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).
