So they've TOTALLY found Tatooine! Well, not THE Tatooine, but it's still a real life equivalent. I found this article this morning and nearly squeeled with glee which would have woke Gil up, but I somehow managed to show some restraint. It did make ( Read more... )

two suns, tatooine, new planet, science

If it's cold shoulnd't it be HOTH? (I haven't done a weekend Star Wars Marathon in Ages.... it's overdue. And No I am not dressing up like a Wookie! (And don't you Dare convince TINO otherwise cause you no damn well I cave when he wants me to do something!)

And you're welcome. I figured Gil would be easy to please. You can always ask Antonio or Francis for other ideas too. They've been Best friends since like Kindergarten. Francis for SURE will know all of Gilbert's "Happy Buttons and Places" for future ideas.

It's been nicknamed Tatooine because of the two suns. Hoth doesn't share that feature despite it's frosty similarities. Nice observation, however. You do not even need to twist my arm in the slightest to get me to hold a Star Wars marathon. Be prepared to see me blubber like a pregnant lady partway through Attack of the Clones though. The end of the battle of Geonosis always gets to me. Jango being decapitated and little Boba holding his isa's severed head in his hands...too heartbreaking ( ... )

Well I see Francis Everyday in the Hall, he really seems to have his head down this last year. He's mainly in the Home Ec Hallways. The one class I share with him I know he's getting an A in the class he's doing well.

Then of course I also see him with his hand stuck Down Arthur's trousers and the Brit beating him senseless too. *laughs* Those two really are an ODD couple but it works.

Jaa, it really is the odd couples that seem to work so well isn't it? He does THAT in class? Ye gods, that's why I'm glad Gil and I don't share any classes. He can be just as bad sometimes. He tries it when we ride the tram into town. NOT in class though. No way. Well...maybe.

I haven't heard tell of nearly as many pranks happening this year, so the BTT must finally be buckling down. I know Gil finally got a B in something that wasn't Phys Ed just recently, so maybe it's a sign of the times improving.

That. Is. Awesome!

darth_eduard September 18 2011, 16:16:57 UTC

I know, right?

i_got_5_meters September 18 2011, 16:29:56 UTC

That IS actually pretty cool.

You didn't have to worry about waking me up. I sleep like a keg of beer...heavy.

darth_eduard September 19 2011, 06:53:03 UTC

I don't think even YOU would have been able to sleep through that cacophony of excited geekdom, Gil. You do tend to sleep very soundly though, which can make getting out of your sleepy bear hug a bit like trying to break out of a force-choke from Darth Vader whenever I have to get up in the middle of the night to use the facilities.

I don't mind though. It's like lifting weights having to periodically heft your sleeping carcass off of my own. I think I may be developing some semblance of muscular definition which is quite the new experience.

i_got_5_meters September 20 2011, 02:12:56 UTC

Well that's your fault for being such a freaking furnace when you sleep. Too damned comfortable.
