So, I went and signed back up again. I'm not sure exactly for how long or how much I'll be around. But right now, here I am!
Hey: we had a baby!
And, you know, other stuff.

ojaeflo:
Well... THAT.
thefuckoffkid:
Well, awesome!
So I have this friend doing this kickstarter thing here. It's a card and dice game based around mad science. If one is so inclined.....
madscience:
Swimming takes an amazing amount of coordination! I don't remember having a hard time learning as a kid, but re-visiting it as an adult, I have to think through everything. Nothing seems to come naturally. And coordinating the breathing is still something I'm working on.
Good to see you around again!

For a while, we were trying this whole "oh we don't need cable" thing. That's over.
So. Many. Channels!

Who needs free time?
madscience:
Heh. I don't have cable. I got it once when I was recovering from surgery, but even then I didn't watch it much . . .
Holy shit you guys, there are *tits* on this website?
Oh: not dead. Update to come etc.

How's the new job?
How's the new job?Two pieces of news:
1. First call is in. Snappy Liberal Arts School has called me out for a visit at the end of the month.
2. I want to punch my neighbor. In his *face.* I, like all normal people, do laundry - and when I put my clothes in my dryer, I include a dryer sheet (so I smell nice and don't have...

That is your actual WTF.
Hm. What would happen if you were to stop using said sheets for (say) a fortnight, without telling your jackass neighbour? (I know, you wouldn't smell so pretty
) Just asking.

For whatever reason, my college gives us a week long break at midterm. It's actually not even midterm, we just finished week six of fifteen last week. But we have a week off. I spent the morning sleeping in, practicing my job talk (just shaking the dust off of it), and working on a lecture - badly.
That said, in honor of fall break, I'm...

It's right up there for me too. I always look better in sweaters and jackets.

Two important attributes for a good protagonist.
So I done did it: Job apps are out. At least the first few.
Some of them I'm excited about, some of them I am much more ambivalent about (do I really want a career at Fancy Pants Research University - or am I more of a Regional State School and Selectie LIberal Arts guy?). But, in all honestly, I knows I have to get...

Yeah, I have enjoyed my time in Bozeman far more than the majority of cities and towns I've visited in MT. I liked Red Lodge, but that place is fucking tiny and I don't ski so there's not much of a draw besides the Beartooth Nature Center.
My wife actually found a job at MSU she thought was well-suited to my skill set. It's basically a head janitorial/groundskeeper position with a fancy title (Environmental Director or some such). The idea of me, a high school dropout, working in any capacity at a university is pretty entertaining.
