I may have broken my website somehow so I’m not sure when today’s post will be going up. If you’re reading this the good news is my website isn’t all broken. Just partly broken.

Checking out Kite, which is Kagi’s news aggregator. Very simple and easy to set up. You can keep an eye on the news you’re interested in without being overwhelmed by it. Very cool. You can even add it as an RSS feed.

I managed to make enough gold in MoP classic to buy myself a WoW Token. Way easier to make 11K in classic than 300K in retail right now, though I guess it’ll depend how many people keep playing classic. I also played a bit of the new retail patch, but I think I’m having more fun questing through MoP.

I’ll likely return to New World before the October content drop. But for now I’m having fun being zen in Pandaria.

I’ve enjoyed doing laundry lately, and not in a productive, getting things done kind of way. In a “this is really fun” kind of way.

It’s weird and it won’t last but I’ll enjoy all the clean clothes in the meantime.

So when I said I was going to post here every day in August I guess what I meant is that I will post here at least 31 times in August.

Happy to report that my blogging adventures have inspired at least one person to start blogging (livejournaling) again. My new goal in life is to get all my friends to start/resume blogging. Join the revolution.

I spent all of yesterday playing Mists of Pandaria Classic and I have no regrets. WoW Classic is very relaxing for some reason. But as soon as I got to Pandaria on my newly-boosted level 85 Orc Warlock, I realized I had to turn around and go back to the old world to level my gathering professions. I don’t miss that part.

I watched some of Dark Winds S3 while flying around gathering ore. Today I might listen to some podcasts. See? Relaxing. I’ll either listen to Astonishing Legends or And That’s Why We Drink. Probably the latter.

My bulk order of socks arrived and I took out all the other socks in the drawer, stored them away in a safe location (far away from the laundry vortex) and replaced them with the new socks.

I suppose this isn’t so much defeating the laundry gnomes as it is resigning myself to paying them sock taxes every once in a while, but at least I don’t have to waste time pairing socks since they’re all the same.

I finally got around to ordering ALL the socks. They should arrive tomorrow.

The sock gnomes may have won the battle, but they won’t win the war!

I’m convinced there’s some kind of vortex in or near my dryer that opens up during loads and sucks up socks and wool balls. I’m down to one wool ball. I also don’t have a single pair of matching socks anymore. How does this happen? Is it a curse? Is there some kind of portal in my laundry room? Have the underwear gnomes expanded their business ventures?

I have questions.
