Passed the first round of the JET application! I've got an interview in two weeks. I'm a bit nervous, but I think I'm well qualified and have got a handle on it.

I honestly think I've got a pretty good shot. I've been teaching ESL for a year now, and I can speak and read some Japanese. Which is a lot more than most applicants from what I understand.
FUCK YES. Finally fixed the stupid FPS leak that was causing our fucking Quake-looking game to pull 20 FPS in an empty room. Turns out Unity applies an animation modifier to everything when you import it, thus causing the animation updater to wig the fuck out. Fixed that and our FPS shot up to cap.
We can FINALLY get back to the fun business of covering people in acid and shit.
Welp, the 96 Corolla I got to replace my old car actually passed inspection on the first try, which is a new experience for me. Also made tacos tonight that were killer, shout outs to WuB for that guacamole recipe.
Just got home from my first session with my exercise trainer at a state-of-the-art gym called The Edge. I'm a little on the pudgy side, but I'm going to change that by getting into a regular exercise routine and a diet. The meeting went very well and they gave me an exercise routine I'm going to be dedicating myself to. Hopefully, by the time August rolls around, I will be a much more fit and healthier person than I am at present.
Had an amazing instance walking through town. A large group of wasted Welsh rugby fans were shouting and messing around in the town center. Wales had lost and it looked like things were going to get really bad. That is till one guy shouted "Who am I? I am Jean Valjean!" People laughed and started to cheer. I looked at said guy and as one we jumped up onto the steps and began possibly the worst most tone deaf version of "Do you hear the people sing". Close to twenty guys and a couple of coppers joined in. It was awesome. I finished by shouting "And I am Inspector Javert!" It was the best time of my life.
It's a harsh reality. Premature babies are nursed back to health on a steady diet of brownies and soft cookies. Depriving them of milk is child abuse.
Booyah! I just dropped off 300 oz (~9 liters) of my breast milk stash to save premature babies.
Double Booyah! We have some freezer space back and can finally reach all that meat that was at the bottom of the freezer before Max was born.
In an actual, zero snark serious question, what are the tax implications of that move? Is the organization you donated to a recognized charity? How do you go about calculating the actual value (time?) it took to build up that milk stash.
Oh man. Milk stash. I can't take the pun.
EDIT: Google tells me the IRS does not recognize donations of human tissue, but you can deduct for any travel/mileage.

If it was calculated by time/milk value I'd have a huge deduction on my hands. I can deduct mileage like you said in addition to my pumping supplies. I could've sold it all but, I think the premies will benefit more rather than one individual kid (and that 300 oz would only last them 10 days).
Sonic, I have another 100 I have to drop off today since they didn't have room for my entire 400+ donation yesterday.
