There I was, running from place to place working on quests. Level 58 was rapidly approaching and I was focused. I was determined.It was 106 miles to Gadgetzan, I had a well rested mount, half a pack of cigarettes, it was dark, and I was wearing sunglasses.
I was on a mission from, um, hold on. Is the circus in town? Why in the Hell is there a circus cannon mounted on the Theramore docks?! Is that in case you don't feel like waiting for the boat?
I'm really not sure. If anybody can answer this one, please let me know.
Where was I now. Oh, right- full steam ahead for level 58. I ran a few quests and made a nice little purchase in the AH of a Lucky Strike Axe of Agility which has a whopping 37 Agility on it. Off to run some more quests and see what kind of damage I can do with this new toy.

/sigh
Apparently it had been a while since I worked my Axe skill. At the end of the fight I think Omen had me registered with 15 aggro. Not 15%, just 15.
Here is where I was faced with a moral dillemma; I don't like my skill being in the double digits. Aside from the fact that it renders me virtually worthless if I need to do any close range melee, it just bothers me. So I figure I'll go work my weapon skill in Eastern Plaguelands and net some experience while I increase my skill.
The sands of time flow and I am making progress on my skill. Unfortunately it is at the expense of getting experience in any sort of efficient manner. So I did what any self respecting player who was only a hair away from a new level would do. I sought out mobs to kill as fast as I can for the quickest experience bumps.
Incidentally, if you see a small pool of blood on the ground in the Eastern Plaguelands and you get the little "gear" icon when you mouse over it, DON'T click it. Two Elite mobs hellbent on pounding you into the ground will spawn.
In the end, I walked away with a new level and some added insight into the ways of WoW: Just because I -can- do something, doesn't mean I should.
