2023: My Year in Reading

2023 was a big year for me, reading wise. In mid-2022, I discovered BookTok, which is basically the community of booklovers on TikTok who discuss and share content all about reading. I went from reading 0-2 books per year, to 12 in 2022, to hitting my goal of 40 (and I'll probably finish out at... Continue Reading →

What’s New With Cuppy?

Last time I posted half a year ago, I said I was back in WoW (Dragonflight) and that I'd be posting here more. Welp, in typical ME fashion, that didn't happen. Life is hard, you know? Just as I predicted, I got to max level and then quit. I didn't engage with the tradeskill professions,... Continue Reading →

Off to the Dragon Isles!

It's that time again - the time where all the lapsed WoW players like me pile back in to go adventure for another 10 levels of exploration, questing, dungeoning, and crafting. Dragonflight is OUT and I'm here for it. I got a late start compared to everyone else as I didn't start playing until yesterday.... Continue Reading →

Resurrecting

Oh hey, I exist. You exist! Last year I came back here, posted one time, and then disappeared again. Hopefully I won't do that again! Over on Twitter, we've been watching the site (potentially) die a slow painful death. Elon Musk's purchase has gone through, he's slashing staff and making drastic changes to the site...

I moved to Austin, TX in summer 2007I met my now-husband shortly after thatWe got married in a tiny perfect ceremonyMy 5... Continue Reading →

I’m being a manic gamer lately

My gaming life always ebbs and flows. Sometimes I'll go weeks without playing anything, and then other times I'll get the itch again and spend every evening playing something. The past couple of months I've been doing a bit more gaming than before, and whenever I'm playing games it makes me want to blog. Funny... Continue Reading →

Ding 110! (And I Found A Guild!)

I don't get a ton of gaming time, but I've been making pretty darn good use of it in WoW. Last night, while collecting an herb in Azsuna, I dinged 100 on my main girl, my Tauren Druid.  Now, I've been 110 before on an Alliance alt (go go "Double Agent" achievement) but I immediately...

Remember When I Used To Blog Here?

Ah jeez, it's been a minute hasn't it? Or you know, almost a year..... You know what's interesting -- despite not having a ton of time to play games (I literally sometimes go weeks without playing a game), I still follow the MMO blogosphere religiously. I read just about every post (except ones about EVE, sorry... Continue Reading →

Sayonara, 2016

2016 will go down in record as probably the worst I've ever experienced. All of the tragic celebrity deaths aside, my life went head over heels topsy turvy in ways I never expected. I went from having a moderately decent suburban life with a great little family and a wealth of furry critters, to losing... Continue Reading →
