Not a lot has been going on. The boys are doing great, which is a relief and a joy. I've minimized my contact with D & L for various reasons... He uses me and she is a negative influence.
I wanted to take him to lunch for his birthday present, and give him what I bought him. I bought him a Figureprint of his World of Warcraft character. He came over here after a bike ride. He looked tired. He said he wasn't hungry. He did like his present and was amazed that it was exactly like in the game. I was so proud of myself for being able to surprise him like that. I really never know what to get him.
He weighed himself on my bathroom scale, said he didn't lose any weight. Then we went back into the living room. He grabbed at my breasts and I pushed his hands away. He pushed me to my knees and had me suck his cock.
Now, it's not that I didn't think this could happen. I just wanted to spend maybe 1 hour of non-sexual time with him. You know, sometimes friends might sit and talk to each other. But he fucked me, thanked me, kissed me good-bye, and left. I was disappointed.
In WoW, I left the guild and built my own guild. It only has me in it, but that means I have control. Me and one of D's friends had a falling out. He misunderstood something I said, or blew it out of porportion. It's his problem, not mine. I didn't do anything wrong. However, I removed myself from the situation because it was making me unhappy. I have enough problems; I don't need his problems too. The game space is supposed to be an escape; I won't let anyone ruin the fun for me.
On the positive side, I've been branching out, meeting new people in the game, and playing with them. They have been nicer to me than "the people I know." After all the BS, I won't call them my friends.
Saturday I tried one of the PvP battlegrounds, the Arathi Basin. I got very addicted to it. I played it between house-work, and time really flew. I played it over and over, always with different people. The dynamics were interesting, ranging from groups who knew exactly what to do, to people with no clue. One team was so good we won in 9 minutes, and I don't even know how. One team was so bad that the conversation devolved into name-calling.
As a Hunter, I am not good up close. Some teams were good at keeping them off me, and/or we had healers, and I could stand back, send my pet in, and dish the damage. That didn't happen often. Most of the time, I saw the graveyard a lot. I developed a new hatred for Death Knights. One team was losing, so two of the oposing faction camped the graveyard and kept killing me and another guy over and over until someone came and rescued us. I thought that was an especially cowardly way to get "honor points." When back-up arrived, I was very happy to see those two die.
I had my third VPL treatment on my skin yesterday. I still look a little swollen this morning. I hope to see better results soon, as the results have been very subtle up til now.
That's about it...
