enough is enough
i think i've finally burnt out on World of Warcraft. my paladin is level 50, but i'm not fired up to make that last push to 60. i foresee nothing fun in a future of grinding and all-day instance runs. the story is what kept me going for months, not killing snickertooth hyenas to collect their jowls and turn them in for ROIDS, but that's what the game seems to be at this level. yawn.
the story may have petered out over the last several levels, but my chair ass and wombat have ballooned, and i feel a lot dumber. so instead of playing the game i'm going to get back into the gym and start hiking on the weekends again. see a few movies, catch up on that neglected stack of books from the comfort of my front stoop and/or the nearby park. maybe even do some work on Warhorn.

yeah I never really got into the story even at the beginning, so I felt like it was pretty much "collect 15 monkey paws to be rewarded with a bent copper piece"
not much there to hold my attention (albeit short-spanned). go outside, check out some tits, something. word.

You might also want to give GW (Guild Wars) a try. IMO it's got a somewhat better story than WoW -- plus, no monthly fees...
