iPod Wackiness + Meme
Funny video iPod story (though not the real reason for this post):
I have the worst doctor anxiety. I honestly have no idea why. I like all my doctors, I've never had a bad experience, I'm generally in good health... but leave me in an exam room all by myself and I start to feel like the walls are closing in. So I've started bringing my iPod with me when I go in for check-ups, like I did this morning. I've also discovered how to convert Tivo files over to mp4, which means that I have a decent library of t.v. shows in handy portable format. So rather than read a Portland Monthly from May 2005, I watched t.v.
My (very cute and possibly slightly gay or just very metro) doctor comes in and says, "Oh, what are you watching? Desperate Housewives?" And I, sheepishly because he is cute, say, "Uh, no. It's Dr. Who." At which point he geeks out and starts asking me all about the new series. Even the nurse geeks out. And I'm like, "I'm a total neophyte. You two probably know more about it than I do." They dorked happily for, like, twenty minutes about how awesome the show was when they were kids and do you suppose the new one has that same cheesy music?
It was so cute, I almost forgave them for eventually sticking a giant needle in my face. Almost.
Anyway, the real reason for this post is... Meme:

I'm pretty multi-fannish, but if there's one that I don't recognize enough to do it justice, I'll let you know. :)
