Hello? Is... is this thing on? The red light means it's on, right? Or do I... I have to push a button, don't I? Well, which one? There's like ten! The black one? They're all black!

    Motorboard hats look really stupid.

    I got a reminder of that on Thursday, when I officially graduated from York University. But, as I was walking back to the car with my family, BSc in hand, I realized something. Maybe they're supposed to look stupid. Because I was wearing the bloody thing with pride. And if I was wearing something that stupid with pride, then I had to be really proud of myself.

    I don't know how many of you have been following the New Horizons mission...

    ... but I have. And the stuff it's sending back is super exciting.

    So There, They're has been canonized.

    Please excuse me while I giggle like a schoolgirl.

    Time to celebrate all things circular again.

    And today's a very special pi day indeed. On a related note, I'm attempting to post this as close to 9:26 and 53 seconds as I can.

    So, yeah. Grab some pie, doodle some circles, calculate the radius of the universe or something. The sky's the limit on pi day.

    Today's a special day.

    Because starting today, I can go waltz across the border into the United States, walk into the first bar I see, sit down, and order a beer. And nobody will be able to do anything about it.

    Then I'll stare at said beer awkwardly after remembering that I hate beer and don't drink. And then quietly ask for a virgin screwdriver or something.

This might be too soon, but I've never been one for waiting. · 10:39pm Nov 3rd, 2013

Long story short: I'm looking for a new editor. This position may be temporary or more or less permanent, depending on willingness and performance.

And in case you were wondering, Bronius has performed admirably to date. My searching for an editor has nothing to do with poor performance on his part. It has everything to do with him going off to basic training. At this moment, he's probably in a hotel room, dreading his first day on base tomorrow. Or working his way through the free movies offered by the hotel. Or both. Anyway, that's beside the point. He's not here, and won't be for a couple months. And in the meantime, I need someone to fill in for him.

Perks of the job: see my hoerswords in their uncut, unedited glory, well before they are released to the public. You may criticize and pick apart my works to your heart's content, exchange witticisms in the comments, and, should the need arise, provide a target for me to bounce ideas off. The lucky one chosen will have the great honour... no, the privelage, to be exposed to the inner machinations of my creative drive.

Oh, and I'll probably also expect you to yell at me to get my stuff done quicker. That would probably be to all of our benefits.

Those of you who are interested can contact me via PM, and will be subjected to a rigorous (not really) background check and performance evaluation (you'll have the option to look over a recent chapter of my current project and submit your thoughts). Should you prove yourself worthy, you will receive the position and all the benefits that goes with it (health insurance, hazard pay and all other benefits are waived). In the case of multiple promising applicants, it will be settled by a duel to the death with a weapon of my choice (probably a bat'leth).

I'm actually at the hotel bar, enjoying happy hour. Arguably my last in a while. Drinks tonight, sweat tomorrow. Good luck fan!
