I am still not sure how I managed to end up here, but I'm pretty pleased with myself.

In which my bank alt terrorizes the people of Northshire Valley while trying to get guild charter sigs so he can have more space for all his stuff:

I cropped out the giant stack of jasper I had sitting in my bags from this bout of "buying shit people put up on the AH for under vendor price," but I think you get the idea:

My server finally had one of those weird glowy, glitched, untargettable people show up in the Stormwind Auction house. I was so psyched I took a screen shot:

And I've finally done that which happens eventually to all of us in WoW.

That's right, I rolled a gnome rogue:

yeeeeeeaaaaaah!

Other notes!
- I have been rereading the Harry Potter series for reasons I'm not clear on, and I just finished Prisoner of Azkaban, and I still love that book so much. Also, man, I forgot how dirty some of Chamber of Secrets was. Percy was hiding in his room all summer "polishing his badge" indeed.

Basically, um, so far the things I feel much differently about than I did the first time I read them are 1. I find Harry kind of charming this time around! I am totally looking forward to CAPSLOCK HARRY, ngl. 2. I'm less fond of Snape, which baffles me? 3. I really like how the parts of fandom I hung out in were like "So, we too are distracted by gingers, would you like to write some Weasleycest with us?" and I was like "Sure" and now I am sort of baffled by that? Like, where did that come from? I mean, obviously it came from the "unf twinzzzzz" place.

Things that are basically the same: 1. Hermione is still the best. 2. I am still really confused by the whole Percy Weasley storyline, and also I am quite fond of him. I am sure there will be more on that later. 3. I really like Ginny, and yet expect to continue to be confused by Harry/Ginny getting very little development. 3.5 by which I mean Harry/Hermione/Ron 4 evaaaa.

- I kind of feel like I want a new fandom? I mean, not as in "I am dissatisfied with playing video games constantly" but in the way where I kind of miss writing fanfic and talking to people on my flist about, um, things? And I'm actually kind of in the mood for a fandom mostly about the slash, but basically I think these might be separate wants and I actually want two things. One is a new fandom, so you should promote yours to me! The other is to magically find all the episodes of The Sentinel online somewhere and go watch them ALL. ALL OF THEM.

- I might be starting a giant, time-consuming project at work. The whole thing is super scary, but also kind of exciting! We shall see!

I MISS TALKING TO YOU ABOUT THINGS ;_; All I've been watching recently is the new My Little Pony, which is incredibly addictive and fun and full of lady ponies with strongly defined personalities that I can ship with each other (I compared Applejack/Rainbow Dash to Troy/Abed to Neigedens, they have the same sort of OTP vibe). And there are almost no dudes, which makes a nice change from my usual fandoms :3

I forgot to add that a couple of eps are racefaily, which makes me :c a lot, but the show overall is fun and strong and makes me incoherently happy.

I had heard about the race issues with the new MLP (I think there was a fandom secret about it?) but the pony designs are super cute, and some of the ponies sound adorable, so I might try to dig up some episodes online or something.
