The wedding was spot on, the honeymoon was very nice indeed and the new job isn't bad. Better than the last place so far, now that I've settled in. Very weird at first though, as the last one was my first proper job after uni.

It'll amaze you
A US state - Louisiana - that almost fell under a dictatorship in the 1930's.

It's political manipulation in the "free world" that makes Stalin look like an amatuer.

Edit - totalitarian. Better spelling. Demagogue. Scary man.

Hope she starts to feel better soon.

I think we are sometimes
It's conditioning, expectations, assumptioms and - inherently - pride, informed by those assumptions.

I've been a man today, in that I've conformed to an expected set of behaviours, and fucked off someone with a more flexible set of behavioural standards.

Bedtime.

nothing interesting
just talking to some dude on a dating site, seems to be going well, suggested we meet up (after he'd hinted that we might) then I don't hear from him. Could be nothing, but this sounds like a continuation of my unbeaten run of scaring guys off.

I've had this in the past with texts.
As I see it, the built-in problem with text-based communication is that you can't get a tone of voice across, so there's a much greater chance of misinterpretation by either party. Even more so when responses aren't instant.

It also didn't help that I have a spade-like face and can't smile without it looking like a pained grimace.

No, it's the evaluation team who do that.
We make products for the major UK retailers and some European ones; their claims requirements are more rigorous than most branders', and strictly limited to things which can be substantiated with quantitative proof.

I'm a product developer, what I do is take the marketing team's briefs and turn them into real products which not only fulfil their requirements, but are also reasonably priced and easy to make with current plant equipment.
