Skipping all day due to sudden unexpectedly good news. I guess if at first you don't succeed, keep trying again even though it feels ridiculous? One day you might stumble into something successful!
"Oh yeah, you're a naughty mayor, aren't you? Misfile that Form MA631-D. Comptroller Shevat's got a nice gemstone disc for you, but yer gonna have to beg for it."
This isn't exactly a rave - well kind of a rave because I thought it was hilarious.
I work in a liquor store part time (one of my few jobs), and this week we had a beer and wine tasting - and I kid you not, we got a brand new brand called DRAGON'S MILK. I'll get a picture next time I work there to prove it.
BUT FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT KNOW WHY THAT'S IMPORANT, OMG, I NEARLY LOST MY SHIZ WHEN I SAW IT.
Is... is it golden?
I'm pretty sure the label is. It actually might have been called Golden Dragon's Milk, I can't quite remember. IT TASTED HORRIBLE THOUGH.
Are you...sampling your own wares?
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

For the liquor store you mean, or am I producing my own golden dragon milk and then drinking it?
For the former, yes! We have wine tastings and beer tastings, etc at work, and part of my job is that (if I want to, it's not forced) I can taste these things so I can better recommend/understand what makes a good drink versus a bad one. It's just one way that helps me do my job better, beyond being just a faceless cashier. I like to be honest in my recommendations, so I try to taste a new and/or popular product so I can very truly say, "Oh, I loved that!"
For the latter, why yes, I've grown horns and a tail, I breathe fire and produce golden milk from my brea - OF COURSE NOT YOU DING DONG. :P

Whoa. Bumped into an old Internet friend I've known for ten years.
...In person. For the first time. On complete accident. Apparently we now work for the same university! @-)

So I finally have a steady work schedule and time to myself in the week now that I'm settled in my new home, therefore I can start venturing back into the land of Lusternia. I just have to get over the urge that I need to move Anita somewhere else for me to get back into the swing of things. Must resist!
Hi everyone!
So far I'm adjusting to my new job well enough! I really like the people I'm working with, they're very nice. And I'm learning a lot. And my tolerance for spiciness has gone way up since I work with a lot of African people (Nigerian, Cameroonian) who sometimes share their food with me, so I can enjoy an even wider variety of foods.
Lived in the philippines for 2 years, can confirm that turon is invented by God himself.
Also try Adobo.

Going a bit rogue on some of the assignments I'm putting together, but now they are done and I look upon them with a stupid grin on my face. So even if students don't enjoy the courseload, I will at least enjoy teaching it! (I hope they enjoy it, though.)

Got my new phone. Galaxy S6 Edge. Switched from having an iPhone for the last several years.
Right off the hop disappointed by the voicemail system. iPhone's is completely built in whereas Android you either use insecure third-party or I pay my ISP for their 'Visual Voicemail' crap. I understand that's more of my provider than Android, but Apple pushed their weight around - figured Android could too.
Oh well.

Some of the worksheets we give at work have circles to color... and one of our kids is just... a coloring prodigy. She colors those circles so brightly and evenly and perfectly in the lines. I sometimes tell her to do more of those sheets just because I love looking at those circles afterwards.
Her coloring makes me ocd happy. It's so nice.

Android fanboy here: The OEM's that produce Android devices don't have the weight of Apple. They just don't sell enough. Maybe collectively, but no single OEM has the volume. If you're Samsung and you want the carriers to do your bidding, they can say "OK, guess we'll sell more iPhones and LGs this year".
Motorola is trying to do an end run by selling the Moto X directly instead of through the carriers this year. I just don't think they're popular enough.
Plenty of 3rd party visual voicemail setups, although I just switched to MetroPCS and they have an app for it(transcribing to text costs $1 month though).
Welcome to Android. I use the Nexus 6 myself as I don't care much for Samsung's software.....mutations.

My friend kicked a hole through her wall when she fell off of her bed months ago, and I only just found out because of a bad piece of tape made the poster covering it up fall to the floor. I got one of my carpentry friends and her fiance, and while she was at work we tore open the wall, added a bookshelf organiser, moved the outlet closer to the bed, and patched up the drywall where it needed doing.
Raves for... my cat. I'm not a crazy cat lady (I swear), but after 4 years of having this beautiful old guy (who is 13 now), he still does things that amuse me for days afterward.
Like tonight, for example - I had a moderately sized plastic bag filled with a random assortment of things someone gave me that they no longer have a use for, which I left on the ground. The guy, being as curious as cats come, fearlessly climbs into this bag and literally paws the items around inside to see exactly what they are, despite only being able to fit about a head and shoulders in there. Does this for about three minutes before deciding that it's not that interesting after all but is still worthy to be his new throne.
The throne-claiming I'm accustomed to seeing. The thorough investigation beforehand was new.

One of our junior high students has gotten fixated on the idea of learning Calculus... taught him the basic idea behind a limit, and how to take a derivative with the power rule(what a derivative is would have been a longer conversation...) today. It's been interesting to me, at least, since I'm having to think up easy calculus explanations for someone who hasn't taken algebra yet, and he is adorably determined to figure it out.
Even so, I hope he gets bored with it soon. I'm running out of easy explanations!

Slowly but surely, the final phase of my great move across the US is coming to a close. Which means, everything I have been putting off from Lusternia can finally get done again.

So what you're saying is. You're going to buckle down and make the Magnolia quest coolest yet somehow most not-tedious best thing ever that we won't ever complain about again?
