The Shiny Side

As you can see from the donation-tracker one post down (go ahead and look, I’ll wait… all set? Good!), we more than hit our goal for raising money to help Kozzy. I am truly astounded by the remarkable people that I surround myself with. Amazing, wonderful, and GENEROUS to boot!

A giant THANK YOU to anyone and everyone who contributed!

On to the gaming side of things…

I haven’t logged into WoW in over a week. I think my last log-in was raiding a week from Saturday ago… yikes! It’s not for a lack of interest, simply a lack of time. Busy with work, busy with real life… but mostly busy with Going Rogue!

GOING ROGUE! Huzzah! City of Heroes’ first TRUE expansion pack has come at such a wonderful lull in the gaming world. The WoW expansion isn’t set to hit for months, The Old Republic is even further around the corner (c’mon, Spring ‘11!), and there just really isn’t anything new and exciting out right now.

BOOM! Going Rogue drops, and everything hits the fan.

It’s been a while since I was TRULY inspired to make a new character. Sure, I’ve made tons since CoH first launched, but only a few have I sat down and thought out more than simple “Yanno what would be fun/funny?”

I’ll have proper character introductions for some of my CoH toons in the near future. I’ve been planning a series of posts based on them for a while, and this is really the best possible time.

So, aside from some ramblings here and there, I’m hoping to get a few decent rotations on my posts. Dust off For Old Time’s Sake and add a few more to keep things fresh. We’ll see!

Work’s been busy lately, so I haven’t had the posting time I’d like. I’m hoping that if I get myself in a rotation groove, maybe even with some templates, that I’ll have a much easier time adding new content to the blog.

Now, if only I’d take the time to upgrade to Wordpress 3….

I know I don’t get many visitors to my blog, but any of you that do read this… I have a request:

Could you please pass on the word about this fund-raiser? You see, one of my dear friends who I met through City of Heroes (Kozzma) found out that his father is terminal. Like… they gave him two days to a month to live… it’s that bad.

Well, Tessa and I have decided that we’re going to raise money to try and send him to visit his father before it’s too late. We ask for any little donation that you can give… but word of mouth can be even more useful! Please, if you’d advertise this… we’re trying to build funds as quickly as possible, since this is a time-sensitive issue.

I apologize for advertising with a post, but I figured this is the best reason to!
