There is a plan B and I'll still be moving away, but it'll be to the middle of nowhere because the husband has a 3 year contract lined up there because we probably won't be able to do anything else for awhile. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I dunno, that sounds worse to me! O.o I mean, yeah, the accident was bad, but there was little momentum involved, and I wasn't injured. The one where we were broadsided at about 55-60 mph in the rear driver's side was worse as far as injuries and stuff goes. Accidents with 18 wheelers just sound so dramatic, though.+1. Sheesh. I thought hitting a bus head-on at 40mph was bad.Glad to say, I have never been in a *real* car accident. :-)
(actually I've been in three, and one of them was really bad)Bad accidents suck.
Until you've been dragged backwards down the expressway by an eighteen wheeler, you haven't been in a *real* car accident!
Most of them tend to be, thankfully I have never had one. knock on wood [Slaps.....Wood]
I have a buddy who had 3 of them. 3 Times he was lifewatched to a hospital by helicopter. He was not at fault, nor was he driving. He drives himself everywhere now.
Kruelly! How's life outside China? And belated happy birthday.Life is great. Life is way better than China life. Manila is a cool town, lot's of stuff to do, much more engaging than the cultural black hole I've been in for 9 years. Went to see an actual MOVIE yesterday, in a theater (cartoon, with my 6 year old: edit: it was her first movie theater experience ever). First time in 9 years. Saw the Thor preview. Sweet. Scared the snot out of my kid.Aw poor thing. What did you see?
HOP.
It's an easter bunny movie. Not a classic, but the kid loved it.

Does it really poop jellybeans, or was my chain being yanked?

And the husband only got that contract, because he called in a favor with a buddy of his at the University of Saskatchewan.

I'd say, if there is something you want on someone's blog, you should use said blog to contact them. Also, don't assume they know how to do this RSS feed thing. If you can give them pointers, it will probably help immensely and be appreciated. ;DGood Morning (and a RSS feed would be nice on someone's blog. Just sayin)So...there's TWO emails I haven't gotten from KQ. Weird.
Mornin', everybody.
I would if I could figure out how to contact them through said blog, without actually logging into Google.
That being said, I did figure out how to add the RSS feed through firefox by using the bookmarks tab. Now I will instantly be able to view new posts through my yahoo page.
This may help - tips for setting up an RSS feed on Blogger

Yeah Wal*Mart has been deluging their stores with adds for it. I have not heard much good. I might watch it in a few months when it comes out on Starz.
Are you staying in Manila? I was under the impression that you were headed back to Canada.

$20 million dollars in budget cuts at the university of Glasgow is what happened. My supervisor going into early retirement along with my funding money because of the budget cuts is what also happened........ Therefore I get no PHD, it's too late to apply for anything for this fall, and my funding was non transferable from the government therefore I don't get it..... f!!~So it's official my life is completely f%!&ed!What happened, Jeremy?!
Oof... Sorry to hear that. :-/

sorry to hear about that, Jeremy. Those nasty curveballs that screw up your life plans can really suck! :( All I can say is I've so far managed to muddle through despite them, and am happy where I am now. I hope you will be able to say the same!

:) Yup, and I think it was a good thing. But at the time, the closing of the company and losing the job I'd loved for three years and moving across the country definitely seemed to suck! Now I'm trying to get the rest of my family down here! heck, my brother's marrying a Texan this summer...but they're staying up in Ohio for some crazy reason! O.o

I'm pretty much moved into the apartment in Alpharetta. I took one of our cats with me, and it's taking her a while to get used to the new situation. I think the cat likes all the extra attention she gets when I get back from work.
My boss took me to an Indian buffet on Monday, and I met several people in the department at lunch. We're going to play Rock Band on the department's XBox Friday night, and the boss is buying beer. Evidently, this is something they do periodically.
Since I'll be working in an area of code very similar to what I worked in at the job I left last year, it was nice to see some familiar stuff.
I hope you all are doing well, and I hope I didn't miss anything in the last, oh, 30 pages or so.
(((Hugs))) Jeremy, I am so sorry to hear that.

W/B Taig! Happy to see you have pretty much settled in. Seems like the job is going to be a good one.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to it based on what I've seen so far.
One thing I'm going to have to get used to is the age differential. A lot of the new hires are right out of college. I'm used to working with people pretty much my age. I figure as long as they're not on my lawn, we'll be good. :)
Does it really poop jellybeans, or was my chain being yanked?HOP.

Shat jelly beans it did.

I think of it as an extended stopover. Gonna game with Radavel a bit hopefully.

No luck is better than bad luck I suppose. :P
Tordek: Obvious oversight on my part. Done!
Agh. Jeremy, I'm so sorry to hear about this awful turn of events. I can't believe that happened.

So, does this mean you and Radavel will be judging swimsuit competitions soon? Or does he have that market entirely cornered for himself? ;-)
First math quiz. Five questions. Twenty points. Only twenty minutes and at the end of class, so you feel hurried to get it done because another class comes in 10 minutes.
Pretty sure I got three of them, meh on one, and one I completely bombed. It ended up being a trick question that did not dawn on me until I walked out of the building. I wanted to turn around and run back and ask if I can make a correction, but I knew better. It hung on my psyche all the way on the half-hour drive home. If I get 16 out of 20 pts, it's not the end of the world. 12 out of 20 pts and I'd dread it.
Why can't solving for X just be where the pirate's treasure is located? :P
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
<takes deep breath>
Oooh, Don Rickles is on Letterman.
If I kill time, will I be immortal?
Sorry about your predicament Jeremy. Taig, welcome back and enjoy Georgia.
Blerg.
'Tis Thursday, and I feel like the week has been too fast, and too unproductive =(
