thistlechaserIf I had made this post an hour ago, it would have been a HAPPY HAPPY post! The happy happy part will now have to wait a paragraph or two. :P
I know I don't like doing instances. I've known this since I started playing WoW. And, knowing that, I generally don't do them. Tonight a friend said she wanted a group of us so she could try out healing with people who wouldn't yell at her. I looked at who was online, just a small handful of us and some of them were RPing, so thinking the chances of her getting a party together were mighty slim (and not wanting to do more archaeology), I offered to go.
Oh. My. God. Why don't I listen to myself! I hated every single second of it. There was nothing outright wrong with it (VP), it's just that these things stress me the hell out. (I still can't relax my shoulders or bend my neck, and it ended a half-hour ago!) Everything being totally new, worrying about my damage (I'm in mostly PvP and WotLK stuff with just a couple quest greens), worrying about how hard it was going to be compared to WotLK stuff...
On the plus side, it didn't actually seem much harder. A couple tricks (stand in this, stand on tank, stand over there), and needing to CC stuff, but mostly not much different. (It was just a regular.) It's just that it was all NEW and I didn't know half the people and what if I sucked and what if I pulled everything myself by mistake and what if I fell off the edge and what if I didn't know this or that or messed everything up?
Ahhh, the peacefulness of archaeology. It may be boring and frustrating, but I can do it alone and I know how to do it and I can't kill everyone by being stupid.
Now! Onto the HAPPY HAPPY part! RP, yay! Not just tonight, but tonight AND last night! Two nights in a row, woo! It's been too long since I last played!
It's an interesting situation Keen is in. OOC situation, I mean. He's sick/recovering from a long term illness, and that sort of thing can easily make one an attention whore (or seem like it). I don't remember the last time I played a character in that situation, if I ever have. It's going to be interesting to see if I can keep it balanced, keep him from annoying everyone else or myself.
So, all in all, no instances! And yay RP! Eee! Now I must try to relax enough to sleep soon! (Oh, and a drake dropped! Which was exciting! I didn't win, but that's fine and dandy since Keen can turn into one, which is better! Wish![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
itsbacon had won it though!)
