All of the Aggro....Do Not Want!

    I have been trying so hard not to cause bad aggro lately. For some reason I've had a lot of days where all I desire to do is throw fire balls at the folks around me. Which is highly unusual for me. Normally this little Oracle is relatively happy, calm and all about seeing the best in people. I keep wondering what is going on.

   I mean things at The Wizard's Tower have been pretty relaxed and non-stressful. I have been mostly keeping to myself there, except for a couple select people seeing I know how much aggro I can accrue if I don't. There was a bit of aggro stupid a couple of months ago that caused me to be much more careful at work and with who I talk to about pretty much anything there.

    Things are still going very well with my questing partner. We are learning how to let our spells and quests work together more and more each day. I am still super happy to have him, feel super lucky that I found him and all in all, just am so glad that we came together and decided to share our quests as we move forward on our dailies. I can no longer see myself without him in my questing and this game called life and it's an amazing path that I've been going down.

    Outside of work, my crew is still the best! They are still amazing. We still have a ton of fun when we join forces for dungeons or raids, lots of good crazy times. Let's just say the support, fun, and love that comes from all of us is a great and wonderful thing. As a kid I really never had that true, "best friend" but now I have a whole crew filled with people who I would absolutely call my best friends and my chosen family. Yes, I am lucky there. I am very excited as we have some actual outdoor adventures this coming weekend. Out in the woods with streams and ponds (No, not Amy and Rory) and probably much fire and fun. I'm hoping that helps with the letting go of the grr.

    So with so much good, it's really been hard to figure out why I've had such frustration at things in my dailies. I find myself so annoyed with stupidity, cattiness and drama now. I also have been finding myself becoming more judgmental of those who revel in those things. I get more and more annoyed at those people with each passing day. Not really sure where all this grump is coming from, but I suppose I will figure it out eventually. Maybe I just need to cast a Calm Person on myself every day, because I really don't know what else to do. I just have to figure out what I can do to release the frustration, perhaps it will even be as simple as starting to raise my Strength, Dexterity and Constitution scores by becoming more active and such. But we shall see. This too shall pass.

    So now I leave you to your own dailies and paths, hopefully I will be a little more regular in my posting and such. It's just been a hard few months to keep up with everything. But I will get back to it, I know it! As I go, I just have one thing to say in honor of the Guardians of the Galaxy movie that has been breaking the box offices with wildfire for a little while now....

He is Groot!!!

The Shiny, The Creepy and The Normal

    Creepy crawly creatures are everywhere around today. It came to a point where I was taking my trek to acquire my daily energy potion and this creature was going the opposite direction, saw me, did a double take and proceeded to follow me, even when I sped up my movement until I went into my destination and down an aisle not seen from the entry way. I was getting ready to turn if he continued and attempt to use my verbal components to make him go away.

    The lurking that I actually have started noticing again is a little weird. It's been mostly older creatures who have been trying desperately to be lecherous in their leers. It has been making me progressively more and more defensive. I swear one of these days a fireball really will fly from my hands when that happens. It's quite disconcerting that it has been happening like this.

    In other paths of my life, the Tower is still going well. I have officially become the only person working on 2 of the 5 Acquisition Guilds we work with. So I've been super busy and super tired. It has taken it's tole on me in the gaming aspect of my life. I return to the domicile at night and have a hard time thinking much less making more cognitive decisions about a game.

    My questing partner has started a new path in his life, moving from one tavern to another. It seems as though once this new place picks up it will more then likely be a much better place. They will treat him better at least in the long run. The new tavern just opened so it's all still new and slow. But soon all will progress in the direction it is supposed to. Yay for new daily quests for him. It makes me exceptionally happy and proud that he took this step!

    As the summer progresses and moves into fall, I find I am creeping up on yet another one of my big achievements. I am getting quite excited. I have been working towards this one for quite some time so once it happens believe me I will absolutely announce it loud and clear. Just can't yet, because I haven't gotten it yet. :)

    Lately it has been interesting to watch, I am not used to having so many other dungeon crawlers in my life that are female! I have been finding quite a few who have been entering my questing and raiding. It's been so great to finally have other ladies that I relate to, share things with and have fun adventures with. I have counted myself blessed by their presence! Having been in a state where frequently it has been me and the guys, which I also love but it has been nice to have other ladies around. I THINK it may has even caused some moments of giggly girly-ness more recently. Which rarely happens for me. But either way, ladies who have come into my game I call life recently, I am so grateful and happy you are about and around! <3
