Needless to say, I suck as a blogger.
Still going to blog though, thinking it'd a good idea in the few minutes I have to write. In the end, I only write 15 paragraphs and let it fester in the drafts box, only to come back months later and delete a potentially good post.
Here I am, again.
I just had a great conversation with my mom about taxes and her clients. Those Tax Act commercials that say "So and so thinks you need to be a genius to file your taxes..." Yeah, a client said "yes" and then it asked her for a mortgage certificate... those don't really exist the way most people think... but the client still had to call my mom (a realtor on the side of her tax business). Lady calls her mortgage company, again, they tell her there is no such thing as a mortgage certificate. Mom gets another call from her asking where she can find it. I personally would have said "You want to file your own taxes, you need to learn the material just like I had to. Bye!"
That is asked so that you say "No." instead and file your taxes. Later you get pinged and you owe the IRS. They have 3 years to ping it, 10 years to get to it after you are pinged. All that time and you are owing more and more. The IRS will never really need financial help (but good luck trying to call someone, cause they stopped answerinb their phone). Btw... no mortgage ceftificate... buuuut, you can out smart them with a 1099... cant recall which one... You bought a house? Then you should receive one.
Totally irrelevant to the theme of the blog. Just thought I would share that.
On topic, I would like to announce that Blizzard has sent me an alpha invite.
*brag brag brag dance brag*
I only received it last Friday, but found out on Saturday. Had to wait for it to download, of course, and all day was my nephew's birthday. Had fun at the Crayola Experience, but was not worth the money. They need to rethink the price for kids...
Anyway, I got to play for a little while. First night, I finished the demon hunter quests. I can't really say I accomplished much other than getting my fingers to avoid pressing 1 which is default for "Fel Flash" or whatever. Nothing beats punching your target and suddenly throwing yourself across about 10 yards wondering if you killed it to found a bug.
I am struggling a big with it because the only melee I play regularly is RET pally. Otherwise, I'm on ELE sham or BOOMkin. Jojo and I haven't PvP'd on WoW together in a while. That was really the only exposure I had to playing melee. Demon hunters sure are sexy though. There is a lot of potential for it, but the tiny amount of exposure I have so far doesn't make it feel like its OP so far... The best way to tell it's going to be OP is if a terribad player like me is making it look good.
After I ripped through the starter quest line, I found myself trying out survival hunter. Omg I suck so bad at it... I really need to review some dps guides on it. I remember hunters had some melee capabilities, but s**t just got real! I really like harpoon though...
I played some of BOOMkin too. It's quite a difference, but I really like its changes so far. Instead of mana, you use Astral Power. Everything about it makes sense and I love it. Only problem is... I lost her in a "hole" and have to wait for GM to move her out of it. I plummet below the ground and instantly become lost or off the grid. A forced disconnect takes you to log in screen. If you try to log in again, you see yourself falling again, then back to log in screen... *sigh*
I haven't been able to play these last couple of days because I am an hours drive from my computer. If I didn't have to work, then I would be playing. That's ok. 3 days all to myself when I go back!
Going to bed now...
