Patient Zero

It is now official, I have become Patient Zero for my friends and LiveJournal.

Muahahahahahahahahahah.

Ow

I have discovered a sure-fire way to find anything that is lost.

Walk around in the room you lost the item barefoot. You will eventually step on the item you are looking for, especially if it is pointy.

Ow.

A Winner Is Me!

Happiness is…

Shaking a salad inside its plastic container so that the dressing and non-lettuce toppings get evenly spread out.

Conspiracy!

Okay, I’m convinced. It seems that all of the cute Asian girls here at work all seem to know each other.

There has got to be some sort of conspiracy going on.

This requires more research. I may need binoculars…

EFNet

EFNet is totally hosed, due to excessive DoS attacks. It’s very frustrating to think that some 15-year old in his parent’s basement who thinks it’s c00l to take down servers is inconveniencing thousands of people. But one person inconveniencing lots seems to be a theme in my life recently.

And yes, I checked. My machine hasn’t been hacked again and doing the DoS’ing.

Bleh

Someone call the Internet repairman, it’s broken…

I wonder if it’s still under warranty…

AX Wrapup

So Sunday was the last day of AX, and once again I had to wake up for the morning shift. It was quite uneventful, in fact the day was mostly uneventful until the con was almost over.

Once again, our friend the bulleted list:

  • I had a dream Saturday night. I dreamt that I was in a McDonalds, but for some reason the person taking my order was psychic and handed me my order before I even said out loud what it was. I freaked out and ran, and as I got further away from her, I thought to myself “I wonder how far she can reach” and I hear her say “November 23rd!”
  • I must have been fixating on the smells of the soap, but I noticed that the hand soap in the Hyatt’s bathrooms was banana-scented, and the hand soap in the Renessaince’s smelled sweet, and reminded me of a certain weird cookie that i used to eat at Hebrew School. Must be a cross-wired olfactory memory.
  • For some weird reason, when I’m in Southern California, my phone switches from “AT&T” to “ROAM” and back again repeatedly. I have no idea if that means I’m actually not roaming or not…
  • I was introduced to a new concept yesterday: Wine flavored Pocky. I was so surprised that I was running all over the room shoving the Pocky under people’s noses, saying “smell this!”
  • At the very last minute, I was quite surprised when I ran into ElfEater, who said she’d been at the con the whole time. Of course, I hadn’t been hanging out by the DDR machines, which is probably where she was most of the time. 😛

So I think the themes that we take away from this Anime Expo are weird smells, audio clips, lines, walking and rain.

I’ve gotta go to work tomorrow. I don’t wanna go to work tomorrow. I’ve got a week’s worth of email and work awaiting me tomorrow.

And I still have to unpack…
