Thursday Open Thread

[virescence]

Hello, group_xers! It's time again for another open thread. And this time someone put me in charge.

This week my brain is totally dominated by dissertation-writing/editing, so in my complete inability to think about anything else, I've decided to make the subject of this Open Thread: Achievements. What have you achieved lately that you're proud of? What are you working towards achieving, or hope to achieve someday in the future?

(Note: this doesn't just mean big achievements, or only academic ones - anything that you have or plan to achieve, however big or small, once-in-a-lifetime or day-to-day, come tell us about it! And don't feel compelled to stick to the topic if you have something far more interesting or important to share.)

Also note: today's open thread is public.

Oooh! The Dark is Rising!

When the Dark comes rising, six shall turn it back
Three from the circle, three from the track.
Wood, bronze, iron: water, fire, stone
Five shall return, and one go alone.

... yes, I remember that rhyme despite not having read the books in years. If you have no idea what I'm on about, you will once you've read them/

The workplace... has its moments XD

I read them years ago and don't remember much, but I've always been meaning to read them again. It's about time! :D
