Popping Me Healing Cherry

Had me quite a day Saturday. Ran into me old friend Tantria, who were pushing ta finallies get them last few steps ta 70 taken care of. Now, she been chasing me fer a long, long time, and is good ta see her about ta finally about ta catch me. So we spent the morning killing ogres in Nagrand and Blades Edge, and when I left she were up a half a season. Go, go you goo!

So, laters in the day I'm killing the daily infestation of demons out Sunwell way, when one of me guildies asks if anyone's available to help him run Black Morass fer to get his Kara key. I tells him I'd be happy ta help, but them stopwatch keeper dudes still want me ta prove me dworcish self by busting that noob Thrall out've his cell first. Well, that' okay with everybody, so we got us a party fer Caverns of Time. I look at me teammates, and I see two warriors, a rogue, and the crimson feline hisself.

"So, I guess I'm healing then."

"Looks that way, dude."

Mmmmm, okay. I swing by the bank and pull out the bag with me collection of never used, just-in-case healing gear. Is an odd mix of Kara drops no one wanted and things I collected back in me questing days. All assembled, I ended up with about +1200 healing. Then the tricky part - finding the right spells in me spellbook. Did some frantic cramming on me way to the instance, I tells ya.

The runs theyselves were actually anticlamactic. We outgeared the instances by a fair amount, and cruised through them pretty easily. It felt weird ta not be targetting the buggers we was there ta kill, after so long as a tank and then a dps'er. And I were overhealing like mad crazy at first, but I eventually settled down and stopped freaking if the tank fell below 98% health. And we rumbled through with no fatalities. Wewt! Unfortunatelies, the trinket BRK's been lusting for since, I dunno, I were an orcling back in Searing Gorge er sumthin, did not drop. Sorries, bro. I'd've ripped from that dragon with me bare hands fer ya, if I coulda.
