I can stop whenever I want

I bet you’d thought I’d forgotten all about you, and was going to continue with lame updates that were just reblogs of other peoples’ far more inspired efforts. Well I didn’t, but I have been incredibly busy. Playing WoW. Well not just that, though it was the focus of the weekend. I’m getting ahead of […]
