Disc healing in.. Northrend?

Okay, so I've been a little bit behind on updates lately.

Caze is regularly running TOGC-10 through Faction Champs/Twins with guild.
Amharach is very happily pugging everything minus TOGCs and filling in from week to week with a friend's guild if they need a 10th. Discipline one week, shadow the next! I'm not really happy with my shadow performance, but my runs on Caze probably have me overoptimistic for my Kargath-priest's potential.

Blueknots. Oh, Blueknots. She's now level 73, two quests short of finishing the Dragonblight-quest achievement, and nearly 350 cooking. The holiday cooking stuff has really been a blessing - follow a few quests around, use the spices & food provided by the vendors, go train again, go train in Dalaran to get past 300.. wow.

I've been in Nexus as a healer I think three times now on Blue. The first time was kind of stressful - I didn't actually have all my macros set up right. =O Woops. If there's no replenishment, I'm typically drinking every other pull - but my guess is that's not a spec issue, that's a function of not overgearing the instance. I have yet to have any real wipes on a boss, though, even in there as a level 69 or 70 healing it.

We went back last night to help get me to 73 (my boy's druid has JC dailies that've been pushing him up there right quick and leaving me behind a bit) and it was pretty significantly easier. No use of pain suppression, no use of power infusion (bad priest!). My guess at this point is that my initial flailing and panic in Nexus probably had more to do with some less-than-ideal pulls and the level difference rather than anything else.

It's still weird though - I don't know how much things heal for anymore! I'm so used to Amharach and knowing exactly when to cast each spell, and suddenly that's all turned over and morphed on me. I'll get there with practice.
