I know I'm going to have to just suck it up and be happy for him, I could just do without the possibility of all his family in my flat going on about it - in a way it makes me feel like they're trying to subtly hint that I'm not good enough for him. He still hasn't officially told me, so I don't know all the facts yet, I guess I might feel better if I know what's going on.
God I wish I could study myself for my dissertation next year, think I could go into quite some detail!
ages ago we mutually make a pact that if either one of us were offered an opportunity for a job in the future, no matter how interesting, how much money, how amazing it is, we'd make sure we put the other one of us first before deciding what to do about it, and we both agreed if that meant turning it down, then that's what we'd do.

See now I think that's a terrible idea. If one of you were to get an offer of an amazing job that they really want but won't take it because the other one doesn't want you to it will not end well. You two are both young and need to take every advantage that is thrown at you. If you don't, you'll end up blaming one another for roads not taken!

I remember one of my workmates bought a second-hand breast pump from ebay several years ago, and I thought it was gross, but having bought and used a new one myself, I would actually buy secondhand if I needed it again. It's all sterilised. Having a baby makes you feel a whole lot less squeamish about things like that.

While everyone from the office is out at one meeting or the other, stage a Coup d'état and sieze control.
Build a little fort out of desks and chairs with just a little eye slit (for vision and poking a broom at intruders through), and demand anyone who comes near "knocks the secret knock" before entering.
You could also claim independence and set up diplomatic relationships with foreign powers. If you can convince the American government your former masters were communists you can pretty much guarentee a large cash injection to reform and restore your homeland to it's former glory.
Either that or they'll put you in a jacket without sleeves, lock you in a room with padded walls, and may require you to wear a Hannibal Lecter mask.
Either way, which conference to attand will be the last of your worries ever again
