I find the term geek is overused. It has oversaturated the world at this point.

I've given up fighting the label geek. If being a geek means being into The Matrix and knowing how a computer works then I guess that's a cross I must bear.

Hey girlie! I love surveys.
1) I would be a professor of anthropology, Latin-American literature, or psychology at men's college, where I would have the opportunity on a daily basis to wear revealing but classy outfits. Oh the fun I would have.....
2) No ma'am.
3) Dido, Morgan Le Fay, and Marilyn Monroe
4) Fire.
5) I have not, but I would LOVE to.
6) No ma'am.
I hope you're having a super-fantastic weekend!

1/ the guy that opens the penalty box doors at Leafs games
2/ it's time to roll 1 20 sided die (I'm a geek just for knowing that.)
3/ Don Quiote, Smog the Dragon, Eeyore
4/ Big fat hairy spiders!!! *shiver*
5/ No... but sign me up!
6/ I feel for slugs... probably the most timmid and defenseless creature in the multi-celled animal world. No spine you say!!! With those little faces they're like a slow slow puppy. Nothing seems to phase the patient slug... and I always pull for the underdog.

3. I had a black baby doll when I was three that I adored! I don't know what happened to it.
Work always sucks for me.

2. Outdoor hot-tub in the middle of a blizzard. Overheating below, frostbite above.
3. A transformer named JetFire... damn I wish I still had him!

sometimes i cross without even looking and then realise when i get to the other side that i hadnt looked...oops! or the times when i get caught on the island in the middle and huge trucks are rushing by....and you think "shit,someone could just lose control here and i'm fucked" yikes!!
guess you could say its a bit like life itself,you gotta be careful but then some things are just out of your control.
take care

Geeking it up rocks! I love resting after shopping-it's so dull and tiresome. I hope you had a good rest and that you have a lovely day today
The Halcyon Days
alone, left here in dust
amidst my tears and doubts
life's shatter dreams i could have
done without
now chthonic life has set its sights on
making me a slave to its ways
i wait for return
until then my soul it burns
and it burns only for you...
i'll be with you soon...

my favorites are snickerdoodles, too. I'm a big fan of cinnamon. I want your cream cheese sugar cookie recipe! I've never heard of adding cream cheese, but I can imagine it helps make them yummier. my cookie repertoire is basically comprised of cinnamon chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, honey shortbread, and gingersnaps. I like baking cakes better-less work. my grandparents gave me loads of fresh South Georgia pecans yesterday, so I might make something with those. anyways, send me a recipe if you have one! have fun, woman!

"If men had wings and bore black feather, few of them would be clever enough to be crows" ~Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, Mid-1800s
Crows, ravens, and jays are a member of the crow family, Corvidae, or corvids. Not a particulary remarkable name, but a rather remarkable group of 103 species...
