Sweet! Mail the check to ...

Why do we all have Friday checks in us?

Should I see a doctor about this?

So now I'm getting that squirming feeling inside that I need to do something crazy. Like when I was 16 I hitchhiked to Toronto from my home in NB.

But with me being married, and soon to have the responsibility of helping to raise a 1 and half year old little girl, I really want these thoughts to go away.

No, no, no... You don't want them to go away, but you need to stop letting them build up to MAJOR craziness. Start doing little crazies throughout the week (like mowing the lawn with black socks and sandals; saying "hello" to everyone you walk by in the mall; or going out to eat at a place you'd normally not go - like Chuck E. Cheese). Then, the little crazies will keep the big crazies in check.

Edit: Crazy nekkids!

Or Nekkid crazies?

Whichever!!

I think I need a vacation, I've been working 2 jobs while doing preliminary grad studies projects without stop for nearly the past 3 years. And now I see my life of major responsibility happening it freaks me out more than just a little. But what has to be done has to be done. If I can somehow keep working at this frantic pace (while apparently looking after a young child in the next few months) and I can just make it to the big move I'll be ok.

Nice collection. I used to have boxes and boxes of paperbacks. (It's a family trait, my dad's family are all heavy readers.) But they were lost to rain while in storage during my Navy years. :(

I'll have to get pictures of the rest of my stuff up.

More of a "Come git ya vitamins, girly!" approach. I like it.

Hmmm. Seems like the looming responsibilities might be making the feelings come forward. Maybe you ahouls take a vacation before heading over to Scotland. Hey, join your Quebecois cousins and come down to Cape Cod! Bring your Orcus and yours and mine can have an epic duel! I got my retro Demon Idol in the mail today, we could roll up some theives and try to steal the eyes from it!

Just a thought! =)

Ebay, about 5 or 6 years ago. Same for the rest, actually. Paid reasonable prices too. (Very reasonable since they go for much more these days.)


So, anyhoo...

Just got a call back and I have a second interview on Monday for a position. Nothing fancy, but it really doesn't need to be. I might have a chance to regain my subscriptions! YAY!

Hmm, I wonder if I can get my 'Charter AP subcriber' tag back ...

I'd love too, it's just the money involved. We're already supporting my sister-in-law and niece financially. Plus the moving expenses, the spousal visa fees, the trip to Halifax for the consulate appointment, etc., etc. I just can't seem to work enough :(

Justin Franklin is new to the boards? I could've sworn he's been around here for a while...

Anyway, if I was wrong: welcome to the boards Mr. Franklin.

Hi all. Where I've been...

** spoiler omitted **

Spoiler:
Biggest problem I've had with academia is the politics and accompanying BS. It's worst in the bigs but, oddly, also kinda better because you can find a few really uber-caliber guys and gals who don't give a crap about politics and are simply stellar at what they do.

I think the important thing is having a mentor/advisor you click with. Interviews are a big deal. Do you know if the dept head would be your advisor, or one of the political grunts? SP and I have a friend who dumped his ABT PhD because he and his advisor had a major blow-up that he saw coming but thought he could avoid. You don't want to do that.

Mairk might have more on this since he's ventured into that hellish realm farther than I. I can't keep my mouth shut and tend to become persona non grata. :-(

You know what? I haven't designated a Mairkurion Poster Awardee lately. I haven't seen anything to replace Charlie Bell's little masterpiece. Let me know if I missed anything.

Had to learn here was a reason to come down here. Not that I am sure there is a reason to come down here, but it is at least interesting to watch...you know like a car wreck. ;)


Right. PbP updated, now it's time to paint a fence. Later!

*blink*


I wish mine was updated {violin swells}

PIE and Johnny Cash!

Treppa must be busy today. And Allen must be...out of town?
Maybe I'll got see Prince of Persia.

So cute! I favor "geek" names in my house, as our five cats are all named after legendary figures or are D&D related.

Morgan, Mordred, Merlin, Ariadne, and Mordenkainen.


Awright folks, it's a bit early but I am off for now. I gotta get something to eat on the way home, so I'm prepping to have a smooth exit. Until the morrow...

Soon they'll want to talk about the eternal struggle of Law and Chaos, Frog God Games, OSR crybabies, Smuggler's Shiv and pie, but they won't be able to, because I will be gone to work. And that goes double for killing webtrolls in their forest caves.
I asked a couple of questions :P
What? You're getting to be like Allen "Wall of Text" Taliesin Jr. Looked like good stuff, but I'll have to have time to wallow in it. I had one response before, but FB lost it, and now I can't rem what I was saying. :(

Sadness. :( I like my walls of text. It shows I am engaged. But I guess it does take a lot to tackle.

By the way, I changed my name so I would no longer be a Jr. Which you wouldn't know, but I thought it might be okay to mention it. :)

Nah, I had no clue. I was making CrimJ be Jr. And of course I like your walls of text. Even if I need a 4-shot espresso before I tackle them. ;-) (Although, I will add, paragraph breaks are your friend.)

I do use paragraph breaks, don't I? In fact, I thought I was pretty obsessive about it. As a former English major, the nature of the paragraph is important to me. ;)


Was I too harsh?
