Turns out I didn't shoot myself in the foot with my uni application.

So, fingerscrossed, I should hear back from them by the end of the week that I've been excepted. Yea, for mature age entry!

Got my Jimmy Buffett swerve kicking again.

15 years of love is still rewarded every song.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

had to work as a caller today, after not calling for 4 months (well technically, even longer, since I only called once before this year in September, and prior to that it was last March).

despite that, did really decent today. And next shift i'll be able to lord that over all my callers who complain about the job and try to tell me that "I don't know what it's like anymore", hehe

SW:TOR is really rocking my socks off right now, AND I just learned Kingdoms of Amular is out in early February, and then ME3!

And in between that, the US release of the new ICE book is mid-Feb so I shall hopefully have a good February.

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Listening to Neil Gaiman reading various short pieces from FRAGILE THINGS (a book I adore!) on YouTube makes Monday INFINITELY better.

Just be glad that this is the first real cold snap that we have had this winter. And take comfort in the knowledge that I am sitting in my warm office while I type this.

I'm happy winter finally arrived. For a while there it looked like spring had come early.

Text chats with gf are getting less ' feeling akwardly odd' and more 'reminding me why I love this woman'.
Good times.

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.
