Nothing left to hide

A news update on my life from most recent (easiest to remember) to some point in mid June.

This paragraph is about World of Warcraft.  I’ve been raiding too much, and I need to find a way to duck out of some of these raids so I can just do something else.  Their are rumors of adding a 4th raiding night which make my head hurt to think about it.  I haven’t gotten any new loot on my rogue. Naxxramas makes me realize how much my other guild members actually suck.   We’ve cleared Anub, Raz, Noth, and soon Grand Widow, and the loot has been boring.  My hunter is doing well, he might start picking up some Dragon Stalker, but right now I’m just waiting on an epic ranged weapon.  I’m mostly just farming on my rogue for various potion reagents and consumables.  I try and do it during work so I get paid to do something not fun in the game.

This paragraph is about my brother.  Phillip graduated a while back, and is now looking for a job, much like myself.  We both aren’t pursuing the issue as well as we should be, and thinking towards the future is just something we’ve never trained ourselves to do very well at all.  He’s been up here this week, hanging out, hopefully realizing that Seattle is a better choice for his future than Vancouver, although I haven’t been making a very convincing argument of the matter.  I was originally hoping to have some plans for proving my point, that he needs to get away from his parents just for a while so that he can feel freedom, and not get stuck in that home town drudgery that my former high school companions have.

This paragraph is about proposals.  I asked Jen to marry me a few weeks back after my parents came to visit us for the 2nd time in the history of me living in Seattle.  She said Yes, so I am in-fact engaged.  We have no specific date set although this Winter when things calm down a bit for everyone we might be looking more seriously at specific times.  My parents are ecstatic and constantly calling about different ideas and plans they have for the ceremony.  I am constantly being reminded of how little I know about what a modern wedding entails, and how stupidly pompous they are, so obviously I’m finding the whole situation troublesome.

This paragraph is about my family. My Grandmother’s health is declining, and like the line in too many films “she only has a year or so to live.”  I wasn’t shocked, to be honest I was expecting this for some time after my grandfather passed away.  She hasn’t had too good of a time since, and I could tell she wasn’t as healthy as she used to be.

And lastly, no new job on the outlook, and lots of nothing happening at my current job.
