it's kind of like fangirls writing a book

[crankyoldman]

Homelessness at work has reached an all time high. Now we have Graphics Intern (who I wish I could steal, this kid is SO ADORABLY ENTHUSIASTIC) at The Table, the minions and I graduated to having our own desks, and Graphics Master is stuck in the corner. But my Intern and the New Finance Assistant have the floor and the couch respectively.

We get anymore and it'll be MAX DENSITY. There's already been talk like this is Geekstock. I've warned them not to burn the couch, it might esplode. And I thought getting my chair stolen was annoying. The look on Annoying Intern's face when he saw Graphics Intern and realized that Graphics Intern could take him was PRICELESS. Is it bad I want to see them duke it out gladiator style?

So today I've been working on a process document thing, and yes, it's as boring as it sounds. Luckily the minions made me go to lunch with them, or my brain might have fried. Though, the payback is if I write this up well and after some editing, this might end up being a publishable work (as apparently there's some kind of problem designing systems oriented educational stuff? I don't know, our curricular adviser made a huge deal over my stuff. XD Maybe I should be flattered?). I find it ironic that the only publishable things I've done have been pretty boring and instructionally based. XD If it's not a user manual or a training simulation... hey, at least I get paid. And really, I am a bit of a theorist type, as much as pure subjects annoy me. And I usually get to do fun things, it's just I have to make sure I have shit setup for when I go back to school, because this is approaching quickly!

Hey, anyone wanna do my last year of engineering for me? Kidding. Only not.

I'm prematurely missing work. XD Is that wrong? At work I feel, I dunno, like a useful contributor. School likes to do basically the opposite; it's not so much I'm not a "big fish" (I'm not even a big fish here, I'm part of a TEAM) but more that I hate being treated like an idiot? I'm not genius, but come on, just because I don't do differential equations in my sleep and have all sorts of plane models memorized doesn't make me completely useless.

Maybe when I'm older I'll go be a professor, and try to reverse that attitude. Ha, ambitious, I know.

P.S. Sev, this made me think of your plight. XD

P.P.S. EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS. The site may crash though, because everyone wants to see it, but it's WORTH IT.

I think Joss Whedon has a love affair for Nathan Fillion, as this is the third project he's been in.

Yes, but who can blame him?

I laughed so hardkore when he appeared. There's also a pretty awesome little comic (http://www.myspace.com/darkhorsepresents?issuenum=12&storynum=2) about Captain Hammer, who I kind of love for being such a jock stereotype. XD

Oh Joss Whedon, if only you had made this while I was in high school.

But ever since seeing him burst Xander's eyeball with his finger in Buffy, seeing him as anything not evil is a bit difficult!

That cracked me up. Although I agree with some of the commenters -- I'm wary about going around it that way because it's a much more deliberate, in your face, "You told me not to do this and I'm doing it anyway, nah-nah-nah."

Although Gmail makes it tempting. ;)

I know. But for the occasional stuff, I could see using it.

I forget how I got to that, because I have been pretty scatterbrained today. Fucking theory paper. Fragmented thought and strange websearches does help me write Edea, oddly. XD

Maybe I can get the next chapter of They Were Four done today. Considering that the first chapter was like RAMBLE OUT OF BRAIN THERE YOU GO.

That song reminds me of the evil genius love song or whatever it is called.

Your an engineer shouldn't your publish work be a bit boring. ^^

Jonathan Coulton - "Skullcrusher Mountain" the song I'm thinking of.

He he he, I love it when useless people realize they are, in fact, useless. :) I really am picturing you all warming yourself with a trashcan fire and parading about barefoot, like Iffy and Gast in college or something.

And I say this all the time, you'd make an amazing professor.

and a hot one
