		<description><![CDATA[I started playing in BC content at the suggestion of a friend that quit playing before we hit 70, I found a casual guild that was helpful and we started raiding Karazhan, I was a cat at the time and was talked into healing and wasnt sure I wanted to do that. Now I level as a boomkin and heal all night and love it.

When Wrath came out thanks to finding a few blogs I was able to understand Resto Healing and gearing better and was decently good at it. Then Ulduuar came out and THE NERF, I went from almost single healinga 10 man normal Naxx to barely making it through 5 man dungeons that before I could heal throgh anything.  I didnt make the adjustment and since it was my only toon quit playing for about 2 years.

A friend at work talked me into playing again about a week after Cataclysm came out on some PvP server but he was almost never on and so I picked up my druid again,  I was able to change and adjust to the new style and enjoy it alot, and in looking for Resto sites to see what I need to do found your site literally a week ago, I am glad you will be around a bit as people in my guild ask me how I do so good lately and I point them to your blog.

I am on a lower rated server and finding more than 4 people that dont stand in poo is hard to do, including guildies. I will never again run current content heroics because of that but I am ok with this.

Thanks for your time in sharing your feelings with us as well as your knowledge, I greatly appreciate it.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve been following your blog via e-mail for ages now and even though I haven&#039;t played world of warcraft in several long months I can quite happily say I still find enjoyment in reading what you write. It&#039;s not just the content that makes a good read after all and even though your insight into the mechanics and going-ons in the virtual world are of little actual use to me I find myself returning anyway.

You have a lovely writing style and I very often find myself able to relate to things from my own time in the game as well as emotions and thoughts that concern more everyday things and the &#039;meta&#039; if you will. Snot and womanspeak-translations included.

When you inevitably do stop blogging about world of warcraft, I will happily read about how Brade deals with your Beru-ness, the colour of your slimy expulsions and how you tore someone a new one because what they wrote got to you. Until then I&#039;ll be around, not commenting often, but happily reading.

Keep it up, Beru!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Believe it or not, I was actually thinking of one (or two) of my replies to you, specifically, when I indicated that I am sure people have been victims of my sharp tongue :)  Text is definitely a very challenging medium.  It&#039;s so easy to say what you want, but not have it mean what you meant!
