Happy Birthday to me
I got the recipe
Ok, so my poetry skills aren’t nearly as leet as Trout’s epic production. Oh well … I’ll let the picture speak for itself.
At 41/45 fragments, with an Uldum dig site on my map, I actually jumped at the chance to help a couple of guildies out in Nagrand instead. Not sure whether I wanted to put off the impending disappointment, or maybe prolong the anticipation. Probably both.
Now comes the long process of transmuting 11 more truegold … which will probably only happen once every fourth day because of needing 3 pyrium bars for each one and the transmutes share a cooldown. Yes, yes, I know I could just purchase some of this, or use others’ cooldowns, but I’m stubborn. It’s going to cost me 29k just for the items that are vendor-only. Also, I’m kinda old fashioned. I was taught that you work for what you want, and value it more for having had to work to get it, rather than just buying it.
Alright, that’s enough philosophy crap for today. Cya later, I have mats to farm.

If you need some transmutes my alchemist usually isn’t burning hers.
Grats, and sorry I wasn’t on to congratulate you! Hopefully tonight I’ll be up for stuff…
Wonder how long it takes to get to the guild level where you get a 10% dicount on vendor items?

I may take you up on that once or twice. Then again, I figure the longer it takes me to transmute it all, the more time I have to build up my gold supply. Although I should get a pretty nice boost from the three bags full of artifacts when that stupid patch finally drops.
Hope you feel better soon! Being sick is the pits.

Woot!!! Amazing! Good luck on the mats! I’m not even 525 Alchemy so I just have the stupid pattern in my bags. I’m off to Deepholm for questing and herbs tonight!

I also often don’t use my transmute… and I have plenty of spare pyrite laying around.

Is it really your birthday? If so, happy birthday. If not, good wishes rescinded.

It was yesterday, ya. lol.
Hm. Two years ago I got Loque’nahak on my birthday. This year I got the recipe. Maybe I should have gone to Stratholme. :(

Happy Birthday! I thought they got rid of Rivendare’s mount…

Nope, it’s still there. I’ve seen a guildy get it since Cata came out.

Nice present! That stupid recipe is the only reason I’m leveling Arch on my priest. Almost to Northrend!
