.....A BROWN STICK!!!
yes, yes i love bad jokes, in every way, whether they're offensive, nerdy or just plain awful! another one (awful) would be:
"What do you call cheese that's not yours?
NACHO CHEESE!" (you need to say it out loud to get it, but it's good i promise!)
and for anyone who's ever studied vectors or maths physics, here's my favourite nerd joke:
"What do you get when you cross an elephant with a mountain climber?
Nothing, you can't cross a scalar!" (if anyone actually wants me to explain this i will!)
okay i'm going to stop with the terrible jokes now!!
so i'm FINALLY back training and teaching at the karate club, after the awful weather last week! it was really good to be back and see all the kids and get some proper exercise done, it's crazy just how cranky i get without my regular boost of adrenaline and endorphins! and i've decided that i'm going to start properly training for my 3rd degree black belt, i'd like to get it in either march or april, so it gives me plenty of time to get the rest of the extensions down and remember all my old techniques!
went out to dinner with a bunch of guys from college, it was really good to see them again, the last time i did was the pub crawl before christmas when we all got smashed and i tried an irish carbomb for the first time (NICEST THING EVER! you get a pint glass, half fill with guiness, then get a shot glass and put half baileys, half whiskey into the it. Then you drop the shotglass into the pint and drink down as fast as you can. it sounds disgusting, but it smells and tastes like chocolate milk, amazing!!) and explained the pinapple thing to a guy (apparantly if a guy eats a lot of pinapples and other such fruits his spunk tastes better.) i know this because i read it in a magazine, and one of the girls backed me up from her own experience. I think we traumatised him though, he was only a wee gosin from cork, cutest little babyface and cork accent on him!
So we had dinner there the other night, to say goodbye to one of the girls who's gone back to paris for the next god knows how many months, and as a belated happy birthday to one of the guys, who's birthday outting was cancelled due to the weather. BUT IT'S OKAY BECAUSE I PROMISED HIM WE WOULD GO OUT AND I'D BE HIS WINGMAN AND GET HIM BOYS TO KISS!! (he only came out to me less than a year ago, so i'm still giddy whenever we talk about men, it's a good thing he gets giddy too or it'd be right scarlet for me!)
During this dinner, we were all talking about school and groups and whatnot, and it came out that pretty much everyone at the dinner was a big nerd in school and didn't like sports or anything like that at all...except for me! yes, it turns out that i am a JOCK NERD, and not even at the same time! when i'm a jock, I'M A JOCK - i hang around with mostly guys in karate, love talking crude shit with them and generally when someone asks me about stuff i'm like "eh, just hit him!" and then when i'm a nerd, I'M A NERD - nothing gets me more riled up than incorrect maths/physics on tv, especially when it's to do with supernovas or stars or the sun or our magnetic pole or the core of the earth because i have a degree in astrophysics, and will go on a giant rant about how and why it's wrong... so it turns out i'm a freak. but that's okay because i like being special :D
Still trying to find a full-time job, to no avail, while working two part-time jobs to keep me going, and still filling out graduate/HDip application after application...though i managed to get my deposit for Camp USA paid and found three people to supply character references for me, so WOO!!
Life ain't so bad for me, and according to my horoscope for the year, i'd going to be freed from old restrictions and will (hopefully) flourish with my new freedom. sounds perfect to me :D
Also i REALLY want to make a pop-up book!
how's tricks with everyone else? What's the craic??
