Madness Has Set In

Yes, I seem to have come completely unhinged.Β  I was doing so well waiting for Mists but now I’m just getting squirrelly. While I love companion pets I’ve been happy in the past to just let them accumulate slowly. I’ll occasionally go farm for one of the rare ones with little success, it’s okay though I like Feralas.

I recently realized I hadn’t bought the Hyjal Bear Cub so added him to my collection, then The Godmother had a post mentioning Mr. Grubbs who I had not known about. That made 146, apparently that’s my tipping point. Cat contacted Sasche and asked her to purchase anything she could afford which wasn’t very nice. The Horde characters aren’t rolling in money like Cat is. Sasche could afford one so that made 147.

OMG! Only three left! Checked the AH and the bank alt said it would cost me … a lot. MUST HAVE my Celestial Dragon right now! Here’s the lunacy part, I immediately bought three pets from the Blizzard store. I’m keeping this to myself, I don’t think my non-gaming husband would understand. I spent real live money so my virtual characters wouldn’t be inconvenienced by having to spend THEIR virtual money on their virtual pets.

Yes, I know! It makes sense to me too. But still, I’m not telling him. Pretty sure he wouldn’t get it. Probably should go back to Tyria and stay out of trouble there until Theramore. Yeah, how much trouble could I get into there.

  1. Haha! I totally understand. I was going crazy when I was working toward that achievement. It becomes an obsession that haunts your dreams and you have to have more pets now now NOW!

    Grats on your dragon! πŸ˜€

  2. Ooh congrats on the dragon and achievement. Which 3 did you buy from the store?

  3. Always glad to add to lunacy in whatever form πŸ˜€

  4. grats on your achievement!

  5. Makes perfect sense to me! Grats on new pets πŸ™‚

  6. Your purchase was a present for yourself. Or possibly a make-up present from your husband next time he’d end up in the doghouse. “It’s okay. Your apology will be accepted in the form of this in-game pet you got me.”

    Unless he’s unlike other husbands and never makes a mistake.

    • That makes good sense! He just doesn’t get it though, I’ve asked for companion pets as presents at birthday and Christmas since they came out and he looks at me like I have totally flipped, I think he thinks I’m joking, sigh.

      Mistakes are made, lol, we’re about even!

      • That’s just silly. Everyone knows companion pets make amazing stocking stuffers. Hrm, maybe it just does in our house.

  7. Speaking of Theramore, it goes live this afternoon. Going to try to do it before work, in which case Killthryn and I could use a third to complete the scenario πŸ˜‰

  8. Grats πŸ™‚

    And had I been short, I would have done exactly the same thing :p
