			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s not going to happen, but part of me wonders if I should take a week-longish hiatus from Wow. Ironically, my reasons for doing this: TO GET CAUGHT UP ON MY WRITING ABOUT WOW.</p>
<p>What can I say, I&#8217;m crazy.</p>
<p>So, I was leveling my super cute  (actually, really not so cute) female troll mage this evening. Due to some technical difficulties (read: bad decision making), I did some things not condusive to leveling: letting my health bar hit 0 a few too many times, running a 40 minute av where we didn&#8217;t cap more than two towers, spent a good 30 seconds every 4 inutes youtubing a new song, etc. It took me something like 6 hours to power my way through the latter half of zangarmarsh and the first few long quest chains in Nagrand to get grom 64-66, and I ended up not achieving that beautiful &#8220;OMG I CAN FINALLY ICELANCE&#8221; level until 5:00AM, EST. (For those of you keeping record, it is actually 6AM for me, as I am writing this. :S)</p>
<p>Ideally, had I not made a large number of stupid decisions (honestly, spending an hour trying to solo three level 67 mobs who could crushing blow me for 1500hp when I only have 4500 and can&#8217;t be rooted was not my best idea), I probably could have done it by 3:00, which was my original plan. After that, I was planning on catching up on my two &#8220;survey&#8221; blogs that certain guild members have asked me to do before calling it the night at a ripe 4:30am-shockingly early for me. O.o (Note-I have class Mondays and Wednesdays, and work T-Th-Fri. On the days when I do work, it&#8217;s often 12-8, 1-9, etc., which is why I can have a schedule where I&#8217;m up until stupid hours of the morning. <img src='http://shamanonramen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
<p>However, things did not work out as I planned. Upon exiting wow at like 5:15 and deciding to call it the night, I proceeded to read (NON-WOW :O) blogs for like 30 minutes, while pondering what my next step is. For, you see, this is what is on my plate right now:</p>
<p>A) Wow-related.</p>
<ul>
<li>Tank Survey</li>
<li>DPS Survey</li>
<li>Continued Coverage of 3.3 PTR information</li>
<li>EnhSim Documentation Page, I needz 2 make it.</li>
<li>TankSpot guide to PVE Enhancement DPS, I needz 2 write it.</li>
<li>Articles for Big Hit Box.</li>
<li>Articles for a currently-secret new blog, that I can&#8217;t let you know about, but that I got asked to contribute to today.</li>
<li>Planning out my own second blog, which I think has real potential, about issues of gender/sexuality and mmoing.</li>
<li>Getting Aching to level 80. (Honestly, now that I finally have ice lance, which I&#8217;ve wanted for like a year, my drive to push myself to level her as quickly might have died down a bit, which is a very good thing.)</li>
<li>Raiding. Anub hard needs to go down.</li>
<li>Raiding on alts. Notelam, Grazeless, and Darwinism are each just shy of a 4500gear score. Not that gearscore matters, but I want them ready for ICC10 in case we ever do alt runs of that. xD</li>
</ul>
<p>B) School related</p>
<ul>
<li>Revised Proposal for my Shakespare Paper</li>
<li>10page Shakespeare Paper</li>
<li>Shakespeare final.</li>
<li>50 minute lesson plan for sex. ed on social networking.</li>
<li>Urban Anthropology final.</li>
<li>Romanticism 10page paper, no topic yet.</li>
<li>Romanticism final.</li>
<li>Graduate in 3 weeks?</li>
</ul>
<p>C) Work related.</p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;Action Plan.&#8221; (Details of this are boring.)</li>
<li>Resume&#8217;.</li>
<li>Not having-a-heart-attack because my boss of six years decided this week that she&#8217;s leaving.</li>
<li>Planning to get bosses&#8217; job.</li>
</ul>
<p>D) None-of-the-above-related.</p>
<ul>
<li>Feeding the needy on Thanksgiving. (Fun fact: My family hasn&#8217;t had an actual family Thanksgiving for like 4-5 years. We run a food-bank sort of thing every Thanksgiving where we make sure everyone who doesn&#8217;t have the means to feed themselves a Thanksgiving meal gets one. It&#8217;s pretty awesome.)</li>
<li>Exercise moar. If I&#8217;m not the best looking person at <a href="http://www.altadin.com">Sarielle</a>/<a href="http://feralconfessions.wordpress.com/">Keaton&#8217;s</a> wedding next December, I&#8217;mma be pist.</li>
<li>Sleep.</li>
</ul>
<p>I think I can start working on that last bullet nao, right? Since it&#8217;s 6:30 am and stuffs? Also, some fun psychological stuff to think about: did I put the wow stuff first because this is a wow blog, or because the wow stuff is my highest priority. And, if that&#8217;s the case&#8230;how bad is that? xD</p>
<p>Wtb the end of December, pst.</p>
