The love letters are an excellent source of insulation for my home. I had to switch phone companies because he was blowing up my inbox, thank you very much.

That's the price you pay for being so stunningly eloquent and witty that nobody can top you. We slink away in shame, tails between our legs.
You're Rone, right?
I'll have one ready this weekend. :S

So, I've come to realize that I didn't spend enough time thinking about Plan B. I threw everything into grad school applications and fixated upon that for the past year.
Hear I am, with one admission offer from what was more or less a "safety school", and a growing pile of rejections, and I find myself wondering about "what ifs". I'm not thrilled with the location of this school, and I've never been there. I'm visiting next week, but I have to evaluate it honestly, because I could be there for a long time.
And I'm petrified because I never gave a lot of thought to what I might do if not this.
Oof. BTDT.
Think of it this way: if you decide that the grad school you've gotten into isn't for you, it's a chance to do something completely different and new for a while if you want to, and that in and of itself can be a learning experience. (answering the question, "What do I do when I can't do what I thought I wanted?" is what led me to my current career path.)

Thank you. I find that very encouraging.

I also know that whatever happens, I can't let myself fall into complacency. When I got out of undergrad, I took a job in finance because a lot of my family worked in the industry and someone was able to hook me up with a job. I've been doing that sort of thing ever since, and I really don't like it. Some people do, but it's not for me. I have to continue to push myself.

The firefly crew runs into spike on a desolate planetoid out in the far edge of the verse. He is running from the newest slayer who is having a hard time keeping up since the verse is so much larger then a single planet. She does not know spike has had a soul for over two millennia and he is working on a cure for being a vampire!!!
Sounds like fanfic time!!

Seriously. You'd laugh like crazy. People would be all concerned, because the further I threw you, the more you'd smile and laugh. You only almost got away from me once, but I made a rather spectacular catch of your legs as everybody freaked out. You never hit me with the vomit, either, though once you got real close and I moved my head just fast enough as it hit where my head was. When you puked, your laugh would be momentarily interrupted, but it wouldn't make you upset. You'd just finish laughing once the obstruction cleared, and you'd barf through smiling lips. You were such a happy little thing.

My wife plans to beat me soundly about the head and shoulders in order to keep this from happening. I can't wait to toss my kid about, nauseated or not, although I wont' do it if they don't like it.

1. Don't start out big, work up to it, get used to the kid. (Their heft, their balance, etc.)
2. Don't panic.3. Keep your EYES on the KID AT ALL TIMES!

That's not true...That's impossible!!!
No really, it's impossible. I think my dad has been in the room with me while Whedon was on live tv or something.

Lol, I did not see this sage piece of advice before I posted my story! Evidently similar things have happened to others.
