RIP Kitty. :(

July 12, 2010 My Other Life No comments

Before I had kids.. I had a cat..

In 1996 my then girlfriend Christy and I were visiting her mother and this little cat just would not leave us alone.. her mom said “she needs a good home take her.”  so I did.  Prior to Christy and I having Sarah, Kitty was more or less the closest thing we had to a kid..  After Sarah tho, the cat went outside..

A few years and a girlfriend later, kitty lived with me in a place or two.. but she wasn’t one to get along with other cats.. so eventually back to mom’s she went to live outside..

A couple of years ago, her health started to decline.. and a couple of weeks ago she started being treated for a growth on her face… mom made the decision to put her down this morning and she is now buried under a very nice Magnolia tree in her front yard with a very nice vew of the creek.

I will miss my cat.

WoW: The Return Of Onyxia?

According to Blizzards WoW Site in patch3.2.2, the Onyxia encounter will be upgraded to a 10 man regular instance and 25 man Heroic instance..

Back in the old old content days I probably helped kill Onyxia so many times I can’t guess how many of her heads I’ve seen, and I have the hide bag to prove it.   There is also a 310% flying mount that will be dropping off her, which is modeled after her.. that outta be fun :)

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm

August 11, 2009 My Other Life One comment

So.. I wrote before that it’s been speculated that WoW would continue to add expansions till you get to level 110, and now with Wrath of the Lich King being a year old and the majority of players at 80, it’s about time for them to announce the next xpac.

if you know your history you will see:

Original Game released: November 23, 2004

Burning Crusade announced: October 28th, 2005

Burning Crusade released: January 16, 2007

Wrath of the Lich King announced: August 3, 2007

Wrath of the Lich King released: November 13, 2008

So.. the math sez we are due.  Recently Blizzard trademarked the name “Cataclysm” , which is also known in WoW lore as “The Great Sundering” ..

During that event (according to lore) the “Well of Eternity” along with 80% of the land mass in Azeroth was destroyed.  The Well was Turned into the Mealstrom, which is that swirly thing on the map of Azeroth..

So.. What does Todd think?

I dunno..  but the trend shows “it’s about time” and I think it would be nice to break away from this continuation of Warcraft III content and finally onto some actually new gameplay.
