Due to the coolness of TBC folks and their almost constant willingness to run heroic randoms, I was able to finish the heroic versions of Azjol-Nerub and Gundrak over the weekend. There were a few deaths, and a couple of them were mine, but overall it seemed to go pretty smoothly and my EoT count climbed. It’s still nowhere near the 230 I need, but that’ll come in time. Since it was a random, I also earned a couple Emblems of Frost. I suppose I could downgrade them to EoTs to increase that count, but I doubt I will.

I decided to spend yester evening wrapping up the Dinner Impossible achievement, which requires that you serve a Great Feast in each battleground (not counting IoC). I had already done Arathi Basin over the weekend, so last night I did each battleground one by one. Every single one was a loss.

On Sunday, I tried to do a random heroic with some friends, only to find that I was inadequately equipped.

That instance was the Culling of Strat run I mentioned on Monday. That didn’t help with gear via drops, though I did get my EoTs.

Despite having company this weekend, I managed to earn a number of achievements. I didn’t do much, or it doesn’t feel as if I did. I did my usual Argent Crusade and Frenzyheart dailies. I did a little PvP. I ran through a few instances. I saw a fair number of achievements explode onto my screen.

I watched the movie "Julie & Julia" yesterday afternoon. I’m not going to write a full review — I enjoyed the movie and that’s pretty much the end of it for me. I will say, however, that I’m happy that it wasn’t some silly sappy romantic comedy. Despite the subject matter not necessarily lending itself to such, I find too many movies stray in that direction unnecessarily.
Don’t get me wrong. I love those silly sappy romantic comedies. I just am glad this movie wasn’t one of them.
