Help
Holy freaking hell, I haven't been on the forum in FOREVER!!! I've got a baby on the way and i'm in my 2nd year of college. I'm sure I have missed an incredible amount of things, so what's making me happy is the ensuing hilarity of what you all have been up to while I was gone.
Whats making you happy right now

So a new date happened last night and we're now a couple I guess? Maybe. It's been such a fast ride I am still in a bit of shock. But she's pretty awesome, so so far so good!

My cousin was coming from America.
So I'm now the proud new owner of a waterproof kindle (most beautifully designed piece of tech I have ever seen) and an ipad pro. Seriously tech is so cheap in the states it makes me weep. That and the states has amazon pantry.
The kindle was def a great purchase, its just so nice and I look forward to reading it in the bath.
I have high hopes for the ipad as a electronic journal and also as a way to read text books and science papers. So far though its just been an amazing Netflix device.

The kids school is cancelled today because of ice. While this means i'll get diddly squat done for work, a day being lazy with the kiddos will be awesome.
I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

Valentines day, am I the only one who is excited to this occassion? 
one of the holidays i care the least about each year, tbh.
Making me happy was that I had a pretty good last day at our professional development conference. We had a Young Lawyers' Division reception, which involved food and improv artists as entertainment.
Caught up with a few people I knew, met a ton of new people (which is basically the point of the event), and now there's only one day left in the work week!

Had a great time this week end with the new girl. She's a Spanish psychologist doing her best to become certified in Norway. If she can't I wouldn't be surprised if she decided to move somewhere else, but that's a worry for another time. For now I am content to enjoy how great and natural it feels being with her.

Exciting news! My president and commander in Thief seems to finally e on the way out of power. His own political party has demanded he resign. Naturally he has refused but it seems likely his own party will finally join with the opposition to vote him out of office on his soon to be 9th vote of no confidence. His exit is long overdue and I'm pretty excited. Wont fix my country overnight, in fact the damage may already be done, but its a start.
The police and national prosecutor already seem to be making rapid progress in several corruption cases seemingly overnight. After years of apparently being unable to even confirm if the sky is blue they are apparently just miraculously finding and acting on evidence. So that's a pretty strong indication of the power shift right there.

My father's surgery went well. He is back home, and quite fine, though extremely grumpy as he is on a soft diet and can't talk much.

Just had a job interview. Wish me luck, y'all, I want that job. Though it was only the first round of interviews and they're probably interviewing something like twenty people, but damn, that job would be awesome.

My president wont resign. Claims he is not aware why suddenly everyone wants him gone. Motion of no confidence tomorrow. I hope his forced exit is as embarrassing for him as possible.
