Yay!

So, since I've been slacking on this blog, I think it's time for an official update and for me to frequent here more often.

First off, my Dad is returning on the USS Carl Vinson on Monday. (According to the news.) I don't know or remember exactly how long he's been gone...but I'm very certain that it's been FAR too long and we are more than ready for him to return to us. There is a very cute, very active young lady that I am quite certain he would like very much to meet again. :)

Secondly, Paola and I have relocated. We've moved into the same complex as her family, and everyone seems very, very happy to finally be together again. I, myself, am pretty stoked that we're now back in the "circle" that includes her family and mine as well (instead of way off in the middle of nowhere.)

Next, (for my Wowheads)Perseverance (our guild) has grown very quickly but slow enough to make sure we are adding quality players and people to our ranks. Recently the guild cleared ToC 10 (all by ourselves!) I didn't find myself lucky enough to be on that night, but I am very, very pleased and proud of the members and officers who have all maintained the determination it takes to turn a small guild into one that is capable of such things. My hat is off to you all. The leadership and perseverance (aha!) exhibited by all the members who have been running with us remind me of why I love WoW so much. The personal relationships formed, and the character traits of each and every person are fundamental in the continued success we've managed to achieve.

Finally, (not really because I'm still going to mention something) for those who do play with me and have followed my own progression.....Freegrazer (Resto Druid) has finally hit level 80. I am increasingly fond of playing him and obsessed with becoming the best healer I can be.

As a sidenote - (that deserves more mentioning than a sidenote would) - I'd like to take a moment to thank my wife for all of the wonderful things she does. From supporting my heavy gaming addiction (lawl) to maintaining a house to raising a baby to reminding me to stay on top of my MS shots so I can stay healthy (etcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetc)a big, big kudos to Paola.

They say that behind every great man is a great woman. Never could I see more clearly than here that this is true. (Because deductive reasoning would tell me that since I AM GREAT...she has to be great too........jk)

If you're on my Facebook page, or you know her.......remind her of how fantastic we all think she is.

Until next time.......FOR THE HORDE!
