Awh, Burnie liked my art. I feel all happy now.

In other news, yes, everyone by now has heard about our latest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. I, like many others, was quite confused by this initially, until I read more into what the prize is about and why the committee believed Obama deserved it. For those who are still unsure, go here and here.

Well, for the low. The high will still be 50-60ish. And then by Monday the overnight temps will go back to around 40, I presume, though they're saying a big storm front will come in at the same time and dump rain on us and be very windy. Oh well.

[drownedcities]

I think we should do both mazes. :D

[drownedcities]

AND DAR SAYS BOTH TOO.

[shichahn]

OKAY! Are you home for the rest of the evening now?

[totwistandturn]

Yeah, but I'm probably going to be sleeping for most of it. Work tomorrow for a bit.

[shinyget]

You're going to be popular among the RT staff for your art. |D

[shichahn]

Haha, well, it helps that I spam it at them. But Church there got me awards from Burnie, Matt, and Geoff. So that was awesome.

[shinyget]

...Damn. Maybe if you keep this up, you'll just get all the staff awards.

[shichahn]

Haha, well, some of them give awards for specific things. Kathleen didn't give me her award because she only gives out hers for doing random acts of kindness in real life. So even though she gave me a good deed mention, she didn't give me her award. But I think most of the staff just give them out when they feel like it, so, yeah. Who knows. Anyway, awards aren't the point. I just like showing off my art to people who actually care. XD

Re: Obama, first I've heard of it.

Re: Ramadan open-house, that I totally knew about. It would be hard to miss the sign when I walked past it every day going to the bus stop, and drove past it whenever we left the complex in Jarvis. And we could smell the food. ...I dunno, I guess we felt shy and not quite willing to believe it was open open? Obviously we needed you to drag us in there, but of course none of us ever said, "Hey Lauren, the mosque's doing Ramadan, which we're thinking of not going to." Oh well.

And holy crap wow, that has got to be the oldest quiz meme I've ever seen, I've seen that one so many times. I know I've done it at least once within the past year, I'm sure it's in my LJ somewhere....

[shichahn]

Really? Huh. I heard about it here on my flist when I got up this morning, then on the radio while driving to work, and then everyone at work was talking about it, and then I got back and it was even more all over my flist. Anyway. Yes. Obama wins peace prize 2009, woo! A little bit wtf but mostly just cool.

And yes, the meme is ancient, but somehow I escaped ever doing it until Clandon went along and posted it today. I know I've seen it crop up before though.

[zolac_no_miko]

You're the only person on my flist to mention it, and I guess I wake up earlier than you. I don't listen to the radio. Um. I guess everyone I work with is as much a bubbleite as me?

[shichahn]

Well now I have to know when you wake up. :p Just as a matter of... curiosity? I don't even know. XD

You should read/watch his acceptance speech, it is kind of awesome.
