Finally got my passing grade on the Librarian course I finished in January. It took 2 months for the grade to come through (my own mistake) but I got a B. I am fucking ecstatic.

I had a ton of problems with the empirical evidence I collected for my analysis so I was certain I was going to get my ass handed to me. I haven't spoken with my councillor yet about the paper but who cares?! I got a fucking B!

Now if somebody would just hire me...

Congrats. Let's see your ... qualifications.

Went to lunch with my father, step-mom and three of my stepsibs yesterday and man, what a feast. I also found out that my two stepsisters-in law are pregnant (one due mid-August, the other early September) AND my stepsister is engaged, though it hasn't been officially announced yet. A part of me was kind of like "damn, now my life seems even less interesting" but thankfully that was a fleeting thought, and in my mind I am already helping decorate nusreries.

Oh, and then after we gorged ourselves my dad took me to an Italian bakery and bought me cannoli, two of which were last night's supper. It's a wonder that my digestive system is still functioning. Good times, good times.

"What are they doing to the panda, Mummy?"

"They're...*looks at tv to see a vet stick an electrified dildo into a panda's anus*...woah! Okay, not where I thought this documentary was going. Um..."

Cue awkward conversation about artificial insemination.

Wait a minute. When you say "electrified" you mean powered by electricity? Or like ZAP!!?

They said it was called 'electrified ejaculation'. The use an electrical pulse to stimulate the prostate whilst manually stimulating the penis in order to cause ejaculation.

The panda was knocked out cold so I guess they need to really work for the result?

Been in Tulum for five days. Have two and a half more days here. It's been amazing. Six cenotes swum in, a beer float through the Sian Ka'an lagoons, seeing Ek Balam, going through Valladolid, having a beachfront bungalow, eating amazing foods sporadically in between decent foods, and being with the lady I love very much.

WiFi sucks something fierce, but hey, can't win them all.

I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

Heh, apparently, some genealogist contacted my best friend's family claiming they're descended from Charlemagne. I'm having a field day with Crusader Kings II real life Karling jokes :clap:

We took our son to his first acrobatics class today. He was clearly really nervous but he gave everything a shot ("It was a bit scary but me decided to just be brave.") and didn't get disheartened when he couldn't do something ("That's what practise is for, Mummy.")

We stayed for the next two available classes - dance and music/drama - as well.
He enjoyed dance but he absolutely loved music and drama so we've enrolled him into all three classes.

I was really curious to see how he would take to a structured learning environment. He has no experience with it except for his swimming lesson but there's only, at most, one other kid at that. He did far better than we expected. He never ran over to us except after each lesson, he followed instructions really well, and he kept trying things even if he wasn't sure how to do them. Plus, he was okay with us leaving the room between lessons. He did look over every now and then for a reassuring thumbs up but by the last class he mostly forgot we were there.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how he progresses with this. :clap:

My wife had won tickets for Holiday on Ice and we went today.

Leaving the trainstation I noticed a cosplayer and I wondered aloud if there was a fantasy thing going on today and my wife answers yes, turns out that Dutch Comic Con was also this weekend at the same venue.

After watching the Holiday on Ice we walk past the hall where the Comic Con was held and my wife says if you want to go, get a ticket and go. I'll wait outside.

If I only had known it was this weekend I would have put on my long coat and my Vortex Manipulator on my wrist or ordered the burgundy All-stars to go with my blue suit and the 10th Doctor Sonic Screwdriver.

While I felt a bit out of place concerning my clothes I really geeked out on things that I saw there including two Batmobiles (a modern one and a classic) and different Lego builds including Battlestar Galactica Vipers and Cylon Raiders.

And not to forget some truly awesome cosplayers.
