I received a care package in the mail from the lovely @Lucine with many amazing things in it. I will not state all of them right now but part of it was homemade goodies including these ridiculously amazing brownies and truffle-type thingies. I AM IN CHOCOLATE HEAVEN PEOPLE.

OI WHERE'S MINE?!?!?

Got a job welding at Caterpillar, dating a cute little redhead that's half a foot shorter than I am, don't have to shave off beard for work anymore, girlfriend loves beard, lost ten more pounds, found a 24 hour gym that's only 20 dollars a month. Yay life!

Worked my first special event at the new job. I took people on frog hikes, we went to the swamp, caught and looked at frogs. I chattered about the importance of wetlands and gave basic info on amphibian biology, and made frog calls. The stars were out with a sliver of a moon, the frogs were singing, and the guests were enthusiastic. Couldn't have asked for a better evening.  We also found a spotted salamander and salamander egg masses. A lot of the kids had never touched a frog before (that has now been remedied).

Yay for liking what I do!       

P.s. Bonus, I wore  sexy boots.

P.p.s if you find ill-fitting, olive green hip waders sexy

P.p.s. I do     

What must one do to partake in these frog hikes?

So. My X-ray department committee decided to host another fun event for all of us again. This time, it's... An escape the room game!

Seriously, my rave is that I didn't realize Singapore had these sort of companies who make escape room games. They're actually pretty popular.

Seems like it has a good review; now that I know it exists.. People I know from Achaea need to come down and play with me as a team now :C

Minor rave: its always surprising and heartwarming to see others remember me after how many years without contact at all, the last instance being my freshman year of HS. I guess kindness and a smile really does make impressions.

The first time - NICE!!-
The second made me want to rip my eyes off and scrub all my skin off as I try to smush it with said above mentioned boot. OMG NO

Taraus

eeee I got a new turtle

Shiggy now has a wife (Mortimer, Morty for short.)

Pics soon, but she's a red-eared slider (he's a yellow-bellied). Within 5 minutes of introduction, he was riding her like a pony. Atta boy.

Just introduced her to the big pond that'll be her new home, Shiggy's showing her around the digs. They're so adorable!!

Whaaaat. Goodbye sleep.

I like Colbert but he's not right for this role.  I would have preferred to see Conan return to the 11:35 slot as part of the effyou NBC alums

Today I was finally able to submit my resignation to a job that I likely able to work before now. Being able to leave the stressful and irritating life of retail is a huge Rave.

 

also rave to @ayleth @ravien @wysteria for their constant level of support and encouragement.  

Taraza

That should have been "likely quit before now" oops.

Wysteria

Shout outs to @Ellodin, @Tukio, @Taraza, @Minxie, @Oceana, @Kyriella, @Ainia, @Jurixe, @Orzaansyn, @Mishgul, @Aelyn, @Aluciana and countless others for keeping me sane, real and connected.

Funeral was held yesterday morning. My team attended in uniform and we took up a large chunk of the attendees. I'm still numb even though it's “over“. After the ceremony, my other close friend (the blandarin guy for those who may recall) and I went to the park and just sat there for two hours. I've lost a friend, but gained a family in my team who are closer than ever now.

The following was our only conversation in that time — rather poignant, I suppose:

Ravien

@Taraza You're welcome You have it any time.

Square Enix has one of the most amazing customer supports I've contacted so far. First there's an issue with my pre-order (internal communication of my game delivery company checked the normal edition instead of the CE, so they cancelled it later and upgraded it, which failed) this issue resulted in me not getting the pre-order Early Access code for FF14:ARR (ps4).

So I open a ticket with them. Not even five hours later I get a formal apology, an extra month free trial, and a brand new early access code.

My day is officially made
