Appearance
Hello all.
As you all can see (I assume you're not blind) the design has taken a great leap forward with many thanks to someone I spoke with sometime ago.
I have a few things I need to adjust, so it becomes more me. But overall I am super pleased with how it all turned out!
So perhaps it's time for me to start sharing more thoughts and ideas. Or should I just post more about what my orc is up to, truly something worth spending more than 2 seconds to think about!
Until next time.

I've recieved threats..
Hello readers!
So I've been recieving these threats from a certain englishman who's not too happy I don't write too often... DAMN YOU CRAZY BRITT!
Okay, so what's really going on? Mentally I'm swinging back n forth, having my better and my worse periods. But luckily I'm generally feeling quite good about things. Heck, could be worse!
So last night me, Anders, Sara and Lubo played a game of Munchkin, which we ended early because everyone was getting hungry, then a game of Risk which ended early because we were all really tired and Lubo had to get up early.
All in all it was a good evening, never boring to get together and have fun!
I can happily announce that the design is getting closer n closer to being finished, I saw a preview of it the other day and I was happily suprised. Looks awesome!
Let's just hope I can write soon again, more useless ranting in the world please!

(A) - Absence and ambitions
Hello there readers.
I know I haven't been writing in a while, but hey that's just me. I could write down all sorts of meaningless rabble no one would find interesting. But then again I like to write stuff that means something to me, thoughts and ideas.
And so here we are, the absence part has been handled, so let's talk ambition. In general terms, ambition is a good thing, but it could also be a bad thing.
Example, a person has an ambition, to study and become something awesome. This is good, good for said person, good for whoever he or she may help on their way or later in life. But let's say said person desires to travel abroad, study elsewhere and leave their life behind for a while. This isn't good for someone else who might have the ambition to find out what could become of them.
But hey, isn't that just how life works? You try, you fail, you move on. Needless to say, I play a part in the previous example, memories of this keeps comming back to me and I always wonder what would've happened if she hadn't decided to move far away.
Now I feel slightly lost, without a path ahead of me. I could go left, I could go right, and they'd take me to diffrent ends. I know what I don't want to, I've always known where not to go, what not to do.
This is turning into a mess, and I don't really know what to write.. I just have my hopes, and it's burning through my skin.

A thought!
Hello dear readers, the few but oh so great ones :)
I had a amusing thought how I'd describe myself to someone who doesn't know me, I was travelling home from work. Sitting on a train, staring into the sunset (usually something very romantic, done on a beach or w/e) I thought that it wasn't so bad anyway, sitting there on the train. Then there's usually some soft, sensual music in the movies with sunset scenes. I was listening to Pain, quite the opposite of sensual music to most, but still my favourite kind :)
So to sum it up, I'd describe myself as a calm person who can settle with what's provided. I don't NEED the perfect things. And I can be both calm but find something good in the opposite, more chaotic things aswell.
It's quite hard to describe in words, but I liked how it made me feel sitting there thinking, so I wanted to share it.
Another positive thing is my overall mood, I feel quite good nowadays, alot better than I've felt the past few years, eventho things are far from ideal, I still feel quite pleased and happy about things :)

-===*<< Sondemon >>*===-
Hello kids, it's story time!
In a room far far away, on the other side of the great city a young boy once lived. He played a game called M.U.D and he was quite crap at it. He found himself bored with his strong warrior he'd named Larsson, which was a typo of the comic book he read, known as Larson. His warrior was strong but it lacked elegance.
So one day our hero decided to create a new character, a stronger and better one! On this day the first version of Sondemon was born, after some time tossing around letters it finally ended as Sondemon en Shaa. After some trial and error it turned out to be a mage, and as months grew into years, so did the character, it became more than just a character in a game, it became a part of our hero.
Sometime during his adventures through the worlds he met a storyteller Malym, who helped to write down a short story about Sondemon, until today only found in the world of AAW, brought to you by our hero, now old and weary.

Bored. This word seems to describe Sondemon more than any other.
In the course of his life, he has experienced the full panoply
of human emotion and knows well that nothing can shock, amaze,
thrill or sadden him again.
Though not of great human age, the story of this once-anguished
creature who walks in mortal form is well known across the land
and though it means nothing to him, a small thrill races through
you to be so close to pure evil even if the recent tales of his
encounters suggest that he now looks more mercifully upon the
inhabitants of this realm.
His form is mostly concealed by the robe he wears, its colour
that of the festering blood of the unalive. Upon the hood, a
silvered design writhes unpleasantly as he moves and beneath it
his unweathered face, surely that of a man in no more than his
middle years, can be seen.
The robe conceals more than a single body. Beneath it you know,
is the Saurian windrider Graug, trapped in eternal prison bound
to the body of this being. The punishment of the dragon Graug,
never free again to spread his wings and fly is also a punishment
of Sondemon, who until his atonement is completed must suffer the
physical ravages of this living tattoo, his body constantly racked
in agony and torn to shreds by the limited movement of Graug.
Travellers in the now almost dead world of AAW may sometimes see him resting in the Temple of Bel or at an altar dedicated to Sadhakas praying to his god. Like our hero, the mage is now old and weary, rarely does he wander the worlds, seeking adventure. But from time to time, the hunger for more power grows too strong...

Delayed introduction pt2
Sorry for the delay, I've suffered from a bad case of crappy ideas of what I should bring up next, about the o so wonderful subject, ME!
Right, first of all thanks Ava for poking me:

WHERES PART 2 OF THE BLOGG
YOU LAZY BASTARD
!
Threats always help when you're not sure of what to write!
So let's write something, last I spoke of where my gaming all begun, and I shall try and avoid boring everyone with more gamestuff, atleast for this time.
So school wasn't all fun for me, I hated studying, but honestly few kids do enjoy it. My problem was I could hardly sit down and do my homework, so I had the bad habit of lying alot. Not in the ways of "My dog ate my homework", but more "It was here, but now it's gone!" and well, not everyone fell for it, it was usually about big turn ins, projects etc. I remember I stole my arts folder from school and thew it in the trash, after having skipped class for about 3 months. That was the first class I actually skipped, during my 9th year in school. And after the 9th year well, let's just say that I had about as much absence as the rest of my class together after 6 months. 2 months before the summer my 10th year I sat down with my dad, teachers and a counselor to discuss my options. I ended up leaving school about 6 weeks before the summer holiday, I worked at a marina, cleaning boats mostly. But I also had the opertunity to help out installing stuff in them, and unwrapping new ones. It's actually quite fun opening a newly delivered huge boat, all wrapped in plastic.
It was great fun, but looking back I wouldn't want to work with it. But I had a good time, I think I only had to suffer one day of rain, the rest was sunshine and when I left, I had a great tan before everyone else had quit school for summer!
I went back to see a guy there a few times during the summer, he was renovating a rescue boat to drive around tourists in the archipelago outside of Stockholm. But I was a kid and easily bored, so I don't really know what happened, I was on holiday and didn't really care.
In the autumn I went back to school, with my friends that were a year younger. I was in the same class as my best mate, and the two of us and a third had a blast, after school we'd go home to the third guys place, play computers and just have fun.
I managed to stay in that class for 3 terms, then I had so much absence that I decided to leave again, and my dad told me that I had two choices, either sort out school or get a job. One month later I was working for Citymail, my second job ever. I started my career as a poolguy, cleaning and opening the local pool were I grew up, it's not that much fun getting up at 8.30am every day on your summer holiday, but it was money and who was I to complain? Anyway, Citymail was ok, but I only lasted a month. I was told I could get my own area as soon as one was available, I saw three come and go before I decided I wouldn't come back. Being february was also something that helped me decide to leave. I mean, who in their right mind enjoys delivering mail in -20°?
So, after Citymail I sent an application to McDonald's. This was in the spring of 2001, I began my employment for old man Ronald in may and stayed for 4.5 years at the restaurant in Täby. I loved the place, but things happened and I left at the end of september 2005. I left because of two reasons, one was that I headed into a depression, and the other was my mother passed away that summer. The two made me isolate myself away from pretty much everyone.
At this time I was playing quite alot, and I fled IRL into the world of various games. This is how I met three of my now closest friends. Ava(Anthony!) mentioned earlier being one of them, Sara another and finally Classe. I've made alot of other friends through the game and I don't regret for a second all the time I've spent infront of the computer.
So after some 2 years of isolation, even from my family I started seeing this guy, just to talk about things, see if it could help. And tho it might've helped alittle, I was already on my way back thanks to my sister. She pushed me forward, made me come out and see her, she understood and helped me out alot. This was about when her first kid was 4-5 months old.
Me and the guy I was going to set up 3 short term goals. I failed at one, the second I can't remember what it was but the third was get a new job. So I applied to McDonald's again, this time closer to where I lived since I had moved out and was living on the other side of town. I still work there and I have done so for 2 years and about a month now, and I hate it!
So this is the present, I work at a place I hate. Trying to find a new job at my own pace. Spending time with my friends both in the AFK world and in the fantasy world.
Is this good enough for now you bully of a britt?!
I will try to write quite soon again, I was asked recently "Why Sondemon?" and I told her the story. But I think it would be an amusing story to tell, as it involves the wonderful world of AAW and M.U.D!

Delayed introduction pt1
Hello there, all four (growing?!) of my readers.
I thought I'd take time to introduce myself, tell the world around me who I am, what I am and perhaps most importantly, why I am. I believe I will post this as a link through my Facebook aswell, attentionwhore as I am, sofar the only people who have recieved a link here are my closest and most trusted friends, and those ofcourse who snooped my Facebook link to my website the last 2 or so days I've had it there. And I think one, perhaps two in VildaBrax recieved a link while I was fooling around with my design. Which ofcourse still sucks, and I don't know what to do with it, and why it's taking so long for my help (Yes, I'm getting help with it....or so I think!) to get around to finnish it!
Sooo, here we are! Let's talk about the wonderful subject, ME! My name is Johan Olof Nilsson, and I am 27 years old closing up on 28, which means I'll soon be 30. Which to me feels incredibly weird, as I feel about 18 perhaps 19 years old. I was born and raised in Täby, north of Stockholm, I have two sisters, both older than me, and only my father still lives.
I'm going to skip talking about my time in school, because that's just a part of my life I don't want to get into. But I will let you know some things that went on beside school. What I liked to do and what I think of when I look back.
As pretty much all around me know, I'm what people would call a nerd, I play ALOT, mostly that time is spent with World of Warcraft (WoW). But where did it all begin?
I can actually remember the first game I ever played, my mom had borrowed a Mac Classic from her job, it had 4 shades of grey, and it had Dig Dug! The goal of this game was that you dug your way through dirt, driving over the gems, bags of golds and cherrys, avoiding the monsters. I have a picture in my mind of the very first map, how the monsters would start in the top right corner and you'd be somewhere down left. It was simply amazing!
What happened after that is still fuzzy, but later we got a Mac LC I believe it was, and I had games such as Shuffle Puck Café, Tetris, Civilization1, Number Muncher, Dubbelmoral, Prince of Persia. Ofcourse we shared these games between us kids around the block, who all had Mac's back in the day. The first game I ever got that was my own, that was bought, was Pipe Dream. Where you would place pipes between point A and point B using various pipes, a puzzle game. I might actually still have the box for it somewhere, if I don't I atleast kept it until I moved to my first own apartment, which was some 6 years ago.
So that was how my computer gaming begun, but I can't remember the first time I played a console game, but I remember the first console that was my very own, a NES 8-bit, I still have it to this day but it needs a tune up if I want to play it again. And I still have my SEGA, and my Nintendo 64 and my favourite, PS2 Limited Silver Line Edition!
These days I spend most time dedicated to playing WoW, and all this time have made me be amongst the better players out there. When my guild and I brought down a special boss (Sindragosa 10man, heroic mode), we were the 600th something guild in the world, I could actually look it up, but let's say 600th exactly. That would have made us players number 6001 to 6010, out of 11 million (or is it even more today?), that would mean we belong to the top 0.1%, to me that's quite cool. I'm not the best, nor do I wish to be. I play for fun, but progress in the game is fun to me, given that I get to share it with people I enjoy playing with. The guild VildaBrax!
More to come in the next part, stay tuned! :)

Have patience with me for a few days and you will get a nice long wall of text to read, I need to tune it up and make sure I'm pleased with it first! It's the delayed introduction post!
20100413
I fail at comming up with a topic today, can't say it's better than my last one either so.. Fail twice in a row!
So let's talk, about today that is. I was up late last night, about 6 hours more than I planned, which ofcourse made most of my day quite worthless. So what did the day look like? Well I woke up first at 7.30-8 something, I was quite blind, newly woken up and without my glasses so I couldn't really tell what the time was, but how'd I wake up? Neighbours were drilling the walls, concrete drilling that early, they ought to be shot or something..
I managed to go back to sleep, and woke up again around 11am, and as the last few days I was in a bad mood. Things didn't get better seeing as I was bored out of my mind. So I took a trip into the kitchen, sorted out some dishes, still some to do tho, 2 more days off of work should do it >.<
After that I took a shower, quite a long one for being me, 20min! During all of the boredom, dishes and shower I was considering not going to town meeting up with Sanna, but I ended up doing so, which was great fun seeing as I haven't seen her for almost a year. But it also made me miss the raid start, but there's more to life!
Back home again I feel quite good, going to my sisters tomorrow to play with the kids and hopefully be treated to some nice dinner (anything I'm served there is nice, even if it's just spaghetti and meatballs).
And now it's time for me to raid, Sindragosa 25 HC isn't very fun I tell you, but she will fall, like all the others!
(Btw, I have 2 steady followers, yay my blogg!)
So let's talk, about today that is. I was up late last night, about 6 hours more than I planned, which ofcourse made most of my day quite worthless. So what did the day look like? Well I woke up first at 7.30-8 something, I was quite blind, newly woken up and without my glasses so I couldn't really tell what the time was, but how'd I wake up? Neighbours were drilling the walls, concrete drilling that early, they ought to be shot or something..
I managed to go back to sleep, and woke up again around 11am, and as the last few days I was in a bad mood. Things didn't get better seeing as I was bored out of my mind. So I took a trip into the kitchen, sorted out some dishes, still some to do tho, 2 more days off of work should do it >.<
After that I took a shower, quite a long one for being me, 20min! During all of the boredom, dishes and shower I was considering not going to town meeting up with Sanna, but I ended up doing so, which was great fun seeing as I haven't seen her for almost a year. But it also made me miss the raid start, but there's more to life!

Meep!
Aparently, caramel Ferarri cars have a positive effect on me when I'm in a bad mood. Yay for that!
It also has a very bad timing, I feel like really putting some effort into fixing my design temporarly, however that'd collide with Stykx heading into ICC tonight, bollocks!
It's sunny outside, so when I walked to the store half an hour ago I decided to put on my summer jacket, turned out to be one of the best ideas I've had this weekend, I only hope the weather stays this way for the rest of my days off, especially wednesday when I'm going to Täby to visit parts of my family.
I was one the phone alot yesterday making plans, if I wasn't talking I was texting half the day, I've made plans for tuesday and wednesday, and some for after the summer when I've been invited to a wedding, thought I'd visit my sister who happens to live in those parts of the country aswell (Yeah, it takes about 4-5hrs to get down the to wedding, and "only" 2-2.5 hours to my sister, it's almost next door!).
So the plan is to do some work around the apartment on monday, meet Sanna on tuesday. Täby on wednesday. Which leaves thursday entirely free, with nothing to do?!
Perhaps I should use a few hours tomorrow to sit on the balcony if the weather allows it, would be very nice! With a book, if I can finnish off Harry Potter so I can move on to something else, I have a few books I got from my moms apartment I've been meaning to read, old worn classics.
Now I will leave you with this final thought:
"Mmm, caramel Ferrari cars! Nomnom"

News!
Soo, 6th of april, what's happened? Well, I still feel a bit sick, staying home tomorrow aswell and planning to work on thursday. They seemed somewhat not happy when I rang in to give them notice, but so what?
Anyway, we had a 10man raid yesterday which was a dissapointment. One of our two tanks didn't show up and hadn't said a thing about it. We ended up taking in an alt, and then 2 others didn't feel like playing, so we had 3 fresh alts/nonraiders. He went down after a few pulls and those who hadn't got the necrotic plague achievment, good for them!
25man raid tonight, and a small progress for the guild when Lady Deathwhisper went down, finally! Now we're 9/12 in ICC (HC) and we should be able to down Sindragosa if we get alittle practise!
So what now? I should start on my Loremaster achievment, but that feels even worse to do than Insane, because it's more spread out. Having to go around zones scouting for quests, yuck! :( So instead I've played alot on my priest 'Lovejoy' and after 3 days at 80, roughly 12 hrs gaming, he's gotten 4 set bonus for his shadowspec, and just a few more items and his mainspec will be done! Then it's time for the disco spec, it's been a long time since an alt of mine has been this fun to play, but there's no competition for which character will stay as main, Stykx has and will be my main for a long time.
Anywho, it's time to go afk and see if there's something else to do!

PS: There's alot of shaman stuff comming up, but I don't really know if I'm gonna be posting news and theorycrafting stuff in this post. Any comments? (The few of you that read this? ;) )

Fever hallucinations...or is it really snowing?!
Sooo, I woke up this morning, feeling as sick as I did yesterday with fever, runny nose and the headache. I get up, walk to the bathroom and glance out the window, and what did I see? Well I was considering the possibility of hallucinations when I saw the snow..
Sick and tired..
Hello there to ya!
I woke up today, feeling what I expected to feel, sick as hell. I've been feeling it comming for a few days and this morning I could hardly breathe. So I rang in sick, sat down with my comp and surfed around on my bookmarked pages, read a few theorycrafting ideas, decided they weren't for me. Checked out the social sites, hardly anything new as usual, except from a mail I've been expecting which made me glad. Rare thing, getting a mail that is! :)
Now when that is all done I expect a long day in the sofa with my bedcover, the zapper and some hot cocoa! Yum.
Cya around and abouts!

ICC10!
Hello there!
I thought I'd share with you a few photos from an ICC10 run I was in this wednesday which allowed me to get my frostwyrm drake, atlast!
I do love the chainlightning, clearly one of my favourite spells!

Good times, ish!
Sooo, I've got to start writing more often..
Which is why I'm writing now, I don't know what to say but let's talk abot what I've been doing today!
I got up at around 5am after 3 hrs of sleep, always fun leaving for work that early.
As I was making my way to the subway I was thinking how fun it would be if the shiftmanager, aka the guy with keys to open the door etc, would oversleep due to the change to summertime we had sat->sun, how good it'd make me feel.. Yes, I love when bad things happens to others, specially ones I don't really care for :P
So, I arrive at work at 5.45-.50 or so, I see the lights in the office are turned on and I can hear the music, so I bang the door without anyone comming out to open up. I try calling the phone in the office, no answer. I figure he's either got his headphones on, or is downstairs changing, or hasn't arrived yet.
At 06.00 the next guy arrives, the one who's supposed to take inventory and the delivery for the day, none of us know where the last guy is, the only one with the key! So we ring him up, when he answers he replies something like "No, I don't work today".. .. .. I saw his name on the schedule, 0600-1500. So here we are, 2 guys ready to work, locked out.
Then I ring up another guy who has keys, that should start at seven, he says he's on his way, he usually has a car and I figure he'd be at the restaurant in perhaps 15 minutes at the most, we wait, and wait...and wait!
While we're waiting, a guy from Air Liquide shows up, there to fill up our tank of CO2, and we still don't know when anyone will show up with a key.
At 06.30 I start joking about how long it takes to fire up the machines and get them warm enough to cook the food.
At 06.40 I start to get alittle worried.
And finally at 06.45ish we get the door opened because someone FINALLY showed up. I make my way in and turn everything on. Normally it takes some of the things 30 min to warm up, and we open at seven, fun! I lost almost an hour of prep, which set me back for the whole day, I figured I was going to have a bad day.
I don't really know why, but I was quite happy the whole day, despite of pain in my back, my legs and my head.
I think it had to do alot with who else was there, and that around noon we opened the big doors and let some spring air in, and the sun was shining.
We had alot of guests, alot of burgers to flip and not really any slow moments, which is good because time passes quicker as we all know!
Finally I get to make my way home, I accompany Sandra to Gullmarsplan, talking and joking about this and that. Finally home I sit down and game some, what else is new? Sara comes over to join me and Anders gaming, and as always she gets picked on and retaliates with pokes and icy cold hands, brrrr!
At 7pm we started our 10man raid to ICC, with only Festergut, Professor Putricide and the Lich King left we expected quite a quick run. After a lol-wipe on Festergut we down him and I get my achievment for defeating him without anyone having more than 2 stacks of the safety buff.
This leaving me with only ONE more achievment to get before I also get my frostbrood dragon, meaning I'll have it on wednesday I believe, WOHO! :)
Then we spent alot of time dying on Putricide due to what I'd sum up as silly mistakes, bad focusing, and too much stressed talk on Mumble(Vent-like). Finally he died aswell on heroic mode, leaving only Lich King left, and we killed him with the achievment to stack up necrotic plague to 30+ (we had ~39 stacks when we got rid of it :P), took us 2 or 3 pulls. Heroic mode next week!
So all in all, despite having pain all over, a bad start of the day and alot of guests at work, it turned out not so bad! I think it was the sunshine as I left work to go home that really made it a good day, I'm looking forward to more sunny days to come.
