Hot diggity, I can almost smell my bounty in some of them holds!
I completed a map/chart earlier myself - one for the ol' book that charts the magic system out for me.

Ageless II is off to a pretty good start. I seem to be in one of those creative moods tonight.

I'm sitting in the chinese waiting for my takeaway.
Although I've hardly eaten a thing today, really hungryyy!
I need ribs.
So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Salt and pepper ribs I hope.
My jalfrezi was awesome although I can no longer feel my gums. I think I'm finally full.

Good job! Salt and pepper squid actually; capital ribs, egg fried rice, chow mein and spring rolls, and a bottle of wine which has mysteriously disappeared already.
Fortunately I stuck another in the freezer.

The construction guys on the site where I work are filling in a large, deep hole inside of a controlled area. The dirt is coming in by dump truck then being pushed in by dirt (mud) ramp down into the hole. They managed to stick the (very heavy) bulldozer down at the bottom of the ramp and now can't get it pulled out despite chain hooking it to an excavator. Reminded me of the "Usually takes a crane to get it out" meme on 4chan. I giggled for about 20 minutes. Bulldozer is still nowhere near able to come out an hour later.
If your cat wasn't meant to fly, why wouldn't they make them bigger?

Decided to start my first Malazan reread this past weekend. Only read the 10 Erikson books the first time through so this time I'll be adding in all of ICE's as well as Bauchelain and Korbal Broach. I think I'll be trying the Tor.com reread companion as well. I've started with Night of Knives since it precedes GotM and also because I've not read it yet, but always wanted to know more about Kellanved and Dancer before. The only slight bummer is I know its going to be a slow read. I just have no time to spare for reading since I finished my first read of Malazan a year ago. I've tried to read a couple different books since but couldn't really get going on them. I don't think I'll have that problem with this series!

Second round interview tomorrow. Legal adviser for a university. I'm tentatively excited. I really want the job, but I have some competent competition, and I also worry a little about the sallary. Still, I want this job, and feel sort of proud that I was invited back for this one.

After all the bad celeb news so far this year, what's making me happy is rapper B.O.B. coming out as a Flat Earth conspiracy theorist yesterday and still going hard today, including a sweet Neil Degrasse Tyson diss: https://soundcloud.c...feat-neil-tyson
They came with white hands and left with red hands.

He and Tila Tequila are hilariously gullible. Also profoundly stupid, but that goes without saying.
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.

That interview went very well. I picked out issues from the case that the people who wrote it hadn't considerd, so that was a pluss. Also, I seemingly got along very well with the people doing the interview.
My experience is perfect for this job, but I've not had anything resembling this sort of responsibility before. So if I don't get it, that's probably the reason. Hopefully the reason.

You've gained the power of perverse knowledge? Dude, I could have hooked you up with all of that without planetary alignment.

Interviewed for two different positions with the same organization. They called to tell me I was their top candidate for both and are going to fly me out to meet everyone and decide which position I want. That's pretty cool and doesn't ever happen in my field.
Also, my boss called out of the blue to tell me he'd put me in for a raise. I guess the other folks called for a reference check.
It feels nice to be courted after slaving away here for years with no real recognition beyond "Hey you do good work, here's some more to do. Also Jim left, you need to do his work too. Oh and no raises this year again either."
