demosthenes turn

dear valentine,


yesterday you shed some light onto the enigma that is valentine. i then felt obligated to do the same about me. thanks ;)


in some ways i'm way cooler than you valentine, but in other ways i'm waayyyyyy nerdier!


your technology is trapped in 1990 right? crappy cell phone, no caller id, no texting. i'm the complete opposite. i own 2 iphones, one ipod nano, a mac book, and a mac mini. that's in addition to my hubby's iphone, three ipods, and imac.


so how could a super awesomely cool, mac gal be a major nerd? (hanging head in embarrassment....) i also own all 11 wheel of time books, and count down to the next installment's release date.

if you don't know what WoT is, congratulations. you are automatically cooler than me. if you know exactly what i'm talking about and share my excitement for nov 2009, then you should work on getting a life. (and i mean a real life, not an internet chat room life where you get to name yourself aes sedai of the green ajah and flirt with some warders..... not that i've ever done that.....)



for some reason i can never seem to complete a conversation without mentioning lines from one of the following: star wars, harry potter, or the princess bride. for example.... one of my friends recently named her new baby girl eisley. my first thought? no, it wasn't "oh what a cute name!" or "congratulations on the new addition".






it was "that baby looks like it blasted itself out of mos eisley". (once again, if you don't know what mos eisley is, you've just gained 2 cool points. if you realize that its a most wretched hive of villainy and scum please do not pass go and do not collect $200).

biggest pet peeve:

crumpled paper products. that includes napkins, tissues, paper straw wrappers, etc. they should all be folded neatly with neat creases. crumpling them into a wad of paper is grounds for divorce. it was in the prenup.


slightly smaller pet peeve:

when people (other than my hubby or mom) call me "dear", "hun", "honey" or any other term of endearment. i am not their "hun" and its demeaning to call me that, especially if you are a complete stranger.


i think i've gone on too long already, and you are probably all slowly backing away from your computers, trying not to attract attention, like you're running from the t-rex in jurassic park.

don't worry, i'm not crazy. at least, that's what i wrote in the note i left on robert pattinson's car last night.
