Just in case...

(I've moved this to the top of the blog as it was pointed out to me recently that many people do not read disclaimers. Now that it's at the TOP of the page, you can't blame me if you miss it.)

I'm sure most of you realize this blog is meant in fun and is in no way intended to hurt anyone's feelings, mar my husband's excellent reputation, or to be derogatory towards or defame "the game". This is my subtle attempt at satire, and also a place for people like me who simply don't understand "the game" or it's pull to many successful, middle aged men and women. Please do not send me hate mail regarding the topic, or messages telling me how immature I am for creating such an outlandish blog. Thank you.

An open letter to the many “Dearly Departed” WoW players…

Dear Dearly Departed,

It’s me.  I know we haven’t talked much recently, what with you creating an entirely new Druid Elf and in doing so spending much time leveling him up to make it safely thru the caves.

I thought I’d say hello. 

I wanted to give you a few pointers, you know, subtle hints that I leave for you so that you know you might be spending a bit too much time indulging your sweet tooth with your favorite Candy.

For instance – when I start cleaning the house – and begin vacuuming under your feet to catch the dirt and dust that has accumulated in the last twelve days of straight game play – it might be a good signal to step away from the computer.

Likewise, when I insist that you hand over your clothing – because it’s been a few days since you last moved, showered etc – that’s also a good sign.

Most importantly though – when your children walk in the house and say “Where’s Daddy?” even though you are right there, on the couch for all to see – that might also be a good clue that you have spent way too much time immersed in Fantasy land…just a suggestion anyway.

I mean no disrespect – I simply thought I’d point out the tale-tale clues.

Thank you,

Your loving significant – non-elf – other.
