Most of the entries will be public; only things of a personal nature will be friends-locked. There are certain things that I would rather people I know IRL not read.

My roommate has gone home for Thanksgiving, giving me the apartment all to myself for five days.

Never has an icon been so appropriate.

OK, I'm crap at remembering holidays. Last March, I noticed it was Pi Day at like 11:45PM.

So just in case I forget to say this tomorrow: Happy Star Wars Day.

MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU!

There. Now I won't have a *headpalm* moment on May 5th.

geekery, star wars

Pack up, go home, YOU'RE THROUGH!

I just got back from an Aladdin Sing-Along, followed by a 90's music video sing-along. Guys, I totally didn't realize I ever knew all the words to "Tearing Up My Heart," but I guess I do. On the other hand, I definitely remember writing down the lyrics to "Flagpole Sitta" and putting them on the front of my 3-ring math binder when I was bored in ( Read more... )

I'm 4 episodes into Twin Peaks, and I just realized season 1 is only 8 episodes long. Considering the pilot was 93 minutes long, I'm more than halfway done with S1, and I've heard S2 sucks. WHYYYYYYY ( Read more... )

I've seen four films so far, along with an event in which Brian Williams interviewed Robert De Niro (!!), and my faaaaavorite thing that I've seen at Tribeca so far, even better than watching Brian Williams geek out over Goodfellas, was the film I saw tonight, Romantics AnonymousIt's about ( Read more... )

I was trying to convince my friend E that Thomas Jefferson in the John Adams miniseries is really (really really) attractive. She said he was too "jowly," and when I tried to challenge her to a duel, I accidentally ended up challenging her to a JEWEL instead. *facepalm* Well, I guess there can only be one Alexander Hamilton. But still. Sorry, TJ. I ( Read more... )

I've just returned from a the sneak peek of the first two episodes of the new season of Doctor Who at the Bell House. Now that I've discovered that I live within walking distance of it, I think I'll probably be going there quite a bit. They have an Aladdin Sing-Along next weekend.

I had a customer come up to me in the store today--I'd recommended World War Z and The Hunger Games to her a while back, and she loved them and wanted more recs. Wow, just. Strange. The idea of a bookstore being a place where the helpful staff happily provide recommendations to appreciative customers? Not so much at my store, where customers want a ( Read more... )

I could write a long, rambling post about what happened today, but it boils down to two things:
