Stupid iPhone App
The WordPress app doesn’t (as far as I can tell) let you delete saved drafts. So I’m posting this to try and get rid of it.

All work and no play makes James a dull boy
Through my own fault I did let my OU work drop off my radar for the first month after Hannah was born so I’m a wee bit behind. I only have the final question for M255 to finish and I’m up do date with that, but with M263 I have I think 4 books to read and an assignment to get done before the 2nd Feb. Ouch. This one will be a seat of my pants one I think and there shall be a fair lot of skim reading going on. I am not too bothered if my score drops on that one, the M255 one I’m confident of a good score. Once that’s over I’ll be caught up and I shall attempt to stay on target after that.
So due to all the work I’ve been doing recently I’ve had little play time. WoW is calling to me. My copy of WOTLK arrived today. My character is 68 now so I can technically go to Northrend but I remember going to Outland at 58 and not really being prepared enough. Not only that, but I have only experienced 3 zones from BC so far and feel I’d be missing out as the BC content so far has been quite enjoyable. Plus I need to get all that gold still for a flying mount and the training that goes with that. In aid of this I’ve decided to use my lvl 20 warrior Moonrock as a banking character. I’ve kitted him out in a nice looking cloth outfit and positioned him in the very quiet city of Exodar. I am trying my luck with Auctioneer, finding bargains and selling them on for profit. I shall see how that pans out, it’s another activity along with fishing that I can easily do while holding Hannah, or if I just need a quick break from work.
Website wise I’ve changed the theme. I like the background but it makes everything too dull. I do want to play with it as I like the layout of this theme. I’ve also added a Twitter sidebar. My Tweets have been updating my Facebook status, but the two don’t really mesh well grammatically. Facebook really is for your status, Twitter is a little more flexible. So I shall split the two. I’m sure nobody reads this website anyway, I don’t publish it really. I might start adding a link to it and a Twitter box in my signature on various forums.
Well I suppose I’d better get on with some work, it won’t do itself.
Oh before I go, I’d like to say Lost returns tomorrow night for a double bill.
There’s no other word for it really than *SQUEEEEEEEE!!!*
*phwoooooof*
That’s me blowing the dust off of this blog.
In my defence I have been busy. Our baby finally arrived 13 days late on the 9th December. We named her Hannah. I have blogged about her but on her own blog. To summarise, she’s a perfect bundle of perfection 
I shall endeavour to keep updating here throughout 2009.
In gaming news it’s pretty much all about WoW. Had fun the other night with a few guildies, killed Onyxia and got the “Leeeeeeeeroy!” achievement in some dungeon that I can’t remember the name of. Did both with holding Hannah too.
I have had to adapt my WoW playstyle to take her into consideration. Creating macros so I can click on actions that normally require both hands. Making sure party members know I may have to /follow them while I give her a feed. Oh and also fishing! I have taken this up recently and discovered it’s quite relaxing, and something that I can do with one hand. I have neglected my fishing/cooking skills so it’s been a good opportunity to get those up to scratch.
That is all for now.
