Looks like it's harder than I thought.

So after I posted about "quitting" WoW, I've played every day since that proclamation. I even started a new toon. Got her to level 10, too. Taking a break seems harder than I thought. Though, admittedly, I think I play just to chat with my boyfriend who lives a state away since it's easier to talk that way than yammering on the phone or texting endlessly. Yea, a real life boyfriend.
I did Heroic Blood Furnace with my DK boyfriend last night. Yes, just the two of us. He was tanking, and I had my healer pants on. Maybe I should duel spec for heals. Though I've heard Shamans aren't the greatest healers. But, I enjoy doing things with my boyfriend better than with a group with a real healer, so I better step up.
I've heard Cataclysm isn't scheduled for release until November, so I've got plenty of time to get my Wintersaber, which I figured out I only need to do the quest group 23 more times. Sigh. Down those giants, slaughter the furbolgs, annihilate endless amounts of bears and chimera for meat. At least it sort of gets me more reputation for the Timbermaw as well, though after hitting revered, I don't get rep for killing them anymore, except for the "bosses" which are still 60 rep a kill.

Are you kidding? Shammies are fine healers. In my old guild the best healer was a shammy. You just spam chain heal on the tank and hit mana tide once in a while. You should be able to easily heal WOTLK heroics. And get some better gear. Geez, T9 is almost free.
And if you're afraid to heal, just dps and roll on all the healer drops. Chances are, no one else will want them. Not many classes wear healer mail.
I did end up duel-speccing for heals, but I've only had one opportunity to test it out so far. People are so intolerant of "I'm new at this so bear with me" that I've been afraid to try it for a random group.
I've got two epics, yay...
