It's just a small short story in a newly started literary magazine, but still...

This is a huge pdf report of a study into what sorts of marking would be appropriate for a nuclear waste disposal site that would be effective for the thousands of years of life in the radioactive materials stored there. The parts that have loaded for me are fascinating.

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.

Yay, we got the ok for a new apartment, and the one we liked most, too

And it's almost a third cheaper than the current one, and close to mom's workplace

Just came back from an interview - help for handicapped at an airport - and the folks looked happy enough. Wouldn't mind this job at all!

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.

That actually sounds pretty sweet, particularly for a "dealing with the public" type job.

Its kind of cool to think that they managed to get one of the most popular pro Dota 2 players to come to South Africa

So going to get him to sign my boob

This week's weigh-in: I am now 3 months post-partum and have returned to my pre-pregnant weight!

Now, a few caveats. The weight is distributed a bit differently. My lower abdomen is a bit softer than I would like it, what with the skin being looser, so although I fit into most of my old clothes that I have tried, there's a little bit of muffin top going on. And, of course, like every woman everywhere, my baseline weight was about 5 lbs over what I wanted it to be. So that means from here on in, I'm going to be working on that "last 5 lbs" that I've been working on since forever. Still, I think it's time to pat myself on the back for a job well done as I unpack all my pre-baby clothes and then use that good feeling to keep pushing towards my goal weight.

Just had Centz, Shiara and Luci over this afternoon. They had many cuddles with Sombra Jnr.

No, Sombra Jnr is not a euphemism, you filthy bastards.

Centz brought chocolate Doomcake she had baked and it was goooooood. :doh:

Talked to the prof who's supervising my final year project and he said it's okay if I don't have ready what I was supposed to have done by next week. I can hand the stuff in next month. Yay.

Just bought OST.
The guy at Waterstones was spouting some shit about there being 12 new books planned. 12!!!
WTF!!
He reckons it was on SE's site, which we all know is bollocks because, well, we forumites check these things regularly right?

He obviously didn't realise he was dealing with a veteran of this site. Haha.
Plonker.
I actually hope I'm wrong on this, but having just spent the last 15 mins searching t'internet in vain, I thinks it unlikely.

Still, OST!!!

Its Friday. Yes. And tonight I get to go see Fuzz in Philly. Tickets cost me 12 bux. ITs raining like crazy but I don't give a shit. I'm gonna drink beer, take huge bong hits and go get my brain melted. I earned it, especially after I received a ton of email criticism on an interview I did with with Sister Helen Prejean (Susan Sarandon played her in Dead Man Walking). Our state has a bill held up in judicial committee that will abolish the death penalty, and she came here to support giving it a vote. I covered it and lets just say that many people were not happy with our "unbalanced" coverage of the issue. Which was bullshit.

Anyway, yeah, brainey meltz is goodness. I be happy.

Theorizing that one could poop within his own lifetime, Doctor Poopet led an elite group of scientists into the desert to develop a top secret project, known as QUANTUM POOP. Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Doctor Poopet, prematurely stepped into the Poop Accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself in the past, suffering from partial amnesia and facing a mirror image that was not his own. Fortunately, contact with his own bowels was made through brainwave transmissions, with Al the Poop Observer, who appeared in the form of a hologram that only Doctor Poopet could see and hear. Trapped in the past, Doctor Poopet finds himself pooping from life to life, pooping things right, that once went wrong and hoping each time, that his next poop will be the poop home.
