    I personalized my ticker with the new Ms. Marvel, Kamala Khan. I've never been into comic books (aside from Star Wars, wherein I'm into everything remotely related it), but I'm psyched about this new book, especially as a muslim american geek.

    Aww, thanks. I always wanted to do it as a child, and merely being an adult doesn't *have* to mean you become sensible, right?

    I sadly admit, I have done nothing nerdy today, my apologies.

    Talked to my seamstress about my summer cosplay - a femme!12th doctor. Gotta get in early, to avoid the rush like happened with femme!11th doctors. Excited!

    today I'm a nerd, because along with my standard bunch of exercising and writing, I'm working on crocheting an afghan based on a tetris pattern. My gosh, I want to wedgie myself just reading that! lol

    ...I can't wait to get home to spend some time with my laptop - it's the first time I've ever had Linux on my only computer.

    On the other hand, I _did_ install Ubuntu, so I'm maybe not that much of a nerd.

    On the gripping hand, I tried Fedora first, but canned it because there wasn't a driver for my wireless card.

    Today I am a nerd because I am currently designing and crocheting a Mario-themed cozy for my 3DSXL. :laugh:

    I'm temp-moving several GBs of M4V files from my laptop to my NAS and completely saturating a 100MB wired connection!

    My single 100Mb switch is the current botleneck. I eagerly anticipate the speeds that I'll get when I finally have time to upgrade my internal backbone with dual 1Gb managed switches. I already have the hardware sitting here, just need the time to do it. ZOMG the speeds I'll have then!!

    Finished Words of Radiance from Brandon Sanderson (the second one of the Stormlight archive) and I'm feeling all empty inside waiting for the next one now. So epic.
