[CS Lounge] Ahh home, let me come home~ 🎶

We thought about stroganoff as well, but I didn’t feel like going to the store to get the ingredients we were missing.

So, we just made hamburgers instead. Cut up some red potatoes, oiled & seasoned them, baked til done. Even cut up some peppers to go along with our meal. All in all, it was good.

Neither of us were able to finish our meals though, so we have some for snacking later.


In regards to movies, growing up my faves would have been John Wayne westerns and Planet of the Apes (which I used to watch at drive-in with my grandfather). He was also a huge John Wayne fan, hence my love for those movies as well.

Star Wars movies are ok, but I was more of a Trekkie growing up.

But, for my all-time fave movie, that goes to “Wuthering Heights” with Merle Oberon & Laurence Olivier.

I saw Star Wars with my wife and oldest daughter when it first came out, great movie. That, Princess Bride, The gods must be crazy, and Fifth Element are all great movies, but a redo of a first view? The Empire Strikes Back.

When the Star Wars prequels were about to be released a local theater chain ran a special where all three of the original movies were run one after the other. My youngest daughter went to it with some friends, she said the best part was one of her friends who had never seen any of the movies and had never cared about them or the genera. She (the friend) was shocked when it was revealed that Darth was Luke’s father, then upset when Yoda died, et al.

EDIT: Never seen any of the Jurassic Park movies, only seen Big Trouble in Little China on TV, but never pass up a chance to see it again.

My parents saw Star Wars in a theater that no longer exists. Four hour line and they got back in to watch it again.

W00t, finally got my 400th mount (thank you Nightbane).

Now I finally have matching sets of all 3 of the colors (purple, green, orange) between the Phoenixes ( Corrupted Fire Hawk, Felfire Hawk, & Pureblood Fire Hawk) and the Talonbirds ( Voidtalon of the Dark Star, Frenzied Feltalon, & Flametalon of Alysrazor).

I didn’t even know you could still summon Nightbane! Well, that’s added another run for me…

On the Mythic version of Return to Karazhan. You need to do the timed run in order to be able to talk to Medivh to start the summons.

Yeah, I looked it up, and then conned Dauth into running it with me.

I spent the last eighteen hours trying to think which movie I’d like to see for the first time again. The best I can come up with is Love Actually.

I’m just sitting here thinking it would be even better if watching it didn’t make me all weepy and maudlin, then I realized that’s pretty much why I watch it. Once in a while, I just need the feels.

I could throw a Gnome at you. They’re hard-headed so you’ll feel it. Be a lot cheaper than the movie, free.

Not much on collections actually, 401 unique pets, 58 Mounts.

When I have a pet following me it is usually one of my Spirit of Competition.

The mounts I actually use are the Dark War Talbuk for ground, Corrupted Dreadwing for flying, Sea Turtle for water. For occasional special circumstances I’ve used the Warlord’s Deathwheel and Fossilized Raptor, and when I need a vender the Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth.

I have about 15 ti 20 set on my favorites and oft times just summon a favorite.

I do have my water strider, sea ray, and mammoth on the bars for easy access though. Never know when you will need to vendor/repair, walk in water, swim fast in water haha.

I also have my steelhead devourer on my bar because j was so proud tk get the plans for it haha. My violet spelling and the digital deluxe raptor just left the bar, but my little piggy is there. I flipping love the Hogrus mount.

My last mount quirk is a say Donley, lime Shrek, any time my favorites pop Lil Donkey out haha

I never went out of my way to pursue mounts or pets for collections. However, I have a lot of characters and each character has their own specific collection of mount and pet they are most often seen with. (Maybe that’s what “sells” me on Heroes of the Storm - all the loadouts I have on all the characters.)
