always a race to hit max level the quickest I could possibly go and then go back and explore. You're at an advantage of course, because you know the quests and dungeons etc. It will be slow for me this time. I will not rush anything, BUT I hope it won't take me all my 6 vacation days to hit 100. that would suck.lol
I made sure to move all my screenshots to my hard drive and free up the folder on my desktop for a shit load of new screenshots. I am the screenshot Queen and expect nothing less in the first week of this expansion. I will try to keep up with my "Screenshot-a-day" blog. 8/24/14 was my last post in that. I'll try to keep up with that one.
I am excited for garrisons. I wanted to get the beta mainly to poke around with that. That will be my new hangout like Halfhill was in MoP. Screenies I've seen so far are so beautiful of the landscape of Draenor I'm so excited.
Finally I will end this by saying that I will attempt to not sleep for the first few days, but we'll see. I am not going to go with energy drinks... just Mountain Dew and candy... put myself into a sugar coma instead of sleeping. aye!
