Playing Catch-Up: This and That, Here and There

November 29, 2007

It says here that today is Thursday already–a week since Thanksgiving! I’m so far behind, I may never catch up. But I’m going to give it the ol’ bloggage try.
Last Wednesday, before the holiday weekend began, I took a couple hours off work and had a couple moles surgically removed. Public Service Announcement: [...]

We’ve Completed Our Move!

November 27, 2007

As I wrote last week, I acquired a new domain name for the Aerie, and after some trials and tribulation, we’re finally set up at kestrelsaerie.us. So, all the furniture is delivered, along with a lot of boxes. The New Kestrel’s Aerie is now open!
Now all I need to do is unpack the boxes–the [...]

Semi-Famous!

November 26, 2007

It all started here, on TJ’s blog. She was lamenting about the puns dealt out by Fio, her GL. I was obliged to post a comment in support of the punishment (and Ego, you’re still not off the hook!). To which TJ replied here, and had me in stitches (well, considering I had some minor [...]

Some Quickie – and Handy – Pet Macros

November 24, 2007

While commenting on a post by Pike at Aspect of the Hare, I mentioned a combat healing macro I use to keep my pet healthy. Then I mentioned a combo feed/mend macro. Then I decided these deserve an article of their own. Before I proceed, however, I want to credit BRK with the genesis of [...]

Cross your fingers for me…

November 22, 2007

As I posted on Monday, I’m in the process of moving the blog to a new domain. Getting the domain name and webspace, and initializing the database, have been trivial, thanks to GoDaddy. Once I figured out they don’t support WordPress under Windows (on the server) and I switched to Linux, it was even easier. [...]

A Tip for Crafters

November 21, 2007

I have a couple Rogues with maxed Lockpicking. I have a Leatherworker at 370. My Enchanter is in the 370 range, and my Jewelcrafter is maxed.
When I hang out in a capital city, I monitor the Trade channel (especially with my rogues), and when I can, respond to requests. I enjoy opening lockboxes for people; [...]

Content Changes for the Aerie

November 19, 2007

You know how every once in awhile, you need to change the way you have your furniture arranged? Well, I’m at one of those points.
As many of you know, I have been writing a weekly article linking to some of my favorite blog articles of the past week. I didn’t do that last week–instead, [...]

New to the Blogroll

November 16, 2007

So many great reads out there! And I’m soooo faaaar behiiiiind…

Lady Jess — Holy Priest blog with frequent posts, heavy on "what’s happening" and not so heavy on theorycraft. A fun read!

Mercuri— "The WoW Diary of a Night Elf Priestess…" And so it is. Her site is filled with relatively short, but informative and entertaining [...]

Oops…

November 16, 2007

BRK recently posted a digest of Blizzard comments from the official hunter forums.  This one caught my eye (my hunter, Talonis, is a leatherworker, but he doesn’t have the pattern discussed, yet): 
"I was really excited to make a 24slot ammo pouch come patch day, and have a bunch of hunter guildies that had gathered the [...]
