Sunday (4 Dec) - Coming Home

Sunday (4 Dec) - Coming Home

We made it home from Las Vegas without losing our shirts and had a great time even though the weather turned sour on us, with temperatures dropping into the thirties at night plus a couple of days of rain. Of course, it was warm and dry in the casinos. Our large brood of furry friends were happy to have us home again, and we were happy they hadn't destroyed the house while we were gone.

I was never able to get WoW up and running in Vegas, so Happy practically dragged me up to the computer as soon as the cats got bored with the homecoming. Downloading and installing the Patch 4.3 did not take long, but updating all the addons I use took almost an hour. Then Happy went to work.

Happy was shocked at the state of the Auction House. Many items that Happy routinely buys and sells were completely out of stock. Happy made killings on some other items that had been discounted down to under 5% of their value. Happy does sell a lot of stuff, but it was almost as if his absence caused the market to dry up completely. In reality, the likely reason is that everyone is immersed in the content of the new patch and ignoring the AH for the time being. Whatever the reason, Happy made over 6k gold in a couple of hours and restocked a lot of items to sell later.

Once Happy got his work done, Wild checked in with the guild. There were no guild dungeon runs forming, and guildies told Wild that they were mostly using the dungeon finder to run the dungeons as it was faster than trying to put guild runs together. I was too tired to try to run a dungeon, anyway. I am hoping that Wild will be able to get at least one successful run in all three of the new dungeons on Monday. I'd like to have those completed by the time Wild checks in for the guild's first raid on Dragon Soul, the new raid, on Monday night. So, expect to get a full report on Tuesday!
