New girl got angry about something. Guessed what it was and did a precision apology strike. Direct hit!

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Wait, hang on, how old are you really? I'm not asking because you seem old, but you seem proper old, mate.

He looks like hes about 16. I think he's early twenties at the oldest.

My age is ambiguous. I've had a hairdresser thinking I'm 15/16, a colleague thinking I'm 26-28, so on and so forth. I've heard all sorts of guesses, and the best part is, you KNOW they're guessing. Those guesses tend to run close to the guesser's own age if they're somewhere 15-30, and becomes skewed further downward the older the guesser is. Though there are exceptions; that hairdresser was more or less my own age and she was guessing really low. Which I call unfair when she then wants you to guess her age in return!

Eternal Youth, motherfuckers.

Meanwhile:

Day One. First time I've been for a morning run in nearly nine years. Holy shit, I almost died. Haven't been keeping up any sort of fitness regime for about as long (eight months at the gym during one year of high school notwithstanding, for obvious reasons), and...yeah...horrendously out of shape. 3km, 15 minutes. And that is 3km of slopes like / and gradual downhills with a bit of flat. Still, ended up more of a jog than a run, but..baby steps to start. Felt good, though.

Can't believe how long it's been, really. :S

Screw you teenager. non sport related cardio is the bane of my life. I hate it with a passion that I do not have a linguistic ability to define to you. So good job and all that.

Got me a new Sony Bravia TV and a copy of GTA5 to Christen it and my woman is cooking Spanish omelette, garlic breads and some kind of seasoned pork ~~lion~~ loin thing.
It's going to be a fine evening.

Hmm. I appear to be flavour of the month at work again. Overtime: inbound! And being the only person specifically asked to undertake important new duties because I'm "responsible", (other people please apply because you're mostly for show, kthx) is somewhere between gratifying and depressing. XD
Oh, yeah, and who you gonna' call when the most competent person on the weekend team is away? Oh, me? The person who used to be that guy before he dropped weekends because you asked him to change his hours in order to fill a gap? Naturally.

Alright, alright, I'm overplaying it a bit, but that's more or less the atmosphere regards me at work at the moment. They've been trying to avoid relying on me for a while, but apparently it hasn't worked out too well.

Hi Abyss, It's Dolmen.

Ok. now that I've got that out of my system, carry on.

Welcome to the Erogenous Zone of rep

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I've caught 2 huge Bullfrogs in my yard the past 2 nights! Gonna try again tonight. The 2nd barely fit in my hand it was so big! He was over a ft long stretched out. I entertain myself on Ambien at night and go creature hunting.

That's not a combination of things I'd have ever expected to read on this forum. You're like a long lost Bole brother.

May you sleep well with your catch and release shenanigans.
