That’s right, it’s patch day! Everyone rejoice! For today is the day all of your hard-crafted, slaved-over talent specs go up in smoke! Oh and those addons that you used to make that uber UI? TOAST! Welcome to the joys of server crashing and lag city, population YOU!
::cough::
Okay so I might be a little “meh” on patch days. I’m actually not that bitter/upset/angtsy about them as it may look. My feelings on this patch are decidedly mixed. I’m not sure about my main, my hunter, anymore. I’m not sure if it’s just me hitting the end of my “end-game” with her or something else. My mage? Eh, I’m a bit more interested in her, but not “Wooooo! MAGE!”
And then there’s my warlockette. Her? I’m irked at the servers for being down so that I can’t work on her. Yes, I’m mildly obsessed with leveling her. Right now, I’m trying to convince myself it’s a good thing they’re down, so she’ll have some rested xp on her when I log in tonight to fight with addon replacements. Friday morning she was level 51 and then got a lovely headache from hell, so it was a short grind day (not to mention, I missed out on the roundtable I’d promised a certain dwarf I’d be there for). I worked Saturday, then came home to a WoW that ate itself, requiring a reinstall. Sunday was mostly repairs to addons that will still get replaced tonight. Yesterday was a day off, so I worked my little gnome butt off. Result? I’m now lvl 56, and about 15% from 57. /dies
But like has been pointed out by most of the WoW-blogging planet, it’s patch day. And this patch is bringing an overhaul of every single class out there, complete with new talents and a total rethinking of a lot of specs. I have specs plotted out for the hunter (3 of them), the mage (only 2), and the lockette (a whole 1). But am I really excited about any of them? Not this time, and I can’t quite put my finger on it. Ah well, I’m sure once the weekend hits and I have some time to REALLY play with things, I’ll be standing on a mountaintop somewhere yelling “I LOVE THIS GAME!” as loud as I can. 
As a side note, Blizz? Love the info we got from the con, and love what you’re doing with your IPs. But I don’t suppose you could let loose some more info about classes for Diablo 3 or possibly a release date? Pls? You know, just to tide me over til Lich King’s out… >.>

I’m pretty meh about patch day myself, especially with constant pleas of “please come up! Please let my server be up WHY ISN’T IT UP AMG!?” so that just adds to the annoyance. (Or perhaps I’m just not tolerant of excited WoW-ers.)
I’m a little concerned about my talents - you are at least prepared with multiple specs. I have one main character, and I cobbled something together only a few hours ago. I really hope it works because… well, that’s all I’ve got.
