Went corset-shopping with Anna and Sarah today. No corsets were actually purchased, as the only one I really liked that was in my size and fit properly had boning issues (... ehehehehe "boning" eheheh), but they'll call me when they get more in.
Then Sarah had to flee, so Anna, Don and I sat around for a bit in the Elephant House, and then I went non-yarn shoppping. Bought some bobbins, pom pom makers, and, um, a ball of Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk DK, which I was allowed because I need a second ball to be able to use up the first ball I have! *eyedart* This is not a rationalisation!
And then I bought World of Warcraft. Yes, "two weeks before NaNo". Yes, I'm insane. Yes, this is all your fault!

I need to investigate these RP servers and what makes them different from the other ones. Sounds like I might have fun there.

So, okay, current problem: money. Is it normal that I don't ever have enough money to get the gear I can be wearing at my level? Should I do some grinding or something to collect a bunch of money (even though a third of that will then go to fixing gear that's been damaged while fighting)? Am I missing something? (Does the pope shit in the woods?)

Yes. You NEVER have any money starting out. And buying gear will usually leave you with no money to train. Until around level 20 you're going to be wearing stuff that either drops from stuff you kill or rewards from quests. You can grind, if you're a miner by profession (and on your first char you should really take up two gathering profession, like mining and skinning) there are two mines in Goldshire, the human starting area that you can go through again and again for ores that you can smelt then put on the AH.
Learning how to use the AH is pretty important, greens that drop that you can't use go there, as well as stacks of cloth and all the stuff from your professions.

The AH rarely seems to give me more money than straight-out selling, and sometimes doesn't sell at all. :/

!!! Now you tell me?!
Sometimes you have to put stuff up a couple times. Are you checking the prices of other sellers stuff and pricing yours a little under theirs?
... don't be silly, that would make sense! Most of the time I've pretty much just put stuff up for the minimum price the AH asks for, but I'll start doing that now, thanks!

General rule is that stuff with it's name in white is useful and or valuable. And NEVER use the base AH price. Example: a tailoring pattern dropped off mobs my main was killing yesterday, the base price the AH gave was 5 silver. According to Allakhazam it's worth about 50 gold. So. :D Just run a search for similar things to what you're selling and price accordingly. If there's nothing to compare use Allakhazam or Thottbot.com.
