Yeah, so there's actual news to put here!
I'm engaged. :o
It's weird being engaged... well, not weird with HER per se, but the idea of it. Didn't think I'd actually find a girl that I was 100% happy with, and yet I was proven wrong. I also didn't expect it to just... happen. It kinda fell in my lap (not literally, I'd hate to impale her :o ) and there ya have it!
So yeah, it's gonna happen in May.
So, um...
pie~

Yeah, I've been... away from here for quite a while. It's been rough:
I moved again, closer to work. I have a ladymoogle. :o I have two new roomies, one a coworker and the other the ladymoogle's former roomie. I'm dealing with all kinds of fun work-related stuff, but of course I can't actually discuss any of it.
But life's still pretty good. Challenges come and go, but as long as I don't hang myself by my trousers I'm doin' fine.
So stop worrying, dammit! I have it all covered. :D Overall it's grand, just the thousand little complications that keep cropping up.

The short of it is, I found a wonderful gal who seems to "get" me, and I had a job interview for a kickass programming job. For once, it seems that my life may be getting back to pre-divorce levels of happiness.
And now, notice how freaking nuts I am (THANKS DELNEY FOR HELPING ME PROVE THAT I R TEH NUTS)

Yeah, I've been a little lax in updating this thing lately but hey, no time like the present right?
Yesterday was my birthday. I couldn't take the day off to hide in my blankie so instead I ate lunch with coworkers and dinner (Japanese!) with my roomie. And yes, I had an alcoholic beverage (small bottle of sake). The people who really know me will be shocked right now. :o
As I usually try to do on my birthday, I came up with a couple of resolutions for what to do with my new year ahead of me.
- I'm going to work on my lil' Japanese books on how to write hiragana and kanji.
- I'm going to get some sort of certification for the work I'm doing now.
I d'no how it'll all end up, but at least I'm gonna try. :D

I was talking about religion and stuff, and eventually gay marriage was brought up, and figured I'd post this for posterity.
I believe that instead of the government legislating what marriage is, we should seperate it - all marriages can be converted to civil unions with all the benefits they currently enjoy and allow any two adult humans of sound mind to enter into them, and let churches consecrate it as they would like so they can be unioned before whatever god or goddess they want. The state handles the state's bits, the church handles the church's bits and everyone's happy.

Why does it surprise people that I'm not always fuzzy and huggy and silly and nawty?
Some on a message has a habit of posting rather depressive stuff and for once posted that he was pretty giddy 'cuz he found a girl (because we all know, once you start hitting it with someone of the opposite gender life feels grand for a bit ;) ), which elicited some comments to the effect of "hey, yesterday you were anything but happy and content... what, life isn't dreadfully gray and just a long wait until you die?" So my response was "You can cut into the front of the line, if you take it upon yourself to do so" (all paraphrased) and people say "this is a colder, meaner Fuzzy".
I've thought of ending myself, yes. I'm sure I'm not the only one. I'm not always happy and peachy - it doesn't make me bad, it means that I've seen the world and been around the block a few times. For the longest the principal reason for not ending myself was the thought that I had a purpose in life, some reason why I didn't die in childbirth or be aborted (seeing as my mother abused every substance known while I was in the womb, and would have been aborted if she had used the money given to her for that as opposed to buying said substances). After my divorce, that reasoning didn't seem to work as well, so I've been pondering everything trying to figure out reasons to live. In the end, I'm here because... I'm here. When it's time for me to move on, I'm sure fate will provide a way to do so. Until then, I don't see a reason to do anything about it. Every day shows me something new, and as long as I have a direction I'll keep wandering and doing what I can with what I have.
I'm not morbid necessarily, nor am I self-defeating. Maybe depressed sometimes, but I think everyone is. It's just one of the things I've thought a lot about and came to a decision as opposed to jumping to a snap-judgement based solely on self-preservation. I choose to live. When I stop choosing that, I'll be done.

Okay, I'm typing this out so I'll remember later, and thusly be able to more explain why I said this to a friend of mine who went out with a girl from Missouri, went to her house with beer (she bought it), did interesting drinking games that involved talking about very naughty things indeed and in the end, was turned down.
She's "southern". The kind of girl who had a rather religious, closeted upbringing that mostly revolved around her small clique of friends who didn't know many more people than she did. She may have had sexual encounters but, well, she hasn't had a lot of variation nor a recurring boyfriend of any sort (or if so, all they understood was putting Tab A into Slot B and agaitating = good). In their mind, they're experienced but when facing someone who's actually had sexual encounters that involved decidedly more they choke as it's more than a few steps beyond their understanding. In their mind they're nawty and they've HEARD of some of the nawtier things in life (as in, toys or pain/pleasure, etc) but certainly haven't DONE them (note above - no steady boyfriends or one who is a good ol' boy and ain't done none o' that thar kin-ky stuff the yankees do). Probably abuses a vice or two (alcohol, tobacco or both) but nothing big.
I saw this rather often when I was in high school and even past it in rarer and rarer quantities (well, I haven't lived in the south for a while, sooo).
At least, that's my theory, and as a self-proclaimed peoplewatchermoogle that's what I know.
I feel sorry for 'em tho... Methinks his pride may have been thumped. :(

PhilosophicalMoogle:
Be happy for the good times you have. They're fleeting and you'll only recognize them as good times after they're gone, most times. They're what shape what happiness is to us.
Be happy for the bad times as well. Yes they suck, but it's within these times that we understand how good the good times are and gain perspective on where the bottom is. They remind us that growth of character comes from pain sometimes as well as pleasure, and there's always a lesson in the agony of a downward swing in life.
And always, ALWAYS be thankful for those around you. Other people need to know that you appreciate them, as you probably like being appreciated. Go give those special people hugs and thoughts of encouragement.

I post a lil' snippet on a message board I frequent:
Blue moon of the year, full moon, the moon is in cancer... everything says "emotions will be in overdrive, doubly so for water signs".
Just a helpful reminder.
Then the thread turns into a deep, meaningful discussion on how astrology is bad and how Christians are bashed.
I need to find a new message board. :(

Just me, pondering life again. It seems that options and ideas are presented, prepared for and snapped away like that last gust of wind in autumn that blows the leaves as they fall. One week I'm completely giddy about certain things, 24 hours later I'm nervous, then later saddened and dismayed, then learning to cope afterward. It's a strange, strange cycle, and I continue to learn that it's rough having to depend on other people, as I'm pretty sure it's been difficult for other people to depend on me. I have self-confidence in every aspect except romantic, able to deal with any situation except with someone whom I like... but then again, I may have to go look for another roommate soon so none of the above matters. It's not his fault... well, it is a little but blaming people doesn't help a thing.
I guess I have a bit of stuff to think about again.
Oh, and she never contacted me again so it's a no-go methinks.

They say he's innocent. Now it's not our place to say one way or the other whether he's actually guilty - speculation could go all freaking day long. What I DO know, however, is that there is one reason why he's walking today:

This was tapped, and the prosecution didn't deliver, so they lost. Bottom line.

Yeah, the Battlefield 2 demo came out and I grabbed a copy of it. Thus far, I've discovered that... it takes for freaking ever for the servers to come up. Like, many, many minutes. Not only that, it seemed to suck out all of the processes on my CPU and disable Ctrl-Alt-Del, which means after having waited a half hour (after it came up once, I accidentally clicked on "local servers", re-clicked to refresh, then after they all FINALLY came up thought "ooo, maybe I can sort by ping so I can have all the stuff in one place" and it seeming to attempt to refresh AGAIN) I gave it the one-finger salute to the power button. Sheesh. :|
And yet again, I remember that there is a ska song for every occasion. *sighs and turns the music up louder*

Yeah, had the machine done last night, all but running all the Office stuff to make sure he didn't get anything popped up that might confuse him. So that was pretty shweet.
And tonight should be better than last night, I hope. :o
Altho last night was pretty... Lots of nice bits o' lightning. Hanging out on the balcony with teh roommate (he was playing M:tG on his laptop) was great as the sky exploded every so often with white light.
And, uh... yeah. I liek caek.
