I had been in agony all week with a constant flu and thinking I had failed my last CHEM 121 midterm (VSEPR theory, resonance hybrids, and basic quantum numbers). Now my flu is pretty much cleared up and turns out I passed the midterm.
Even managed about 5% higher than class average.
Feels good man.

Finally got my damn orders, I'm starting work in a prosecutor's office at Quantico on Monday! And Sarah and I found an apartment today, which I can move into next week. It's been a productive weekend.

Paintball. In the pouring rain. For three hours. Something like 3,000 paintballs in total shot between everyone in the group. Funnest thing I've done in ages*. I want to try again when the snow comes, and again next summer.
* White water rafting on a category 5 river this summer was also pretty cool. Took about the same amount of time and cost about the same amount of money, too. I could see doing both of them again and again...

We found out we have a pair of burrowing owl in our garden.
My wife is so all over them, I'm starting to fear she'll shoo them off with all the kawaii.

Man, life has a funny way of working out. So Denmark is OK but nothing fancy, grad school actually really dissapointing, I am doing pretty much nothing, but fuck it: I feel super happy. And a girl who probably was the source of half of my whiny posts (regarding to girls anyhow...) has moved counties and in with me. It's like a slackers vacation; most of the time we just wake up at 2 in the afternoon, make some breakfast, watch some silly movies... I just don't wanna grow up just yet.

Spent the entire afternoon in the park taking photos for a friend's class project. Met a bunch of people that I really enjoyed (there were about 15 people in the shoot, and I only knew the one friend). Good times.

Fun fact, I worked as a referee at a paintball field for a year or so, it was great fun... minimum wage, but I got a giant discount on admission and paintballs. One of the few jobs where you can get shot by the customers.
It's great fun that I highly recommend people try at least once.

This here is just about the key to happiness, as far as I'm concerned.

Given your nick / (missing) AV of an eagle, this made me chuckle, like you'd just found a snack.
