So, GJ's finally been dead. It's amazing how long I've actually been using this website. Unfortunately, there's really nothing more to see here.

So, I'm jumping ship with most of you over to Livejournal. You can find me at:

I also have an account at InsaneJournal. Same name, atomicnerfbat. Dunno if I'm going to update them both simultaneously, or ignore one.

See you there!

A Simple Question

Why do the people on the WoW forums complain about the shaman class?

I don't know what people were expecting when rolling a shaman as a main, or even as an alt. I mean, do you expect an 'OMGWTFBBQIPWNURFACEZOFF' type of character when you see this on WoW's website?

The old phrase "jack of all trades, master of none" is an excellent way to describe the Shaman; they are the only real "hybrid" class in World of Warcraft. While they do not excel at any one aspect of their repertoire, they function passing well when performing most tasks called upon by a party.

I'm sorry, but I don't see a whole lot wrong with the class. In fact, I enjoy playing the class. I can fit into any role anyone needs me to fit into: I can DPS, I can heal. In fact, Isaka is elemental-spec right now (spell dps) and I healed two rounds of Black Morass last night, and did so quite handily.

People need to stop whining about not being in "GOD MODE" and start enjoying the game.

My guild brought me into Karazhan for the first time, tonight. Nothing major, they just needed some extra DPS to ice Prince.

Got a sweet drop, too.

Woot woot 4 me.

You know, if I didn't have class tonight, my butt would be at home in bed right now.

I didn't go to bed until 4 this morning.

Want to know what's sad? I'll probably go home and play WoW for a couple of hours. Almost have my 1st 70...

So, anyway, I got lost in a cemetery yesterday.

I have to work on a plant ID project for my Landscape Plant Materials course; basically, I have to take a bunch of pictures of a bunch of different plants and put them in a little book-thing. Well, my boss told me that a good place to go is Ferncliff Cemetery in Springfield. So, yesterday, I packed up the camera and went.

I got a lot of good pictures; however, this cemetery is humongous. And, as I'm totally clueless when it comes to directions, I get lost somewhere in the Jewish section in the cemetery.

All I could think was, "If Resident Evil happens, I'm screwed."

So, it's 7:10 AM and I have to leave for work in twenty minutes.

Yes, I finally found another job. It's nowhere near as lucrative as my last one, but I actually enjoy the work. I'm working at Mark Webber's Landscaping; due to my overbearing class schedule, I'm only pulling around 25-30 hours a week. So, things are still going to be a little tight as far as the budget goes, but I'm getting some good firsthand experience in my chosen career field.

And I'm also eating Advil Liquigels like they're Pez. Seriously, this work is pretty tough. I'm hurting in places on my body that I didn't even know existed.

We're halfway through the first quarter and I'd say I'm pulling a high-B or low A average. I'm really doing quite well, but you know me: Mr. Perfectionist. I guess I wouldn't really be happy with anything short of the dean's list.

But, anyway, that's life in a nutshell for me.

Adios.

Hmmm...got an invite for Tabula Rasa beta. I think I'll give it a shot.

Yes, I know it's lame and means absolutely nothing any more, but I finally got my first 60.

Yes, it's lame that I've been playing for a while and I just now have a level 60.

And for some reason the banner still says 59. It lies.
