Slowly but surely I am getting closer to my Wow Come-back. I am still held up by the initial expenses in starting up again. My previous plan was to have 2 accounts and transfer my other 2 accounts across so I could run with 3 groups of 2 characters.
Plan B.
Now I am looking at just the one character. I think initially I will play with my Feral and then in time activate a 2nd account. I will basically Transfer all my other characters across to the 2nd account and then possibly move one more to the main account. Time will tell.
Waiting Game.
That's about all I am doing right now, just waiting until I come back. I still think its around a month away but we will just have to see. Beld has promised he will come over and level a toon with me but then again he also promised me a post a few weeks ago (hint hint) so again we will just have to wait and see.
Something is Missing.
Not surprisingly the thing I miss most is the friends I used to play with. That is what is really fueling my drive to come back to the game. I must admit I am also hoping that my Girlfriend will take an interest in the game, but I somehow doubt that will happen.....

Welcome back buddy!
I have my A-Team all at 80 and if Beld isn't around, I am happy to give you a hand... Just yell in game.
As for the lovely lady, I found the trick was to not make the whole thing sound too strange (nerdy), but more like just something fun you do for a bit of a release. Include the odd short conversation about some fun things you are doing then comes the kicker...
One lazy Friday night or Saturday afternoon, ask her to come and spend an hour with you to experience "what I do for fun". Crack a nice bottle of wine, roll her a NE hunter (:-P OK, druid) and if she comes up for air in under 4 hours, well I'd be surprised! This has worked well for several of us hooking our significant other in ;-)
See you online!

Glad to see you're on the track to preparing a come-back and not bumrushing into things and getting in over your head. Careful planning and what not...very nice!
In regards to your girlfriend...well...I'm the opposite. In the past, I've always been the one to introduce the game to my boyfriend. I've played since release day and have a suggestion or two depending upon her personality.
1. It's to get a glimpse into your world, it isn't to make her into an immediate theorycrafter.
2. No pressure. If she doesn't like it, oh well. You'll just have separate hobbies and respect that of each other.
3. Go over the basics of a class, don't tell her why Stoneform is the MUST HAVE ZOMG SHIZZLE. There are perks to every single class. Find one she likes the look of and explain what those perks are if she'd like to continue.
4. Don't go on for hours about how the druid can heal, shapeshift, etc. Hunters are dps, Druids are hybrids, etc. Let her ask the questions after your short summary.
5. From all that, she will find out what she will play :) The less you push her to a class, the more fun she will have knowing that she chose her own! Just be there to answer questions :)
6. A short sum-up of a starting area, these are spells, this is a quest, etc. Go look around. The mobs there wont harm her and she can see how beautiful the game is.
7. Show her how to chat, but not necessarily in general...they might eat her for lunch in /1. Sadly, you will have to be her savior when others will call her "noob".
I could actually continue on longer! hehe But I wont. I hope it all works out for you guys. Let us know if she jumps in and what she chooses! :)
