Over the years I’ve slowly been putting together a set of good quality stainless steel pots and pans from Paderno as they go on sale. At the moment I have:
What are some other useful sizes/types I should get?
Just an update on my phone – I’m currently using FroydVillain 1.4.3 instead of CyanogenMod. Both are based on Android OS 2.2, but FroydVillain just has more working things. Like the camera. And it does seem somewhat faster when switching screens etc. A more optimized kernel, I guess.
I’ve hardly been playing WoW at all in the last few months, but I figured I’d write something about it. Between starting to get bored with the game and having much better things to do in real life on the weekends when I’m off work I haven’t played much. I’ve already preordered the collector’s edition of the Cataclysm expansion though. Mostly for all the extras in the box, not so much the in-game pet. I wish I had started early enough to get the CE for the original game. I did get it for The Burning Crusade, but for some reason I never for Wrath of the Lich King. I think it might have been due to financial issues at the time. But I’ve seen it around for $150-ish so I might pick that one up at some point anyway.
I doubt I’ll be doing any raiding in the expansion, maybe occasionally at off times at most. I’ll probably be doing some actual casual sort of playing for a change :) Exploration, achievements, things like that which don’t require a big block of time to do. And likely some PVP with friends in my guild. From when I first starting playing until half way through the first expansion, my main (and only character) was my hunter. Then I rolled a priest and that has been my main pretty much since then. Lately though, I had been playing my druid more, and then actually did things with my hunter again. I’m thinking that my first 85 is going to be my druid, and then my hunter. No real plans for leveling after that. At the moment I have something like six 80s on my main server, and a couple more on other servers. A little insane, really. I don’t play most of them even when I do play the game. It was nice to level them up and see how much I like playing them all, though. I’m slowly leveling two more characters to 80 that are currently in the low 70s. One 60 I have (from recruit-a-friend leveling, I didn’t actually play it much) I’m planning to delete and reroll as a Worgen with the expansion, and the other 60 is my bank alt which may or may not get leveled at all. Without a great girlfriend, I’d probably have them all at 80 by now (other than the planned reroll), and melted eyes to go along with it.
I’m looking forward to a more casual sort of playing :)
For the record, my current list of characters:
Terenas (it’s been really handy to just be known as “Dard” on any of my characters there) Dardelyn (80 Priest – Holy/Shadow) Dardia (80 Druid – Balance/Resto) Dardremar (80 Hunter – Survival) Dardremis (80 Shaman – Elemental/Resto) Dardzuul (80 Death Knight – Frost DPS/Blood DPS) Dardique (80 Mage – Frost/Arcane) Dardlet (70 Paladin – Retribution/Holy) Dardelek (71 Warlock – Affliction) Dardzen (60 Warrior – Will be deleted to reroll as Worgen) Dardina (60 Rogue – Bank Alt in my own Bank Guild)
Korialstrasz - Kethali (80 Druid – Resto)
Hyjal - Nazdeek (80 Shaman – Resto/Elemental)
And some other assorted low level characters on those last two and other servers.
Yes, that’s too many level 80s :)
Since I got my phone shortly before going on vacation, I never bothered to check into rooting it until yesterday. Telus seemed like they were never going to get the Hero updated to Android OS 2.1, still stuck on 1.5 – which limited me for the apps I could install, and other OS features. So mostly following the directions here (I had to use a different RUU image from what they said), I’m now using VillainROM 12 and so far things seem to be fast and smooth. It was a pretty easy process, nothing crazy to do at all really. I might try out other custom ROMs, but I like how this one is pretty much the same as it uses HTC Sense (which I think is nice).
