So, apparently, I featured prominently in somebody else's dream recently.  I'm sure I've popped up in people I know's dreams from time to time, but this is the first time I know for certain that I did, since the person in question's dream actually made enough of an impression on her that she related it to me.  She's the costume designer and make-up ( Read more... )

So, I'm a little pissed right now.  Hollywood totally stole an idea I had for a movie, but they're doing it in the shittiest way possible.  I'd thought that with 2012 and the end of the world coming up (those Mayans are never wrong), it'd be neat to make a movie about this date.  Clearly, the cool way to do it would be to have the movie set in the ( Read more... )

Today (Yesterday technically), we witnessed history.  We witnessed the future.  Well done, America.  Thanks for making this a country I can maybe start to be proud of again.

So, I was in my first earthquake today!  It apparently was magnitude 5.6, although it was centered about 30 miles away.  I was down in my subbasement lab working, and suddenly the room starts shaking, and I'm totally like wtf!?  It wasn't very intense, and nothing fell, but it lasted a couple seconds and was pretty crazy.  While after the fact I'm ( Read more... )

While using the urinal today, the button to my pants came off right in my hands, no kidding.

Oh, and I've met this summer exchange student at Caltech named Veronica, whom I've taken to calling the female version of me.  Take that how you will ;)
