I'm in love. Going to marry this woman if I have any input in this. She's so spectacular that it's nearly unreal. Only been three weeks, but I walk out of every meeting thinking this deep down inside. I haven't told her this, but I've told my brother (and now you strangers).

Aaaww Amph that;s nice to hear. Best wishes!

Something like this or maybe this (NSFW?) or perhaps just something a bit simpler like this you mean?

You want a chuckle?

Just google "country boy stickers for trucks".

Oh jeezus, I did that and just saw one that said "Country Boy Swag"...like what even IS that? That sticker is ridiculous because it doesn't understand the term swag or what it means. When added to a window sticker with little naked shaped ladies crouched on either side like bookends...I think we found the DOUCHE MOBILE!

Good gods, tell me that's not a prevalent thing?

Yes.

And it's growing.

It's reached the point where we can no longer hope to contain it. God help us.

Yikes. What a horrible trend.

Which is strangely appropriate in this brave new social media world.

Seriously, well done and my fingers are crossed for you.

Yes! Use us strangers to sort out your love life! (I'm available for bridesmaid future or whatever...)

Re: stickers on trucks, those are so redneck it hurts...

Just wait till you move past the stage where you're holding meetings, and actually go on some dates. That's when romance really blossoms.

Is this the same woman who gave the cold shoulder not long ago?

Nope. That woman ghosted firmly and without un-ghosting. The reasons why, I'll probably never know (or care all that much about, it's her call to make).

Met this one a couple weeks after and instantly knew it was better than a great connection. I thank the gods (and her) that things worked out this way.

They have to teleconference a few times first.

You left out the stage where introductions are made and names exchanged....

New microsoft band 2.
Have had it a few weeks now but have really only been using for music control when travelling and the pedometer so far.

Had been doing a bit of dicking about on the golf course with it but didn't make a proper effort to investigate its full scope. fuck its awesome. Gives you a full break down of the round. Tracks your shots so you can look over everything at home after. The gps is surprisingly accurate, there was a few shots that stuck in my head for their shitty landing in proximity to trees etc, bang on target on the map too.

Now all I need to do is work on my golf to get the numbers down to acceptable levels. Played a half round with me Ma this evening, I out drive her no problem in pure distance, but every single one of her shots is dead straight, drives, irons, pitches. where I have a horrid right hook in quite a lot of drives and rush my pitch shots often and over hit them. Only beat her on one hole.

Last day as a tax lawyer for the government. A few days of holiday and then I'll start as a tax lawyer for the university. It feels pretty great to be perfectly honest. I like my colleagues here. I enjoy being one of the principal authorities within my field.

I am however incredibly bored working only with issues I know. Soon I'll do something different and new and It'll be great. The increase in sallary will also help, especially now that summer has finally arrived in Oslo. Beer is expensive here.

I did notice how many attractive women were on the tram with me when I went up to check out my new office a few weeks back.

I can see the scandalous headlines already.

Had a lovely night at Springsteen's The River Tour on Wednesday - took my Dad for his 60th. He, something of a mega fan, was like a kid at Christmas all the way through and I wasn't much better. Fabulous night despite the car deciding it didn't want to be a car any more and would much rather be something which doesn't require tracking to work, puncturing a tyre and then having to drive home rather slowly on the space saver!

Also, put my name down to volunteer at the bird of prey centre near us that I keep frequenting. I'm going to learn to be a falconer!

Bought a new pair of soccer cleats for over a bill.

Forgot them on the bus when I got off at the terminal to buy a buss pass.

After some frantic panicking, took the second next bus on same route, got off half way, crossed the street, realized that due to construction next 2 bus stops are closed. dashed to a third one to set up a stakeout for the same bus.

Feeling like there's no way in hell they'd still be there, asked the driver if by any chance he found (or anyone told him) about any bags in the backseat.

His answer: "What kind: big, small".

Me (stuttering): big, Addidas bag.

He *points*- it's sitting by the front door.

I check- my stuff is still there.

I was on the fence about actually keeping them (kinda pricey, was gonna see if I could find a better deal), but now I'm inclined to keep 'em.

Aw I think it's sweet either way!

I just found a "news" website called endingthefed, and it's pure gold. The comments alone are enough to make me laugh.

I had to google wtf End The Fed meant. So that's what Ron Paul is about huh? Well, there you go.

EDIT: dayum, there's a lot of stuff about Trump ...

EDIT: my computer desk is in my room, and I can't help but admire the queen size Darth Vader doona (duvet/quilt) cover I put on my bed last night. It was a birthday present, just took me a while.
The other side has smaller pics and Dark Side quotes. So tragically geeky but I love it.



Note: this isn't my room, but you get the idea.
