So horrifyingly awesome.
Congratulations!!! Your application to the University of Florida for the Spring 2014 term has been approved!
Official notification will arrive by mail, including the conditions of your admission as well as important orientation and immunization information.
We look forward to seeing you on campus soon, and welcome you to the Gator Nation!
On topic - I absolutely love this game. The immersion is far superior to what I'm used to, the amount of bad apples is disproportionately low, the people are incredibly helpful and friendly both IC and OOC. You are pretty much all, almost entirely without exception, a fantastic group of writers and creators, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered all this and gotten such results from the community. Thank you all! If it weren't for you guys, I'd have to find something (probably) way less interesting and fun to do when my little lady goes to bed!
I lovelovelove that my new laptop arrived (earlier than expected too!) and that it already is proving that it works much better than the old one. I can actually do things again without the internet timing out and stuff!
Majorsuperhuge love and thank you and all that to @Arbre for spending a long time tonight helping me get triggers/mappers/mudbot and all of that installed and set up the way it was on my old computer. I will be the first to admit that I am a complete and utter hopeless case of mud client illiteracy, but she was very nice and patient, and only teased me once.
Meeting other players is always rad.
It was pretty damn good.
I'm not nice to people for any sense of self-satisfaction or because I expect something in return. I do it because my grandfather taught me that the world is a terrible place and that random acts of kindness can really make a difference in your life, the life of those you touch, and the world around you. Someone told me today that they appreciated all the times I had been there for them through thick and thin, always with a smile and a kind word to say even when they were at their lowest. They're treating me to lunch today, but it was just nice to have some appreciation for it when it can be really draining at times. I feel all warm and fuzzy.
I got a good look at the new room for the first time in a month. I thought I got a good look at it when I went to see if it was available, and for the whole month, I thought there was a carpet wall-to-wall, and a dark green bathroom.
Instead I get HARDWOOD FLOORING! My dust allergies say thank you. Also 2 closets (well, one until his daughter collects the rest of her stuff) and the bathroom is attached to my bedroom. (it isn't green at all!) Which means I get my own private bathroom to get ready for work. Sweeeet.
Then I got lost on the way home. Oh well.
Not sure if this is a love or a hate. I work at the front office at my school, and there's all sorts of rules regarding student workers, one of which is that we can't work when school isn't in. My boss goes "I've put in for you to work between semesters." I just sort of stared at her blankly at the time, but I can't decide if I'm bummed because I was looking forward to that week off, or yay money doing nothing.
What I do at work.
