I am brand new to WoW and I mean brand new. I am playing on the "new players" world. I was doing really well up until this last quest. I keep getting killed. I need to figure out what I am doing wrong.


Gallyni is my characters name.


Anyway, I am really enjoying my time on WoW. I am 46 years old, with a 20 year old daughter who is in college. I work part-time as a Home Health Aide.


I am also really really glad to be here.

Bottle my enjoyment of the game?



Thank you so much, it's great to be here. I'd use the banana, to show my enjoyment of the board but I refuse to.

Thank you! The banana is cute, so I'm loath to simply block the image, but it sure is overused.

Are you sure you can take it?

That cat....... Looked just like mine when I showed him the pic.

[Phanx]

You have a cat! Give it to me! I want it!

...

... but no, I can't have it, because everyone ever in my life is always allergic. I need a new life.

Wouldn't work. The allergens come from the skin and saliva, not the fur.

Occasionally I find someone else's cat out and about, and get to pet it and play with it and talk to it in a ridiculous voice, and it's always the highlight of my day. Cats are just the best things.

Could always volunteer at an animal shelter.

Believe it or not, they are full. Apparently so many people want to volunteer that they only accept volunteers at special group orientations that happen every 2 months... and even those have limited attendance and require registration in advance, and every time I've checked (admittedly not that often) the next one is already full. Also, they currently have a statement on their website that they are full on animal care volunteers, and only need volunteers for "administrative assistance, foster care for dogs and cats, fundraising, photography and videography". Finally, I'm pretty sure if I did it, I'd end up coming home and crying myself to sleep about all the poor homeless kitties I couldn't save.

Aren't there "non allergic" cats out there this days? I could swear I've read something like that somewhere.

Not that one.
Scroll down to "Hypoallergenic Cats List".

I'd take an inside-out snake if it were hypoallergenic. Doesn't matter, still a cat!

Yeah, some breeds are known to produce less of the proteins that people are allergic to, but it's not a non-zero amount. If I were the one who was allergic, it'd be a different story, but I don't think it wouldn't be very fair for me to inflict a cat on someone who is allergic and not a cat lover in the first place, even if it's going to produce less of an allergic reaction than a different cat would.

For a while there was some company working on genetically engineering cats that produced none of the allergenic protein, but I think they went out of business.

I have 3 cats myself and love them dearly. However, I won't have this many again, 3 is too many for me.

Genetically engineer a cat? I thought they were already the perfect beast. :-)
