What do you guys think of the new trailer for Rogue One: A Star War Story?

Thanks for the suggestions! I checked the substitute thing, but unfortunately in WV you have to have a Bachelors, and I only have an Associates. And yeah, I'm definitely going to be checking all my options, but it's hard to find a job in tech in southern West Virginia. My supervisor is applying for jobs in North Carolina, but she can afford to relocate if she gets a job there, whereas I can't. =/

@Wintermoot, I thought you got a BS already?  Why only an AS?  With you working at the college, you could get a discount towards pursuing a degree there, can you not?

Also, for your skills, NC has a big tech centre, as in other places, and most companies can pay for your relocation.  You need to look seriously. 

However, your lack of a Bachelor's may be a limiting factor, unless you show to employers that you're wanting to pursue a Bachelor's, or even a Master's. 

Start actively looking.  Don't be afraid to look outside the state.  I am doing that as well.

@taulover

I joygasmed....oh so much. 

Moot, that sounds pretty terrible. :/

How did things get to this point?

The College claims reduced enrollment and state budget cuts, which are certainly legit reasons, but the suddenness of all these measures leads me to believe there's been some mismanagement of the budget too. You don't go from things being tight but alright to being in an 'extreme budget crisis' virtually overnight. Nobody had any clue that these things were even a possibility three weeks ago. One of the people they laid off today was just hired two or three months ago. >_>

It's a community college, so they only provide certificates and Associates. When I graduated with my Associates, it wasn't possible to pursue a Bachelors without either driving a long distance or relocating...neither of which was possible because of my full-time job. The good news is that a new college is moving into town next year and they'll offer a Bachelors, but that's a long ways from now...

And I wouldn't move to NC after they passed a law allowing discrimination of LGBT people. I'm sure there's other locations even if I considered relocation.

@Wintermoot can you talk to me on IRC please about this?  Or just to talk in general?  I tried querying you twice....

I really, truly despise the goddamn winter.

So I got my new laptop.  My ex/friend Steven ended up selling it to me for half the price he got it for.  It's quite an upgrade from the old laptop, and I'll be able to play Diablo 2 with ease now.  ^.^

So I had another seizure the other day. I've had about one a month since last March. Luckily once again all I ended up doing was biting my tongue something fierce. This time I saw it coming far enough back that I had time to run over to the couch (and in the presence of another person) so I wouldn't hit my head on anything. There are more to come surely, but if I can get the jump on them like that every time from now on I think I'd be quite happy. ^_^

If you're okay, that the best out of it! I hope for you, you'll be able to know when they come like this again.

Oh dear. I hope that you're OK. Have you seen a doctor?

Been a quiet day in Wintreath...

And it's Friday night as well... what's going on do people have lives all of a sudden.

Lately? Not really. I do have an appointment scheduled for...sometime. I don't remember when. Although I don't see my neurologist every time I have one because it isn't really necessary. Regardless I always seem to be okay which is what really matters.

No one talks to me.

Then again, no one seems to care

Ah. Well I hope you are fine.
