Trivial Drivel 27: A day in the Wild and WOW

After a day of Christmas cookie baking with my mother and Christmas card crafting for Turtle Man (he knows I like to craft and figured that extended to cardstock and asked me to make cards for his mother and grandmother), my family (mother, father, brother, grandfather, and step-grandmother) all decided to go the movies.

The movie was more or less my choice, and I chose Wild.

I... quite liked it. In fact, I believe it may be one of my new favorite movies. Reese Witherspoon is utterly phenomenal and the movie itself is laid out brilliantly.

However, for whatever reason, I strongly related to Cheryl for some indiscernible reason: I do not come from a broken home, my parents are alive and well, I have never had a drug problem, have never engaged in rampant, random cheating, never been pregnant, and.. well... I'm just not similar at all to the protagonist, yet I felt her guilt throughout the movie, felt as if I had done those things and had a strong desire to call Turtle Man to apologize for my poor life choices.

I still feel a little... raw, maybe? The movie itself was quite raw and honest.

I came home and at the urging of Turtle Man, took another stab at World of Warcraft. He was so eager: wanting to set up skype and create characters on our own servers of the same class so that we could quest together.

I caved and agreed to be a Troll and named her Avidenhadoh (A combination of Aviendha from the Wheel of Time and "je'i'toh). I'm overall happy with this.

WOW isn't really my game. I'm a solo player and prefer The Elder Scrolls. But.... it's hard to turn down that excitement. And I suppose I love him and all.

I will keep you posted on the future adventures of Aviendhatoh, Fistdontdor (Turtle Man's character), and the fire corgi.

What do you ask is a fire corgi?

Too adorable to handle - that's what.

Ta for now,
