Well, Hidely-Hodely There, neighbor! I was glad to hear from you, ******!

Thanks so much for replying. I thought, after that whole, WoW verbal eruption I sent, you would have thrown me to the wolves (or Orcs or Undead or whatever it IS you would have thrown me to, if we WERE in Azeroth *reaches up, methodically, only to push up, on the bridge of her black framed glasses that had started to slip down her nose. Followed by a maniacally uncontrolled cackling laugh*). Hmm, you said you are always up for intelligent conversation? Wasn't aware my words even constituted as that! LOL *to be said in a Triumph The Insult Comic Dog voice* "No but seriously. . . I kid, I kid."

Well, what's this GS Lounge union about? I would LOVE to join. Pretty sure anyway. I mean, I'm sure you won't hunt me down, like a 3-legged dog and shoot me, if I decide to drop out or anything, right? Now, when I say hunt me down, you also know I am including within my definition, as if you were to PAY someone to hunt me down as well, O.K.? Just so we are clear. *peers around nervously, as if she hashad a previous incident, of this very same nature, tostir upsome underlying but already existent paranoia within her*

What did you think of the blog idea? Just me ranting in these e-mails? Overkill, played out or just plain lame? What? C'mon then! Anything? Hell, who cares, at least you and I will read them. Yes. . . WE will still read them, we will. We will. *stares off into the distance while thinking of an episode of Ren & Stimpy, where they were trapped in space and. . . .cue Ren's voice. . ."Captain's Log, day. . "Ren began to believe that all Stimpy wanted, was his LAST precious, creamy, ice cream bar - which was really just a nasty old bar of used soap*

Maybe after sometime or after not very long at all, you too, will stop reading and I will be left alone again. Just as I was before I came here to GameSpot. Maybe I'll even "write" to you after you HAVE stopped responding. Sometimes Imight drift in and out of remembering that and I will ask you questions in which I honestly believe I WILL receive an answer from you. I'll have enough wit sometimes to KNOW that I haven't spoken to you in years and I will simplyjot downrhetorical questions (none of that, The Meaning of Life, kind of stuff, you know?).

It is getting late and I should sleep. I bet you Chuck Norris isn't getting settled into bed right now. Although he IS probably snuggled up in his Superman pajamas (just as Superman is fast asleep in his Chuck Norris jammies). HmMmMm... *wondering if she has scared off your interaction YET* Hope to hear from you soon, man. Until then. . .

Take care, Be good and sweet dreams, sleep tight. Don't let the bedbugs bite.Seriously, they are running more rampant than one would think. Look into it. It's disturbing.period

(This e-mail was written to my first message received - responding to one sent from me - here at Gamespot. Who knew that joining a website, simply to add ONE comment to a forum posting, could bring so much to the table?)

Hi there ******(I still am completely enthralled with your name, seeing as how my main toon is from Grand Hamlet or Darkshire I SHOULD say. She is also into the reading about the lore of the area as well. The Ivory Spire of Karazhan, Medivh, the fabulous shaped plot of land he decided to build his castle on, the whole caboodle. Yes, even his faithful help who stood by ole' Medivh. . *clears her throat* "ahem. . ******!".),

It's me again. As I am sure you can very well gather yourself. Anyhoo, I am pretty stoked I got a reply so quickly! Goes to show you what sort of PARTY ANIMAL you are dealing with here, huh? Some chick who checks her messages for a video game forum website? I will refrain from making some sort of comment about how someone, somewhere is thinking of me and holding their hand to their forehead, in the shape of an L (or not).

Listen, you said something about NOT being able to mention WoW in RL. Why so? Wait, wait, let me guess, ok?

1) Your friends and immediate family believe you have a little "problem" with the game. A mere lack of the ability in defining game speak and social drama that may occur in Azeroth, with that in RL, here on Earth? Huh?. . . or maybe. . .

2) Your spouse or BF/GF is sick and tiredof hearing about the game, RP, gen chat comments, your guild developments, toon leveling, recent achievements or new companions earned and want to spend more quality time with you?. . . Yeah? Am I even gettin' warm here? Hmmm?

3) No one at your work NOR your home know WTF you are talking about 79% of the time?

Any of those sound familiar? Sheit, I mean, there was a time when I heard the train pass at work, from my office, I would close my eyes and just SWEAR that I was at the auction house in Stormwind. Heh heh heh Well, I haven't played in a few weeks myself. I feel the want to log on but for whatever reason I find myself easily distracted by other websites involving either lots of reading or plenty of video content. Youtube is a biggie of course. It never ceases to amaze me how many different things one can find there. Anything from homeless schizophrenic people rambling aimlessly in line at fast food restaurants, old school cartoons that have been seamlessly converted to erotictypes of hentai flics, stunning International shadow puppetry competitions, to local bands and skater boys all trying to "make it big". Whatever the reason, I have yet to log on again. I want to. I MISS all the silly RP and my few friends. Just haven't.

I simply wanted to write ya back and see what else you might have to say. I am really excited. This is not only the FIRST forum at ALL I have joined but you Sir, are the very first responder to my meaningless gripes in the virtual world, my friend. I sure hope I haven't scared you off - yet. LOL

Hope to hear from you soon. Until then. . .

Take care, be good and NEVER buy shrimp from the side of the road, EVER.period

P.S. I think I just wrote my first blog. I might decide to post them as letters to people.

Lame or what? Let me know? Heh heh heh
