(Also -- anyone have a suggestion on the "proper" wings for a Nike-inspired avatar? These aren't quite right >_> )

You might try Dove White Kachina Dancer's Wings, or the Spirit Falcon (Falcon Wings option).

Ah, I recall that one Patch. surprised

Cu, that means you will be a bit closer at least. I can organize a tour of the former seat of civilization in my nation. 3nodding

I'll not pretend that's not a contributing factor on the "might want to do it" side.
The job is in games development. I can't pretend that's not what I've always wanted to do, but there's a contract position come up in the local uni too. I'll be applying to that one first.

Three days without a cigarette.
Before that, I had a few pulls on a smoke three times.
Before that, two cigarettes over four days.
I'm in the "nearly beaten the addiction" phase.

Today's turning out to be a lot harder than yesterday.
Cravings are really really difficult to ignore.

Further testing has revealed that I don't have dyscalculia. I have an LD-NOS with all the features and symptoms of dsycalculia, but also with broader pattern-sensing troubles, certain language-related difficulties, and a s**t working memory.

Not sure how I feel about this.

Courage is not the absence of fear, not ignoring fear, it is overcoming fear.
You are more than equal to this.

On behalf of ASD sufferers everywhere, welcome to the club.
In some country's you get free hats/t-shirts/key-rings.
In Ireland, you get an extra half hour on exams in university.

I just want the cravings to be over.

Is ASD autism-spectrum disorder? That's the only google result that makes any sense in context. Really not sure how I feel about that, which may be why my therapist didn't bring it up if that's what it is--I was probably pretty visibly disturbed by being told that I, of all people, have trouble with language.

As for extra test-time, that's really no help because, unless it's math or otherwise heavily number-oriented, I'm a really, really good and fast test-taker. xD

Yup.

Why would dsy* being ASD impact how you would feel about being dys*?
