Actually it is. Nice weather in Seattle means all the girls jump on the chance to wear the skimpiest possible thing. So many shorts that cut up with the thigh... rawr.
Also gotta love Running Start in community colleges here hahaha. Ah, now I feel like a perv (more so than usual).

Continuing on the perv path... God damn there is just a gaggle of extremely attractive girls out in the park today all lazing around in bikinis... And I am stuck inside, not doing my homework.

I apparently undervalue my work significantly...
I was bitching with a bunch of people on Skype about this simulation platform and I remarked how glad I am my competition basically gives no fucks about me so far and we out perform them feature for feature when one of the guys said:

[16:52:19] CD (Nou): eh?
[16:53:05] (zGuba): hmmmm no they aint competitorrs
[16:53:06] (zGuba):
[16:53:09] (zGuba): nvm
[16:53:17] CD (Nou): they know about ACRE?
[16:54:19] (zGuba): yes, but I doubt they ever used it - not like simulation experts play Arma coops daily
[16:54:32] CD (Nou): thats actually more impressive somehow
[16:54:52] Squelch: indeed
[16:55:39] (zGuba): well, let the competition keep truckin'
He is in a simulations course at uni and they reference my work...
Again, why the fuck did I go back to school?

It's like what the House Republicans say. You go to College to further your education, not to find a career that makes a lot of money.

You should've invested that money. Either in your own company or elsewhere.

I already invested in myself! Its taken longer than I thought to pay off though (thanks to drunken suicidal business partner who I finally divested myself of!).
Going back to school was the only way to get, ahem... funding, and still focus on my project.

How's going to school going to fund that? You're going to school to follow a curriculum. Your project takes a back seat.

Nah, school is easy.
Honestly, I need to divest myself of one other little hang up and I can probably start looking for outside capital again. We were trying to do that in '11 but my business partner was kind enough to be drunk on two of our conference calls. That was really good planning on his part.
