My wife had a baby shower yesterday, and had a great time. She seemed to enjoy herself, and we got a lot of helpful stuff for the baby. I got to go play some games at CyberJocks all night, and for once I didn't get the tar kicked out of me in Counterstrike (now ranked 29 out of 155 players on their server, woohoo!).

I was going to go see They Might Be Giants in concert, but I couldn't because I am in a pit orchestra for the musical Damn Yankees through the local community theatre..
One of my friends went and he had such a "Kickin' Rad" time that it's making me quite envious.

We got the nursery pretty much done yesterday, carpet in, curtains up, pictures, crib, etc. I'll post pictures (or send them) if anyone is interested. My wife still doesn't wan to know what we're having, so the nursery is now off limits. Posts: 5422 | Registered: Dec 2001

Hello! I'm sort of a newbie here. I've been posting over on the battle school (as Mereo for any other cross forum people) for a few weeks and I've been reading over this forum looking for a good thread to introduce myself here, then I noticed this one and decided to take advantage of it. By the way very cool about Lichtenstien. Posts: 349 | Registered: May 2003

Hello!! I'm also somewhat of a newbie, and I don't think I ever introduced myself, so I will now... hello everyone! I've only been doing this for a few weeks...

Woooooooooo!! I was just told yesterday that the huge horrible paper that was punishment for not doing well in a core class was ACCEPTED!! I can graduate!! And I won't have to stay here until fall 2004 to retake the class!!!
It's very exciting. I don't know what my chances were, but I'm pretty sure they weren't good. We're talking huge personality conflict here. Thank god there are other professors in the department.
So now I'm officially in the clear! Woo!!!

I just found a hair (attached, but sticking out from the others...oh, who are we kidding, they all stick out from each other, this is curly hair...) with ELEVEN splits. I've seen bizarro 3- or 4-split hairs before, but ELEVEN. In the last inch! I felt the frightening experience should be shared.
(ok. ok. it's time to cut my hair. but you know, i'm scared - i don't know how to say 'just a trim' in czech, and i have this nightmarish certainty that asking for x centimeters off would result in all my hair cut to be x centimeters long, and besides do i REALLY know how long a centimeter is, or what the right 'cut' verb is for hair, or how to make an appointment, or whether an appointment is necessary, or...right. i wonder if i could do it myself...)

I love boys, but they're really, really stupid sometimes.
yesterday, via e-mail boy: I'm going to call you tonight. Is ********** your phone number? me: No, that's an old number. It's ##########. And I won't be home until midnight, so maybe you should call tomorrow.
later that night . . . boy: *calls* my roommate: She won't be home for a long time; you should call her tomorrow. boy: I just wanted to make sure this is the right number.
(I don't know what he would have done if it hadn't been the right number. Maybe called the one I told him was wrong? )
today my other roommate: *hands me the phone* me: Hey. boy: How did you know it was me? (um . . . 1) I never said your name. I could just say "Hey!" every time I answer the phone. 2) I have caller ID, and I know your phone number. 3) Um, you said you'd call, and I wasn't expecting any other calls.) me: Magic. I knew it through magic.
*sigh* Boys are extremely strange creatures. Posts: 3801 | Registered: Jan 2000
