Why am I out of the house?

I am at work, and I has the Plague. :P

Good news? I've found that Aveeno intense relief hand cream actually does very good in soothing the nice red patches under my nose from the constant stream of liquid snot.

Bad news? I'm now out of meds and have a grand total of $8 in the bank until Friday, and I might need it for the gas tank. I'm debating the risk of a possible over-draw. I think it depends on whether I sleep the rest of the infection off tonight or not.

Oh, yeah, WoW question

Of course, Geekie ran me through the Scarlet Monestary (all of it) before I actually got the quest (which I now have), but I've gone back a few times to try it. So far, I've only managed to clear the one wing up to the Houndmaster (Haven't even bothered with the other wings yet), once while the quest was yellow, and again yesterday when it was green. I'm having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to get those damned hyenas to come at us, preferably only one or two at a time, before we go after the Houndsmaster himself.

It usually ends up that my pet ends up by the master and one hyena, and the other two come after me, so I end up running into the fray so that I can volley the hell out of everything. Problem being is that in that little alcove, there's no room to back up and use my bow (MUCH better damage with my bow) and the other more destrutive abilities, and I can feign death and let Elder take the brunt of it (he can down two and a half all by himself before it gets ugly. I'm so proud of him. :) ), but of course, as soon as I pop up to Mend Pet him, I get attacked again, and it goes to hell from there.

I don't have any set rotation (no macros), and staying out of range also requires being 'out of sight' in regards to using Mend Pet on Elder, so staying out of the little enclosure isn't an option thanks to that stupid wall. I know the easiest solution is 'wait until it's grey for you', or, alternatively, 'Just pug it!', but I'd like to do it on my own...preferably when it's 'in range' for me.

I love my cats

And they apparently love me. :)

How do I know this? Yesterday, both of them squeezed into the very small 'spaces' on either side of my leg while I was dozing/watching TV in the recliner for several hours...even though normally they can only stand being that close to each other for maybe ten minutes before someone has to object and start a swat-fest (which usually ends with at least one of them vacating the area), not to mention, Foot is not much of a lap cat, but...there she was.

Last night, they both curled up next to me, purring, all night.
They napped on the bathroom rug while I took a bath.

When I curled up in the chair-and-a-half, Foot tried to curl up next to my head, and when that didn't work out too well, curled up in the computer chair (normally Ula's spot) next to where my feet were hanging. Ula stretched out in front of the chair. And more purring.

As of right now, I'm back in the recliner, with the laptop on my lap (no room for cats), but both of them have picked sleeping spots in various cat beds so that they can keep an eye on me...which they do often in between the bathing routines going on.

I do believe I'm surrounded by furry little nurse maids!
