On Mounts

Here is where I express my frustration about the various mounts that I don't (or do) have.

1. Let's start with the one I do have. The bronze drake. As we all know, you get this from running Culling of Stratholme on heroic within the time limit. I tried to do this a lot before I got it. Of course, my husband had it before I did. He didn't even win the role and some "nice guy" from our guild gave it to him. And later said he didn't do it just to annoy me, but he wished he had. So anyway, I mentioned that my husband kept whispering his mount to me and then everyone else in the guild starts whispering me their cool mounts. The next time I ran it that we killed the extra boss, this other mage got the mount, although he is probably the best mage in our guild and just a cool dude so I wasn't that ticked. Then, when I finally got the group to take me through to get it, our guild leader was like, "Wow Vieretta, that was really easy."

2. The Polar Bear. Ok, so I don't actually do the Brunnhildar daily every day, which I guess significantly decreases my chance of getting this mount, but I try to do it when I'm on. Of course, my husband got this one before me, too.

3. The green proto drake. My husband doesn't have this one yet, only one person in my guild does at the moment, but I'm sure my husband will get this one first too, even though I was revered with the Oracles long before he. Even though my hearth is in Sholazar, I often forget to get a new egg when my old one hatches so I probably could have fit in 1-2 extra tries if I bought the new egg as soon as I could. My own fault, I know, but I want something cool!

4. Ok, I do have something cool, and something that has a feat of strength achievement to accompany it. The problem is I can only use it in one place and I don't frequent AQ40 too often. But I do have the Red Qiraji Battle Tank, so I guess that's kind of cool because a bunch of ppl I was with only needed the red one and they said it was the rarest.
