    I was watching my cat playing with his new toy and thought; 'Figures my cat's not a Jedi'

    I ran on my lunch hour, so I have to leave early to get to the comic book store and then to the theater to pick up my Batman Trilogy tickets before dinner!

    Almost done re-watching all seasons of Lost on Netflix...


    AHHHHH I'm only halfway through the 3rd season for the second time around on Netflix!

    I decided to watch them again after seeing a fantastic interview with Damon Lindelof that was supposed to be about Prometheus, but worked it's way back to Lost.

    My people. I watch one episode of Lost a week with forum friends. We started when the show ended and we're midway through season 5 now.

    But TODAY I'm a nerd because I just ordered my next mud run shirt.

    Whosoever wears this shirt, if he be worthy....

    That shirt is FANTASTIC! But I'm struggling to imagine it making it through a mud run. Cotton and all.

    I wore my Captain America shirt for Warrior Dash and though it got filthy it all came out in the wash. Which was kind of a let down. I wanted it to look worn and beat up. It's cotton and it seems fine now.

    My plan is to wear a different hero shirt for every race I do. I want each one to resemble the actual costume. And I MAY even start framing them with the race bib and medal. How cool would that be? A wall of Cap, Thor, Iron Man...

    I think he meant more that the mud would stick more and weigh you down, but I think it will be fine (you can always take it off and run shirtless if you need to).

    Also you should totally see if that girl on etsy will make you some under-armor fabric super hero shirts. Seems like she might. You can't be wonder woman though, I have dibs.

    That's exactly what I meant. I have a Tough Mudder in September, and I will now be looking for these fabled super hero UA shirts.

    Usually when I'm in half prick mode I'm the one doing all the apologizing.

    Went and got my new laptop yesterday. First thing I did was download Firefox, second thing I did was start installing my games. Psh, who uses their new computer for browsing? (I'm on my old one right now...). Nearly had a heart attack when it ran everything on Ultra High settings with 0 lag, and between 70-100 FPS. :noway:

    Edit: I think I need to wake up more before trying to type coherent sentences next time

    My boss just called and asked why her wireless mouse isn't working. I asked her if she's tried turning off and on again. :laugh:

    Better would be to ask if it was plugged in and then laugh hysterically (Because I would)

    Today I'm a nerd because

    my husband and I have the blow up bed in the living room so we can sleep, eat, and play video games without having to leave the living room much( we take turns on the xbox lol). One of us naps,the other plays.. we also have the desktop in the living room so I can play my MMORPGs online while he plays Skyrim and vice versa.

    Not "I'm a nerd" related, per se, but GOD DAMN this slow airport internet is killing me! What's worse is that this will seem super fast once I get to my parents' house... *breathes* it's only until Tuesday...

    :( that sucks! I agree with Arthemise just gotta find the right game maybe? Hmmmm does she like classic board games? my hubs and I try to find as many games as we can to play together like monopoly, and hasbro family night games. We love the scrabble :)

    Yeah, board games have been something we've gotten into in the past. I was speaking more to the bringing the bed out and playing console/computer games. She loved playing Draw Something on the iPad when that was all hot.
