Larísa's off for vacation

Larísa’s off for vacation. She’s going to Tanaris, sorry, I meant Tunisia, to lead a lazy life on the beach, not touching a computer for a week or so. But The Pink Pigtail Inn will still be open, you won’t starve, since there are a couple of prewritten posts upcoming if Blogger works as it’s supposed to do. It's just that it will take a little longer before I'll answer comments, if you feel like writing any.

During my absence I’d really like to recommend you another blog, a jewel I found the other day. Go and visit Cope, hosted by James Wallis. He has written a hilarious essay in several parts about the geography of Azeroth seen from a purely scientific perspective, trying to make sense out of how the natural laws work. At first he comes to the conclusion that it’s a spherical planetoid with a diameter of 12 kms. Then he changes his mind and argues that it’s flat – possibly resting on a pillar.

I can’t enough recommend it, it’s the most witty piece of WoW reading I’ve seen in a long time, written by someone who clearly has a great knowledge and big heart in the game as well.

I’ll print it out and take it with me to the beach, study it a bit further and see if I can make any sense of the logic of natural science in Azeroth!

See you!

Pre-written posts, how organized! The best I managed when I left the country for my honeymoon was to take a notepad and write down stuff for future ramblings. :)

P.S. Thanks for the well-wishes! Your blog looks fun too, I'll be keeping an eye on it to see what the blogger auto-post-bot does or does not accomplish. ;)

Enjoy your vacation! May the sun shine brightly and may the sand not enter places it shouldn't! In the meantime I look forward to your pre-written posts!

Tanaris = Tunisia = Tatooine.

Thank you for all those nice greetings! It really warmed my heart to read them.

The sun was everything you could wish for and so was the sea... made me wonder though how our poor chars manage to get by in the Tanaris desert... they should faint from thirst and overheating to be honest. (Especially plated classes, I guess cloth wearers get by a bit better).
