GUEST POST by LINDA CREE Climate change is on everyone’s mind. The media, scientists, and policy-makers talk a great deal about it, and each day seems to bring a news story about melting glaciers or rising sea levels. Politicians [...]
Fourth of July My Chicago family, son David, daughter-in-law Mel, and grand teens, Jane and Max flew to Portland to spend the fourth with me. Jane, a funky art student, and I combed the local thrift stores and took in the Katherine Bradford exhibit at the Portland Art Museum, while Max and I binged on the Netflix detective series, Lupin. [...]
GUEST POST by MICHAEL STEINMAN A self-confessed dinosaur, I have always liked telephone conversations, especially the old-fashioned kind: two friends, one (me) on a landline, perhaps drinking tea, leisurely describing events but more endearingly, feelings. The telephone handset made possible the kinds of intimacy one might be shy of having [...]
Friday morning, I was driving with the car radio on, blissfully contemplating my summer weekend when my reverie was interrupted by a news flash that the Supreme Court had declared Roe v. Wade unconstitutional. I screamed in outrage before erupting into tears, crying for college friends who had back-alley abortions when abortions were illegal. [...]
GUEST POST by MARGIE CAMPBELL I’m going to tell you a secret. It isn’t something that I tell readily these days. It is something that has been a burden lately. Perhaps if I share it with you, I’ll become more comfortable with it. So, what is it that causes you so much concern, you may well ask? Okay, here it is—some months ago I turned [...]
A Riveting Documentary To mark June as Pride month, take time to watch the riveting documentary “My Name is Pauli Murray” on Amazon Prime. Murray (1910-1985) was a legal trailblazer whose ideas influenced RBG’s fight for gender equality and Thurgood Marshall’s civil rights arguments. She was a non-binary Black lawyer, activist, poet, [...]
I grew up in the 1950’s when gender roles were strictly defined. My mother, like most women of the era, stayed at home, focusing on creating the perfect home and perfect children. My father, like Don Draper in “Mad Men,” spent long hours at the office, mainly seeing his kids at the dinner table and on weekends, when he wasn’t catching [...]
Ram Dass: “If you think you’re enlightened, go spend a week with your family.” This quote came back to haunt me after spending Memorial Day weekend with my family. As my plane descended into Chicago’s O’Hare airport, I was filled with anticipation for my granddaughter’s high school reunion and for our first family reunion after [...]
Granddaughter, Jane Last weekend I flew to Chicago to attend my granddaughter, Jane’s high school reunion in Oak Park, a suburb of Chicago. My youngest son flew in from LA to join us. We hadn’t all been together since Covid descended on the country. The graduation ceremony was held in the school’s football field with family and friends [...]
GUEST POST by JANET WEIL I ran track and cross country in high school. With Nikes bought from the back of a salesman’s car laced onto my feet, I dashed and panted across the finish line. After a long run, group showers were a delight – the rush of warm water down my legs, the gossip and giggles of my teammates, the pleasant lethargy [...]
Given all the ageism and sexism smacking older women in the face aging can be a dismal state for many women. Mary Pipher to the rescue! In her book, Women Rowing North, Pipher makes the case for a happy old age: “Happiness depends on how we deal with what we are given.” Piper interviews older women from all walks of life who have triumphed [...]

Yes, World of Warcraft, there are girls on the internets -- gaming insights from the perspective of a 24 year old girl who's been playing WoW since launch. Girl Meets WoW's purpose is to inform, to amuse, and to entertain. Think of it as the bastard child of Thottbot and Murky the tap-dancing baby murloc. Or don't. Honestly, murloc outbreeding is a frightening concept which this blog would not touch with a ten foot pole.

A tip of the hat to our friend BBB , who interviewed my awesome guild leader Featherwisp for today's Shifting Perspectives column at WoW Insider. The topic was the aforementioned Annarchy-sponsored flightform flashmob on Dark Iron, and if you ever wondered what would happen if Alfred Hitchcock met World of Warcraft a la The Birds , you owe it to yourself to read this piece. Okay, okay, or you could just ask the undead rogue BBB interviewed about his experience being stared down by several dozen unblinking birds. "MOONFIRE MOONFIRE MOONFIRE x30, I die," does pretty much sum it up. In other news, for work today I'm summarizing some articles from this month's Harvard Business Review, when I come across this surprisingly accurate picture of the leadership challenges of MMORPG raiding :

Those crazy druids are at it again. Last time, 10-druid Karazhan . This time, it's a flight form flash mob. What will they think of next?

Can I make up for a lack of bloggery by recounting a feat of sheer awesomeness? Not likely, but here's something you should hear about nonetheless. Last night a bunch of paladins in Dark Iron's Penny Arcade Alliance got together and full cleared Karazhan. (Shoutouts to Hunam, my favorite wannabe rogue healer, and Ruttiger in the center, who has not one, but three level 70 paladins on Dark Iron.) The only real obstacle they ran into was Opera, where I'm told Murphy's Law dictated Romeo and Juliet, so they had to bring in a rogue to kick things in the face. What's that, you want to know how they killed Aran with no interrupts? Ten bubbles ate that pyroblast, my friends. Ate it with relish.

I just got a [Phoenix Hatchling] in heroic MrT! He is so cute! I will hug him, and pet him, and squeeze him, and pat him, and pet him, and love him forever.

So, is anyone else getting really curious about the all-out warfare that's bound to break out in Lower City in a later patch? I'm going to be really disappointed if a proper ogre army doesn't show up. Griftah's story seems to have come to a dead end with the opening of ZA and his return to Shattrath, so I really hope Cro Threadstrong vs. Granny Smith lives up to all the buildup.

My guild really wants Magister's Terrace to be called "Mr. T."

So, I've been making a huge push to get my shaman to level 70 before patch 2.4 hits. This week's screenshot is from Blade's Edge earlier in the week, back when he was 68. I hit 70 yesterday at 10 days, 3.5 hours, which I figure isn't so bad since a) I wasn't trying to keep a pace, b) I have a tendency to stick him in an in and wander off without logging, and c) a fair bit of his Azeroth leveling happened before the leveling changes in patch 2.3. The best part about leveling my shaman, in addition to the sheer fun of whacking things in the face and having a short-timer interrupt, has been leveling on rested XP from 61-70. That just rocks. I've also had a great time leveling enhancement, and will probably keep the spec as I finish out most of the early quests -- I have a tons more to do in Netherstorm, and I haven't even touched Shadowmoon Valley. But the other big push this weekend has been to get my Kara key. Sure, they may be unnecessary in just a few short days, but in the meantime, our Monday newbie Karazhan raid needs a second healer, so I volunteered my undergeared self to the task. Will I survive? More importantly: will my raid survive? I'll let you know.
