After almost a whole year, I finally managed to get a job. With all that learning to write amazing cover letters and CV's, what really got me the job was something along the lines of "You are young and you are willing to do something other people consider tiring and boring, oh and you are okay with working overseas too."

Thanks, but receiving no invoice is not really that much of an accomplishment ;) (wonder why some consider me to be self-centered.)
Just kidding, good going, Wukunlin.

I went to the post office to get some stamps and became exited when I saw they now have BATMAN stamps!

What's especially cool is that when you buy a page, 4 of them are 4 different versions of the bat light symbol, and these stamps are round! In my whole life I have never seen a round stamp.

Am I too weird? The are two Starbucki (plural?) near my place. I realized I preferred one because it has square tables, which I prefer, since these have a more "clearly-defined" edge/boundary (i.e., it is defined by a straight line ) and not circular tables, where the edge/boundary " keeps moving". Besides, you can put two square tables together, to get a rectangle ( not quite a square, but in the same family) . With circles, two tables can only be made tangent to each other at one point, and cannot form anything close to a circle when put together.

I have jury duty this week.
To non-US PFers, jury duty might seem to be a cultural oddity. When someone is accused of a crime here, the accused can choose to have his/her case decided by 12 citizens chosen at random (a jury), rather than a judge. So, I've been chosen. I can't discus the case now but perhaps in a few days I will, when it's over.
But this morning as I was driving to the court house, a huge bald eagle flew right over my car, only ~3 meters above me! So much 'Merica!

I thought everyone was doing a small dance in my honor today. Then I realized it was raining outside and people were just wiping their shoes in the
rug at the entrance, where I was sitting.

I was watching a documentary of the band Queen and it is pretty admirable to note the complete lack of pettiness between the members. They never had a serious separation, if any, and after more than 20 years playing together, now being disbanded, the members all show respect, affection and admiration for each other. There is the sad/dark side of this , of some feeling suicidal after Fred Mercury died.
