Oh, HELL YES: Even Koizumi loves the White Sox!!

This looks like a good week for new movies: the new Harry Potter and Walk The Line are both coming out! Maybe a back-to-back viewing is in order? Really, either one would make me happy.

Saturday was big fun. I started two batches of focaccia bread on Friday night: one whole wheat with rosemary, the other white with basil and sundried tomato. So, I spent a good chunk of Saturday baking them both. The end result? Yummy! I took half of each loaf to the party later that night, and ate some of each, and there's still a good bit left. I think I'm a bit too impatient to bake bread all the time; all the time spent waiting for dough to rise doesn't really jive with my incredible lack of patience when making food. But, I definitely want to do it again *sometime*, because it made some good bread!

I did some PvPing on WoW while waiting for things to rise/bake. It was double honor weekend in Arathi Basin, but I couldn't get in there after waiting for over an hour in the queue, so I had to settle for another pathetic routing in Alterac Valley. Why is Alliance so god-awful at AV battles? Oh yeah, probably because all the brain-dead, 12-year-old, lamer-speaking retards play Alliance. ;p Sigh, I need to level a horde character already.

The party? Much fun. It was a birthday party, so we had an interesting ice cream cake that was more ice cream than cake, and played some party games, the most notable of which was a scavenger hunt. We busted out our digital cameras, and had to get pictures of ourselves doing random crap from the list all over town, like holding up a convenience store, or kissing a stranger. There was room for creative interpretation with most of the things on the list, so the end result was pretty hilarious. :)

Bizarre coincidence of the evening: The other Sarah at the party was born on the same day as me! Craziness.

After the hunt, out came the White Russians, and I elected to partake, because I love those freaking things. (Yeah, I like girly drinks, so? ;p) Anyhoo, the first one was fine, but after that one, I poured my own, and subsequently blew right past Slightly Tipsy and into Effing Drunk. See, I have a really poor grasp of spatial relations, and I have no idea what one shot of alcohol looks like when it's poured into a regular glass... so, I just kind of keep on pouring until it, "looks about right." ;p I do feel compelled to point out, however, that I was neither the most drunk, nor was I the first to get drunk. :) Anyway, we watched movies and waited it out until 5am, when I was finally sober enough to go home.

And that brings us to Magical Hangover Sunday. Hur hur hur. ;p I was really sleepy from being up late the night before, and I had a nasty headache and an unsettled tummy. I had planned on going to karaoke last night, but I felt like crap, and when I wasn't levelling my warrior on WoW, I was watching TV and I kept randomly conking out in the middle of whatever show I was watching. I still haven't finished that episode of Fullmetal Alchemist, after the third try.

Hey, the caucasian ain't no girly drink. Or so what if it is... The dude abides.

Also, AV is frickin biased. Goddamn IB is in a womb of NPCs and natural defenses.

Heh, you should go to AV! More people = less personal responsibility for sucking ass. :D

I've been wanting to try WSG, too, but I also suck at PvP... bah. ;p

Well, okay, if you put in enough vodka, then it ceases to be girly. Still, I like a lot of *other* drinks that are very brightly-colored, sweet, and girly!

Also, AV is frickin biased. Goddamn IB is in a womb of NPCs and natural defenses.

Heh, and here I thought it was just me. Blizz totally hearts the Horde, man. :p

It definitely sounds like you're doing better at the end of the weekend than Friday, at least better than that part where you were thinking about how crappy 2005 had been. All nausea aside :)
...and how did you become a White Sox fan anyway?

horde > alliance in PVP

In general the horde kicks the alliance's butt in PVP. Though apparently there are new issues arising due to people intentionally losing in PVP battles.

On my server the horde kicks butt because their top guild is a good month ahead of all the high end alliance guilds, they are better outfitted and nearly impossible to kill and oh yeah love to sit and PVP all day long kicking the alliances butt.

I am not sure why in general but it seems that on most servers the horde beats the alliance more often than not. It seems to show in imbalance of some sort, either in player skill or character skills. I am sure they are working on balancing it.

White Sox are my dad's team, and were my grandma's team. Oregon doesn't have a major league team, and the place I've lived the next-longest would require me to be a Padres fan. ;p The Padres generally suck, and I don't even like California, so Sox it is. :)

Not to be rude, or anything, but who the hell are you? The signoff name tells me nothing...

I'm betting more on player skill than character class skills. It seems like Horde is just better at coordinating with each other, while Alliance players do a lot of dicking around and making turn-ins for rep, or some other self-serving thing, instead of trying to work together and actually win the damned battle.

Blizz seems to love Shammies, though, so who knows? ;p

Oh, yeah. Sorry, didn't mean to post all uninvited and stuff. I'm a former LLgician and I came across your blog(I think through some other site). There certainly is more to SG than meets the eye :) Anywho, I been meaning to get into WoW, but I've been doing the free thang and playing Guild Wars. Yeah yeah. I know WoW is 'where it's at', but I'd have to make the time to play enough to justify spending the dough every month. *sigh* Eventually....
I can also agree with the part of not liking California that much(I'm an OR native but lived in Ventura for awhile).
"...and so kids, that's how Groo came to post a message on SG's blog". THE END

No sweat; I just like to know who's lurking out there, put names to faces, and all that stuff. :)
