@Oleis@Razmael - I just now noticed that the Spirean cabinet was replaced, and the stuff inside got returned. Thank you so much! Small little detail, but really appreciate it!
2) Grad school decision is likely going to be issued sometime this week. Gotta stay optimistic...
3) It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday, lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend...
4) Actually getting to witness an event and then hang out with the itty bitty nekkid @Ivoln. Desperately trying to build Demarcus' personality and while what I did made sense in my head I get the sense it didn't make sense to those that were with me. Alas, I still had fun.
5) Reading the rest of the LOVE posts. Like @Arbre and "School comes first." Jawsome!
I'm at the airport right now! I'll be in Houston in 6-8 hours. I already miss @Piper dearly and I'm still in her city. I miss my apartment. I wish that things didn't have to come to me leaving. But I'm going to see my mother for the first time in ten years!
I have some love for the old forums being archived so when I feel like going back in time, I can.
My recent adventure through some of my favorite threads (mostly relating to aetolian artists and their works) had me wishing for a newer version of the fist bump chain.
Coming back from a few hours away to find out that potential drama was handled by others like super pros and turned into productive solutions - @toz, @aarbrok, @ishin. You guys have made my night and saved my sanity.
I love Starbucks Frappuccino. I would probably be like 10-20 pounds lighter if I loved it less. But those are glass bottles of bliss and my work days (luckily I work every other day, or it would be a lot worse) are not the same without them.
Sweet Sweet Caffeine. Also I love wonderfully glorious days that are not full of snow and are full of sun.
I got my acceptance letter to grad school for this fall. Tons of mixed feelings between being overjoyed I can get away from this horrible job to being scared out of my mind because I'm walking away from a job with very good compensation with a new baby and blah blah blah, etc. At the end of the day, I just have to remind myself that I'm doing this because my current job will kill me by the age of 40 and the job that I want will not only be intellectually challenging, but also interesting and I get to help people.
I know it is all cliche to want to help people, but because of the very people that I will be learning from, my dad got to see me get married, see my younger brother and sister graduate from college, my older sister win a bronze medal at the Olympics in London, and he got to enjoy his retirement for a bit longer. Cancer is a unicorn, and I want to be on the front lines directing the heavy artillery. Or particle artillery, I guess. Prepare the phasers!
My school sent me a letter saying I was eligible for a special need-based loan in addition to my normal Stafford loans, so I go online to check that out and sign up for it, and I'm like wtf is this stuff? Turns out they gave me two more need-based GRANTS as well - with those two and my Pell Grant that I've been getting, my grants alone total 5k a semester. I might ACTUALLY get out of severe debt soon.

I can't like this hard enough. Debt, especially student debt, is a terrible, terrible thing. I get by by trying not to think about the money I owe for a degree I'll never use.

Student loans are the entire reason that I didn't bother going back to school after completing my AAS.
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but so far I'm loving Aetolia! My guild is little, is that normal? And Enorian is, for the most part, kinda quiet. But it was really easy to find a solid purpose for Azhek, so I'm hopeful.

Some guilds are smaller than others, some are bigger. In Enorian, the Luminaries are the biggest, as we generally average between 4-6 people on during off-peak and up to 14+ during peak. If you need help, holler on CT and we'll be sure to help you out!

So I went to goodwill looking for a spaghetti pot to round out my pathetic little pot and pan for chop suey. I'm waiting rather impatiently for Monday, as one of my co-workers said they were getting rid of their cookware (old) since they got some new stuff. They had (marvels of marvels!) copper bottomed revereware. What do I find at goodwill?
I am the happily cooking dinner owner of two copper bottom reverse pots and pans and one spaghetti pot. Yay, I can cook without spilling stuff in the burners!

Put hidden/secret and health/mana/end/wp regen on every room.
Whine in hopes they'll give us more options to use them on.
