@!&!@&@!!!

Sorry for the expletives, but that's how I'm feeling right now towards Blizzard! Over the last week I've been cutting back on playing WOW in order to spend time every night grading essays for my part time job. It's a real life daily quest, complete with rewards & theorycraft behind it. Plus there's a huge glut of essays that piled in the queue & I want them all. In fact I'm annoyed at the moment because I wanted to grade some essays before my full time job but I can't since the site is down atm.
So I've kept my WOW playing to leveling rep with the Wintersaber trainers. Which means..Yup I'm back on Neren & I'm sending the greens & firewater to Peda to sell on the AH. I usually put in an hour to two hours on the rep grinding, it's not a lot esp for the wintersaber rep grind but I felt that when WOTLK came out, it would be L77T to have that cat as my mount through 70-77.
Then yesterday I got my draft notice from Blizzard in my email. "You've Been Selected for the Wrath of the Lich King Beta" Of all the times to get it, when I am trying to cut back on WOW to go clean, they send me a Beta invite. I installed it of course, I tried to be strong and resist but it's so "wrathful". Luckily for me I forgot that Blizzard never has the latest client available for download, so I was able to grade essays last night at a good clip as I downloaded & patched & re patched the Beta Client. Maybe sometime tonight I'll be able to login to Northrend but I'm having my doubts. I think this client will still be patching when I get home.
