    So all of us have either done extra work for a language teacher or are language peoples employing students.

    Since posting gay things became the new hippy/cool.

    I smiled because we got a special Two For One deal today at the buffet dinner I went to. Furthermore, it was much improved compared to my previous trip a few years ago. Perhaps it's to attract customers in times of lower economic activity (and they'll try to make up for it with the casino), but I had a shit-ton of prawns, Moreton Bay Bugs, smoke salmon and oysters that I totally didn't expect to be there.

    The fact that I managed to hit the right spot (full, but not I-don't-want-to-eat-for-a-week full) made it even better. I have a nasty habit of overeating when I go to rare and tasty occasions.

    Ditto, I was able to get the main thing I wanted with a little bonus, so everything worked out great. Thank you, Amazon.

    Apple's Australian site sent an email earlier in the week telling me there'll be Black Friday Specials. I was all excited thinking such a custom would come to Australia, and was hoping to pick up either a new smartphone or a laptop.

    Turned out their "discounts" weren't even 10%, and no discounts on the iPhone 4S. I was a sad little buffalo that day, but Skyrim eased some of that.

    Didn't really smile, but I was able to meet my neighbors for the 1st time last night. They are 2 young women who seem friendly.

    Maybe they still won't think you are perpetually angry even if you didn't smile to them. At least they won't think you are a lecher.

    I never smile to my neighbours. I only look at them with suspicion and greet them ambiguously.

    I flat out ignore them, do the whole "gaze upon the horizon" thing when i walk pass them. They either think I'm rude or possibly autistic.

    If memory serves, your neighbours are also your family's neighbours. Your opinion is only valid once you finally hit the road and leave your folks to eat the dust, finding your very own neighbours to either ignore, treat with rudimentary but cold politeness, or be friendly with. Or even hate.

    I experienced that on Black Friday, Buff. After hours and hours of Skyrimming, when I went out into the real world with all the idiots and fools, I was very disappointed that I couldn't run a sword through anyone who got in my way.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Just saw a Pileated Woodpecker in my backyard woods, poking around a bunch of logs. For size comparison, these things are the size of large crows. I'd seen glimpses of them before flying through the woods, but this one stuck around for a good twenty minutes, so I got a real good look at the underside of the wings and it thwacking away on fallen logs and dead stumps.

    Very cool.
