So I was on Facebook (like I do) inviting a friend to come over some time this week to watch "Pangs" in observance of Thanksgiving, when a mutual friend chimed in with, "Buffy? Sue, you're still watching Buffy??" to which I replied, "So? I watch the Halloween episode on Halloween and I watch the Thanksgiving episode on Thanksgiving. If I were ever to resurrect some ancient evil, I'd probably watch "Inca Mummy Girl" in observance of that!"

My heckler replied in what he no doubt felt was a conciliatory fashion, "Well, you might be a geek, but at least you're not a nerd!" To which I answered, "Let's not be so hasty. I still know the date and time of the Battle of Hastings and I can name all 50 US States in alpha order in less than a minute and the chapters of the New Testament in chronological order in less than 30 seconds."

His rebuttal? "So you're less of a nerd, and more of an annoying 5th grader."

Touché. <~~ secret nerd code

1) Blood On the Highway starring [livejournal.com profile] stoney321 and Nick Brendon (my Stoney bias is obvious there as I put her -- this once -- before Nicky) is now available to purchase on DVD. Having slept with one (as well as [livejournal.com profile] yin_again and [livejournal.com profile] entrenous88 --- at the same time!) and stood in line at Starbucks next to the other, I am obligated to own this movie.

2) I really adore [livejournal.com profile] likeadeuce. Partially because I've been re-reading a lot of her Buffy fanfic today (Run, Juliet!) and partially because she deserves to be adored today.

3) I am making a HUGE Buffy recs list. Four days and Ye god html later, I'm not sure what the point of it was. Other than showing off the massive amount of time I've spent reading various and sundry fan fic.

4) Jonah got a haircut.

5) Broccoli is delicious, but smells farty while steaming.

6) [livejournal.com profile] mirasol and [livejournal.com profile] ladycat777 gave me balloons and are awesome.

7) [livejournal.com profile] dovil's birthday is coming up. New Zealand reports a shortage in grain alcohol and those tutus you can put on sheep (you know. Those tutus.)

  • I'm so sad about Andy Hallett, I can't even say. Jonah listens to Andy's cover of "It's Not Easy Being Green" almost every day, and [livejournal.com profile] adis723 and I can hardly get through a conversation without quoting "Who's a little curt? Who's a little Curt Jurgens in The Enemy Below?"
  • I'm super thirsty. So far I've had an extra-large Cherry Coke (light on the cherry) from Coit's Root Beer Stand (you WISH you lived in Oklahoma) and about 1/2 gallon of water.
  • Jonah and Braden are in the living room watching As the World Turns and sitting in bouncing, vibrating devices. Don't judge me.
  • I got my nails done yesterday and I was busy gossiping because I hadn't seen my nail tech since before Jonah was born and I didn't notice that she made them too long. I look like the Grandma on Sixteen Candles. It did remind me of one of my favorite moments with [livejournal.com profile] likeadeuce though, who found it so charming that I got manicures while gossiping and drinking blackberry wine with a "Nail Lady" named Twila. Personally, I don't want to live in a world without manicures, blackberry wine and being on a first name basis with your Nail Lady.
  • I took Jonah to get his Easter pictures taken this morning. Gale force winds + two babies + a stuffed duck = me cursing like a sailor. Happy Fucking Easter! The pictures were fantastic. I splurged -- I'll share when they're in.
  • I found out through Facebook that one of my former co-workers, an absolutely gorgeous 21 year-old girl, a former Miss Black Oklahoma (yeah, I know) and on her way to finishing her poly sci degree with a fabulous internship has discovered herself single and pregnant. I'm more upset by this than I should be. I'm sure she'll work things out, but I can't help but be a freaking liberal who wants birth control handed out like Starlight Mints.
  • The number one pleasure in my life right now is the thought of taking a nap. I fantasize about it.
  • SPN wank amuses the hell out of me. It's always over the top and sensational and seems manufactured in a Fandom Wank laboratory. Buffy wank always depressed me, because it was all wordy and sometimes thoughtful and sometimes heavy and sometimes, most times a non-win (Is Angel a big ole 240 year old perv? And rape is always bad, m'kay?) But Supernatural wank makes me mock. And point. And laugh.
  • The ice storm last weekend didn't destroy my jonquils. I love April, spring, Easter, chocolate and the fact that I have a birthday and an anniversary in the same month. Everything's gonna be bright lights and lollipops! Everything's coming up roses for me and for you!
