I Fought the Hogs and the Hogs Won

I’m sorry. I can’t help it. I usually never get memes or pay much attention but this one is driving me crazy.  The Clash, I Fought the Law won’t stop playing in my head.

So yesterday, yep, Cat ran into 30 to 50 feral hogs in Mechagon. They kinda had a standoff. Nobody knew what to do least of all me.

Cat was SO HAPPY to get the blueprint for the Anti-Gravity Pack even though she hit Revered a few minutes later and didn’t need it to fly. She still loves that thing.

So flying is a thing again, I’m so happy. This is the first time it really hurt questing. I would run, run, run, run to an area to kill 10 whatevers and when I’d get there someone would fly off leaving carnage behind and me with nothing to kill.

I can’t believe Blizzard’s forgotten to create enough mobs so I think in the past I must have been the annoying person flying off. I was much slower getting here this expansion, don’t know why.

Finished Making the Mount the next day! Cat’s been busy, having fun, killing rares in Mechagon and just goofing off.

I asked her what’s she was most pleased about. You got it, her encounter with the herd of feral hogs. Better than Hogger she said.

Cat! Lookout! Behind you! Cat! Okay, at level 120 she’s probably not in much danger really. I don’t know why I even try. We have been derping around the world totally clueless. I mean it’s fun but I’m totally out of touch.

For example this. I don’t know if I make these things up but I thought there was a time when you could set that you were away and when you came back and used the cursor it turned green again.

So I just noticed it doesn’t and to anyone looking I went down the hall for a bathroom break about five years ago and never came back. Did not notice and I don’t think I remembered to change it. Kind of like not noticing Oondasta up there right behind us.

So yeah, Cat and I are just having fun being clueless and goofing off listening to … um demonic music boxes and sightseeing.

And then we spotted the BEST mount! A mount we had to have. It must be new! I will investigate!

Welp. Apparently a vendor has been standing in a cave in Nazmir since patch 8.1, like last December. That’s how oblivious we are.

Okay, I knew better than to go to Wowhead to get those links. I have no idea what is going on but every time I visit them the result is this: 555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555 and on and on until I reboot. What is up with that? It’s a shame cause I used to live there for info.

Anyway Cat loves her frog, it was kind of pricey so although they come in three colors she was frugal and bought just the one. She used her Anglers’ Water Striders her buddy Pat Nagle send her and she’s good to go. Last time I saw her they were hopping across the water towards the two new patch 8.2 zones to make everyone love her an exalted amount so we can fly once again!
