Thanks to everyone who has written in or commented about the recently datamined item, [Phaelia’s Vestments of the Sprouting Seed]! As if it weren’t enough of an honor to have been mentioned, Blizzard was thoughtful enough to include my as-yet-unborn “Sprouting Seed!” The stats are amazing, and even the crit isn’t necessarily a waste with the upcoming changes. And to top it all off, they’re beautiful, matching the colors of the Tree of Life (plus green)! I’m happy for all the players that will wear them proudly some day. Thank you, Blizzard!

Finally, because so many have asked about it, I am writing a non-Druid-related blog. (Resto4Life has been too much fun to give blogging up altogether.) Focused on my love of Marvel comics – and specifically my long-standing love for two specific characters – the supremely dorky Sugah & Spice blog is small, less frequently updated, and intended to be a much, much, much (much) lower level of responsibility than was Resto4Life. While I doubt the content will be of much interest to many readers, maybe there are a few other comic geeks out there who would be interested in reading something so niche.

Bre and Fimlys of the Twisted Nether blogcast very graciously invited me onto their show this week to talk about my decision to close Resto4Life and what will become of Blog Azeroth and the World Tree Project. If you’re looking for a little more insight into my thought processes and future plans, I’d encourage you to give it a listen!

Thanks, Fim and Bre! It has been a tremendous honor to share the blogosphere with you both!

P.S. Apologies for the heavy breathing. My mic is just awful!
