I feel like Jack Tripper sometimes.

One of the reoccuring gags on Three's Company was when Jack would end up with two (or more!) dates in a single evening. Rather than admit that he fucked up and cancel any of them, he would spend the night running between dates in a vain attempt to do everything at once. Invariably, the dates would figure out ( Read more... )

Yesterday was quite the day.

Cyberpilate and laevus came down to share in my double dose of geekiness yesterday.

First, we went to Star Wars Celebration IV, where we met up with rebellion_life. CIV was fun, but a bit underwhelming. Which is not to say that it wasn't big and grand and all, but once you've been to ComicCon, everything pales by comparison. We tooled around the ( Read more... )

This is what I imagine the Pirate Meetups are like.

I hate my cell phone.

I got out of class earlier than I expected, so I rushed home to take part in the TLAPD festivities at Whittier College. I called lqc on the way home to see if I should go home and change into pirate garb or just head straight to the school. I got his voicemail, so I just went home, changed, and left again. I got off the ( Read more... )

Everyone knows I love pirates. And today being Talk Like A Pirate Day, you would think that I would be a little more enthusiastic about it. But the sad truth is, I'm getting a little sick of pirates. The mass media has latched onto pirates and clubbed us over the head with them. Everywhere I turn there are pirates these days. Lego pirates. D& ( Read more... )

Head aches.

Neck aches.

Eyelid twitches.

It's been like this for the past couple of days, and it's starting to piss me off.

I don't have a 7:30am class anymore, though. That's good.

Three-day weekends are even better.

Also got to hang out a bit with rosaleendhu last night. Spent some money at Borders and then went to see POTC 2 again. I still think ( Read more... )

I went to a pirate party last night with Kurt and Myra. It was fun. I learned that Captain Morgan Tattoo tastes just as good when you're sober as it does when you're drunk (my first taste was at Potrero, after I'd gone 'round the bend). I also had my first cigar in a long time, that was good too. Fun people, cute girls, Pirate Jeopardy, and I ( Read more... )

Ok...so we all know that I'm a bit fond of the pirates. And rumor has it that a new pirate movie is coming out next month. So I'm thinking it would be fun to get a group of friends together and see it opening night in costume. Why should the fans of Star Wars, LOTR, Harry Potter, and those two guys in luchador masks I saw at Nacho Libre last ( Read more... )

Yesterday I went to the Renaissance Faire with rosaleendhu. My goal was to spend the entire day doing nothing but watch the various shows, since I've never seen most of them. I was shocked to see just how many different shows they have at the faire. There's no way anyone could see them all in a single day, even if they skipped the jousting and the kids' ( Read more... )
