I just auditioned for Music Man, and got the bass part in the quartet, which was exactly what I wanted!

It will probably just be some suit or something...

Actually, two suits, since I'm also in the first scene as a different person.

(Also, just having a job after several months of searching is extremely exciting in itself. :))

I am not sure what to think about this. My first thought is "man, what a bad negotiator Dsell is, underselling himself by one whole position". My second is, "Boy, what a great company Dsell must have found!"  Congrats.

Well again, first job after searching for months, etc. I wasn't gonna turn down much. :P Although I did turn down a sales position earlier in the summer and fully stand by that choice.

Basically, I'm entering a pretty large and established department in a company. There's a hierarchy that (unless you have a fair amount of experience) you're slotted into, with the chance to move up after as little as a few months or as much as a couple years. They moved me into that second position directly.

I think it was some combination of good timing on my part, need on their part, a strong interview/resume, and a pretty good score on their entrance competency exam (the Wonderlic test, if you're familiar with it. I got a 39, which I was inwardly appalled by, but they were pretty impressed).

I asked someone out and they said yes. Feels good after essentially being dumped 5 months ago.

Yeah I mean, all of us could tell where this was going, you two were the only ones that still denied it. The sexual tension was palpable since whenever the Montreal meetup happened.

The only question left is: are you going to adopt Markusin?

Today I passed my candidacy exam for my chemistry doctorate program.  :)

It certainly is a relief to have that accomplishment done!

Yesterday I won a local chess tournament with 6 out of 6. Which isn't actually all that impressive when you see that my break-even score against the field I faced was 5.31, but I was happy with the way I played in all six games. Which doesn't happen very often.

Funny, the groomsmen split 2-2 on that front.  Two Windsors + two Eldredges (and the groom was in the middle with a Trinity).  If I'm going to be spoiling a tux with a notch lapel and a long tie (matching the bridesmaids), I'd much rather wear an unusual knot instead of a standard knot.
