A rare meme!

thistlechaserMeme of the Day: Post the first lines from each month of the last year, Twitter reposts excluded. I avoid Twitter like the plague, so no worries on that part!
January: Really, really bored on WoW, I got to thinking. I hate fighting DKs more than anything, and I have one already rolled... what would it be like to play on that end of things? So I sent him into AV and OMG I loved it! All the annoying crap from fighting them is a whole lot more fun on the other end! Even though I basically facerolled (I have zero idea what my abilities are or what I should be using -- need to work more on that!), I rocked!
[The real first post was a locked one that I don't want to quote outside of a lock, but it was about RL (work) instead of WoW. This quoted one amuses me because I've come full circle: I learned to play DK, then forgot how to again! So, one year later, I'm in the same exact place! Not to mention that Cata ruined DK for me, so...]
February: What's that period in life called, when a woman suddenly MUST HAVE BABY NOW? That's me, but it's cats and not babies. Three nights in a row now (THREE!) I've had dreams where I somehow ended up with a lot of cats. And by "lot" I mean 6-8 of them.
March: Man, and I really posting less than once a week now? It's been ten days since my last update! Perhaps good news on that front: The random LJ image sites have started working again! Woo woo! Perhaps I'll find some wild and wacky stuff to post.
[Amusingly, I'm making this post now because it's been a while since I last posted!]
April: Google changing its name to Topeka (because Topeka changed its name to Google as part of its bid to become one of Google's high speed test cities) killed me.
May: Have the last two eps been typical of Glee? I remember watching an ep early on and it did nothing for me (which is surprising, because I love musical TV shows), but I really liked tonight's ep and last week's.
[Again, the real first one was locked and I don't want to post it unlocked. Bitching about my apartment management.]
June: Yesterday I mentioned how small the BK ribs were? I found a picture:
Also, pricing info that I didn't have yesterday: "They offer a $5.99 6 piece meal and add 2 more for $1.00. You can also add 3 pieces to a value meal for $1.99."
[The title of this one, "I blog about the most important things", made me laugh!]
July: I bought a new bed today. Even though mine is 13 or 14 years old and kills my back (sometimes it's hard to even stand up in the morning), I had been putting off replacing it. The idea of laying down on beds to test them while other people watch made me really uncomfortable.
[Ha ha, I have the same back pain with my new bed, so it must be me and not the bed!]
August: 8. What's your favorite genre to write? To read?
Serious, dark, "deadly" stuff. I generally don't enjoy light, fluffy RP, or that "crack" RPing. Gimme torture! Pain! Betrayal! Character death! Darkness! Doom and gloom!
[Ha ha, my failed RP meme! I tell myself I still intend to go back and finish it one day, but that's looking less and less likely.]
September: Grrr mumble. My 17 button MMO mouse arrived today, woo! I opened the shipping box and found... the mouse. Loose. No mouse-box, no paperwork, nothing. Just the mouse loose in the box. A quick bit of googling showed it does indeed come in a box (and a rather spiffy one at that). So, confused and a tad annoyed, I emailed the company it came from. It's refurbished.
[Well, I do still use and like the mouse, it's the most comfortable one I've ever had, so I guess it worked out in the end?]
October:
Keen's party wiped. On Coren Direbrew.
Damned idiot moonkin started the fight. Idiot DK tank decided to let us all die to "teach us a lesson". 30 second fight turned into 20 minutes of endless arguing and cursing, the two blaming each other when both were at fault.
[Yeah. And this is why I still avoid random instances like the plague. The majority of WoW players are horrible, awful, nasty "people".]
November:
Haken the Death Knight
Likes origami, painting
and killing people
[Nano Haiku! Another thing I never finished! And I still hate that one, it just doesn't work.]
December:I was feeling stressed, but Google made it better. (RL, locked)
Alt text: "55th Anniversary: Rosa Parks refuses to move"
December is always a bad month for me, but this year it's especially stressy.

There! A meme I completed! It's easy when you do it all in one sitting. ;)
There's surprisingly less WoW in this than I would have guessed, sometimes I feel like it's all I post about.
I need to post about Harry Potter at some later time. I finally finished Mark Reads Harry Potter and I feel like I've reread the whole series myself (and I kind of feel like I want to really reread the books now and maybe some fics).

October:
Wait, I have a Livejournal? The things you discover when randomly googling things :D
November:
This is deeply unfair. I demand more weekend!
December:
Back at work after being sick for half of last week. Again.
Fourth time I've been sick this year. Stupid friends bringing their stupid colds over to my place and making me ill :P
FIN!
PS: Those BK Ribs look repulsive. Ugh!
