The April LIW small talk thread

[ladypirate]

What about doing an angled bob like Victoria Bekham was sporting for a while? I think that could be really cute!

 

[Lauren8211]

I made my new character.

I wanna play her so bad! Can''t wait til Monday!

Somegirl: I was thinking maybe cut the length, and give it some side-swept bangs?

 

[ladypirate]

Oooo!!! That''s so exciting! I''m going to try to hop on tonight or tomorrow morning to work on mine!!!

I''m trying to decide what class to play. I''m thinking of rolling either a lock, hunter or priest since I''ve never played those before and we already have a mage. I could roll a pally, but I already have a level 20 something that I can play, so I''m kind of meh on it, and my main is a rogue. Priest would be awfully handy to have in a party, so I may do that.

Plus a blood-elf priest would be hawt.

BTW, this is Laoghaire:

No way!

I used to be addicted to The Sims. It was out of control. I''d play that until 5am, and then wake up at 10 to play until 5am again.

I had NO LIFE.

That can''t happen again.

Oh my god me too!!! It''s way too easy to let 5 hours go by playing that game.

Jooooiiin us, Sunny....

 

[Lauren8211]

I have a 42 priest also on DrakThul. I almost suggested priest to Bia, but thought that might be too hard for her. Healz r teh difficult!

That would be sweet if you rolled a Priest. I fully support that!

I think I might spec Frost instead of fire for my new mage that I''m playing with you guys.

I need screen shots of my chars... brb

 

[Lauren8211]

This was on my computer already... screen shot on a mount with a cool background. How pretty is this game? Seriously.

 

[Lauren8211]

My main, the 60 mage

LOL!!! Jeez, I call my FSIL and FBIL nerds for playing D&D, FI would laugh at me if I said I wanted to play WoW! ...or he would love me even more for embracing his dorky side (he wants me to start playing too). We fight enough over the ''puter already.

 

[ladypirate]

It''s only a couple hours a week, Sunny! Do you have Monday evenings free?

 

[FrekeChild]

Yeah...a couple hours a week. Uh huh...

 

[ladypirate]

LOL--I''m glad I started updating last night--there are so many patches to download!

I guess that''s what happens when you don''t play for over a year and a half...

In other news, I was sweeping the stairs and reached over to get the corner and smacked my head on the overhang and bit my tongue hard enough to make it bleed in the process. Oww!

Um... OUCH? I HATE biting my tongue. Its like stubbing your toe... its such a stupid injury but it hurts like a m''er f''er.

Do you have Wrath of the Lich King expansion? Or Just Burning Crusade?

 

[ladypirate]

Just burning crusade--I stopped playing before the other expansion came out. Is it like burning crusade where it doesn''t really matter until you hit a high level? I know there''s the 55 death knight, but did it also add other stuff?

 

[Lauren8211]

Yeah, I dont think it matters til you''re high level. FF and I are trying to remember... but you should be fine without it.

 

[ladypirate]

Cool--I got all updated and created my character. She is hawt! Chrysoberyl, level 1 BE priest.

 

[Lauren8211]

Xylena, level 1 BE mage, ready to go!

 

[ladypirate]

K--I logged on and added you as a friend. We should be good to go come Monday!!!

Now I really need to log an hour or two of playtime before then so I can remember how to use the dang controls...

 

[Lauren8211]

Ditto.

Do you use add-ons? Like CT Raid or Questhelper?

 

[ladypirate]

I don''t...are they helpful? Available for mac?

 

[Lauren8211]

I like CT Mod, and yeah its available for Mac. It gives you the ability to really customize a lot of stuff on your interface. You can have a lot more bars and move them anywhere you want. Really helpful when you''re higher level and have so many skills.

QuestHelper is useful... but since we''re BEs... I already have those quests memorized (Yes, I am clearly a nerd) so it wouldn''t help us until much later. It shows you where drops/kills are so it takes the guess work out of questing. I don''t know if that''s available for Mac.

There are SO many add-ons. There''s probably one that plays the damn game for you.

Haha, this is too funny! FF and I were just talking about this yesterday. He plays WOW and he told me I should start playing. He said he would teach me but I declined for right now... b/c with the proposal happening anytime between now and June 9th, I am a mess! I am beyond impatient and would probably bite his head off if I didn''t understand how to do something. lol... it would be bad.

But maybe after the proposal and I''m anxiety-free lol...

 

[misskitty]

My friend''s sister just got engaged! Friend was showing pics of the ring, it looks like a 2.5ish RB with a halo, but I wasn''t 100% sure because the photos were a little blurry. And I had to bite my tongue to stop from asking about the specs, haha. Thanks, PS

Yes, PS is such a curse and a blessing. There''s no way to tactfully ask for stats! It''s so sad!

 

[somegirl932]

the boy is continuing to be suspicious... and signs point to his parents dropping off the ring when they were here this weekend... hmmm... i shouldn't snoop, right?...

 

[misskitty]

Don''t snoop!!! The surprise will be 100% worth it.

I can''t wait for your "we''re engaged!" post

 

[somegirl932]

haha i''ve already thought of a title for it... i''m such a dork... i''m hoping he does it before the end of the semester... last night he asked me, "hey, how many more weeks of school do we have? how many weekends is that?... hey, um... are you busy any of those weekends?" when i asked why he said "oh, um, just trying to figure out some stuff..."

 

[somegirl932]

oh, and misskitty because i didn''t want to threadjack the solitaires thread three posts in... i''ve started to *really* like asschers, but i think they look better a little bigger than where our budget is... if that makes sense. just large enough carat weight to actually see the steps... and i''m more attached to the square shape anyway...

 

[misskitty]

The obvious solution to this is to get a RHR

. Perhaps with a colored stone?

 

[jcarlylew]

good morning all! hope everyone had a good easter!!
