WTFlux

Something really cool happened last weekend.  I was doing some quests when an officer notified me via whisper:

Hey - they are talking about you in officer chat 

Oh great, thanks for that.  Did I do something wrong?  Offend someone?  WHO DOES THAT?  Then after a bit of agonizing silence, the GM whispers me and says:

Congratulations, we are going to promote you to officer of Bobo’s House of Gank! 

WHOA.  That was unexpected, but really really cool.  It’s nice to have people you don’t know in real life acknowledge your helpfulness, and value to a group of people.

And I dinged 70 with Carterpants.  BUT I’M AN OFFICER IN MY GUILD NOW!  WOOHOO!

Earlier that night I got the quests for Shadow Labs and started looking for a group.  A few guildies wanted in, and all I needed was a healer.  One replied in LFG channel and off we went.  A real life buddy was tanking so I wanted to inspect the priest to see if he was up to the challenge.  One look at him and I started giggling like a girl. 

Nearly full T6 holy priest.

We get into the instance and the priest says- “Just have the tank AoE tank everything, don’t worry about traps or CC just FF”.  Basically the pally tank would aggro everything and we would just zerg them all.  The freaking priest healed BOTH the pets and the entire group without any problems, zero wipes.  My first time fighting Murmur with Carterpants and this dropped for me: Sonic Spear.

So to recap in 1 night I did the following:
Got promoted to Officer in my guild
Got Sonic Spear
Dinged 70
Got my Flying Mount

…then my guild needed my shadow priest for Kara and I got 6 badges.  What a night.
