School is going well. I had a little angst about feeling out of place around all these 18 year olds last week but it seems to have subsided, mainly 'cos I'm all nerdily excited about what I'm learning. I think I broke the boy this afternoon by coming home and excitedly telling him about what I'd been doing in patternmaking class. Poor boy.
Tomorrow (Friday for you people on the other side of the world who are a day behind me) I will be 30. I'm actually pretty happy about the whole thing, not least because I actually plucked up the courage to invite some folks for drinks for my birthday. Yes! That's right! It's all about me. Me me me. Some of them might even turn up. Also I'm happy 'cos I'm so much cooler than I used to be. If I keep going this way I am going to be so awesome at 90 that nobody will be able to look directly at me, like the sun.
Whenever I use the main appley menu thing on this computer it amuses me to see "force quit" as an option there. I mean, seriously, if I was going to shut down the computer with a meaningful look and surreptitious hand wave a la Obi Wan why would I need a menu option?
Also Firefly Firefly Firefly Firefly Firefly Firefly Firefly etc. Yeah, I know I'm a johnny come lately to the whole thing and all the cool kids watched it ages ago and it's totally mainstream and I am a loser but fuck it. I've watched the whole lot about 5 times in these last three weeks (Objects in Space like 10 times). Needs more commentary though. I wanted commentary for Jaynestown.
