Proud Geek Mom moment.

Phew! It's been a while since I posted on here. No, I have not forgotten about this blog, and yes, I'm still writing on it because it's fun. WoW has kinda taken over my free time to be honest (No, I don't have a problem, lol) and also just life in general has been a roller coaster, specially these past couple of weeks. But now I find myself having a bit of more time, so I'm here 😁. As many by now know realize that I am a Geek, but I'm also a parent. And even though I've come to terms and acceptance with my geekiness, that doesn't mean that my daughter has to be one as well. But, as all parents do, I like to share with her things that I think she might enjoy. We (the Mr. and I) got her into WoW, because she developed a genuine curiosity for it. I didn't coarse her or influence her into it.

Thank You:

Yesterday was a sad day for the gaming world because it lost a giant: Satoru Iwata died at the age of 55...  Rest in Peace... and thank you for being an integral part of countless of lives through Nintendo and the games that made our childhoods so special! You will truly be missed, and his legacy will live on. Here's an article from CNN detailing this tragic news: http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/13/world/nintendo-ceo/ The outpouring of tributes over flooded the internet (all over). I'm grief stricken and due to the nature of the article, Out of respect, I will make no further comment regarding Mr. Iwata's passing.
