    All I wanted to do was talk about how awesome The Avengers was and my coworkers just weren't that interested.

    *sigh* ..because I turned down a date so I could spend the day online.

    My entire day has consisted of.

    Get up
    Rage at forums (fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu)
    Angry metal rage walk (2xfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu)
    Go out and get food to make for my friends pre-avengers party. (Every single damn movie all on my ps3 baby)
    Root my nook.

    I upgraded my laptop to Ubuntu 12.04 and used profanity because I had to re-install the Broadcom WIreless driver, as you do.

    Also, there were many "Community" references made at lunch today.

    People making Community references make me Changry.

    I love your day, and would love to trade. However, I will settle for "angry metal rage walk".

    I both used nerd-quality pickup lines in a thread AND specifically requested Star Wars lines to be thrown back at me. Then squealed giddily when they were.

    I have fantasies of someday being able to leap into the air, lock my legs around an opponent's throat, and snap his/her neck. Whilst yelling, "FINISH HIM". Plus, I use "whilst".

    I logged into my old FICS account, played some games of Fischer Random Chess for the first time, and had a darn good time at it.

    I postponed a date once because I had forgotten there was a soccer game on that night. I told him I had a migraine. He was kinda creepy when I met him the next day, so I didn't feel *quite* as bad.

    My friend got us Avengers tix for Saturday. Something came up so we can't go tomorrow night. Can't wait!

    I love the word "whilst" but people always look at me funny when I use it, so I rarely do. I also tend to get funny looks when I say "whom" and "whomever". Oh well.

    I asked my wife at lunch to borrow her digital camera, she asked why?

    I told her so I could take pics of all my 1st edition AD&D books and modules so I could post pics on MFP.

    that's awesome! Played 1st edition about a year ago for the hell of it - times have changed between that and 4th edition!

    I went to a grocery store earlier to pick up some things for my lunch later tonight for when I go into work. I paused infront of the automatic motion sensing doors and waved my hand pretending I was using the Force to open the sliding door.

    I do this too, my kids like to pretend they don't know me when I do.

    Me too!
    I alternate that with waving a pen and muttering Alohomora

    Today I'm a nerd because last night I had a cinematic dream that involved both Daenerys Targaryen from the George R.R. Martin "Song of Ice and Fire" series AND Peeta from "The Hunger Games" series in the same story. Weird....and geeky....and AWESOME! :tongue:

    Well, now. When my kiddos are doing Supermans in karate (lying prone, arms and legs outstretched as if in flight), they do it so incorrectly (bent at knees and elbows like sick cockroaches) and I quietly point an imaginary wand and whisper "Crucio".

    I found a closed beta key to The Secret World in my inbox this morning and immediately ran around my apartment complex yelling "Illuminati Bi*ches" ... at 6:30am. >>;;

    I've only been waiting (read: "stalking") this game since I saw it at PAX in 09...



    ....SO HAPPY ; ;
