I’m a man; male Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Expressing my emotions is not something that comes easily to me; I don’t inherently rely on a support network; and I’m hardwired evolutionarily into saving communication for conveying meaning; and not as a social grooming activity.

So, it’s sometimes difficult to actually say anything on a blog like this. I mean; my circumstances rarely change in any way that anyone who reads this could possibly relate to. I mean; I’ve started doing a few more hours at work, which is good, but then I don’t think any of you know that I wanted more hours at work.

Should I start postng records of my World Of Warcraft activities? Recently, I think Cara’s been putting in more hours than me; and certainly getting more done. Part of that is probably because I run almost exclusively on RP-PvP servers, so every now and then it’s nice to relax and wander into a city to actually talk to people…before you get viciously mauled by a raid. It can be fun, though. Adds to the whole ‘immersion’ thing when you run characters with stories, and personalities, and interpersonal relationships. Although some of the RP backstories are a little…far-fetched. On any given Silvermoon day, there must be at least five vampires and ten half-demons, each with suitably elaborate and unlikely stories (and each claiming they are the only one of whatever they are). Most of these, I suspect, are mainly for the purposes of initiating cyber-sex…and since my main is a blood elf female, this is sometimes very, very bad.

But, yeah; if you do play WoW, consider playing an RP realm some time, and getting involved in the RP. It’s a different kind of experience, but often a rewarding one. If you choose the Sporeggar realm, look for Elaethin, or install the MyRolePlay mod, and look for any player whose ‘house name’ is House Hawkmarch.
