Since my wife is friends with Dan Milano from all the way back to high school, I've got some candid on set photos of Robot Chicken, and some stuff on the new Short Circuit remake/sequel the Robot Chicken crew is working on. Maybe not epic, but cool. Working on scoring some swag.

Today marks 5 years of wedded bliss for me and the Mr. I almost called off the wedding that afternoon because I was stressing out over ridiculous last minute things. I'm glad I came to my senses. I don't think I could have found a better man.
Whew, glad you came to your senses too.

Well, I graduated from high school today, had an excellent lunch in the form of a bison burger and just saw "The Hangover".
This day has been glorious.

My friend just won a Tony! :aaahhh: Best featured actor in a musical for Billy Elliot. I'm so thrilled for him! He so deserves it besides being the nicest, most down-to-earth guy (and this won't change him, either). I haven't seen it yet but apparently he brought his wife up on stage during his speech.

I close on my house tomorrow!! :aaahhh: also if that bison burger didn't have bacon you ruined the most perfect day ever.
It was a bison burger topped with bacon and monterey jack cheese, with a side of chili cheese fries and a vanilla coke to drink.Anubinomicon said:
Best. Meal. Ever.

In other news: I know it'll (probably) lead to nothing and all that, but I actually managed to succesfully flirt with a girl today (as in, she volunteered her phone number and she sent me a couple of messages saying "oh, my bed is so big and empty, if only..." and such
aranoid: . First time I've pretty much been able to strike up a conversation with a girl since my ex last year, so I definitely count it as a win

I take back the previous statement: she just sent a message saying she's had her eyes on me for a while now but didn't dare to approach me and that she wants more.
Umm, ttyl kthxbye :-P

Thanks! This is him, Greg Jbara.
And now I'm watching his speech and getting choked up. He did bring his wife on stage with him, and he also mentioned James Raitt, who lived in my building when I was in college and was a friend of my mom's as well, an incredible Broadway musical arranger, who died way too young. Wow. Major flashback time.

Most of the time it's not an "all at once" thing, and you've just been oblivious to itBubble181 said::aaahhh: :aaahhh: It's a good situation, but I have no idea what I'm doing or how to deal with this. How the * do you deal with this kind of [expletive not used] :aaahhh:
Since when have girls started to think I'm sexy?! What alternate dimension are we in?!:aaahhh:
I missed out on three or four girls that I know of through high school because a) I couldn't read their signals at the time, b) I was shy as hell, and c) I didn't really care about dating/getting laid.Congrats, though! Now calm down and remember that fear isn't sexy (unless she's into that kind of stuff :tongue: )!
It's not quite an epic win yet, but it's headed in the right direction. I finally decided last week that I needed to look for a new job that's closer to home (I commute about 80 miles a day, round trip, through sometimes exceptionally heavy traffic), because I'm spending about $240 a month on gas, have no benefits, can't take vacations, and am sorely, sorely in need of some dental work and medications for high blood pressure, anxiety, depression, and possible diabetes. I was expecting to have to take a pay cut, which I can't really afford, in order to do so. However, after looking around for administrative jobs (I want to get out of the call center scene, I've been in it long enough and am very quickly tiring of all the bullshit that comes with call center work), it looks like there are a lot of positions close to home that pay the same or higher and have good benefits. Now I just have to actually get one of those jobs.

Yeah. Happened to me on many occasions. I wasn't always the studly Fade you see before you. When I first went to college, I was still a nerd parody. I made friends with this smoking hot hippy chic girl. I mean absolutely gorgeous, and super intelligent. No lie--she was one of the top people in the college Honor's Program. A few years later, she told me she was engaged. I hadn't spoken to her in a while. But she looked kind of sad for a second and said something like "I wanted you to ask me out so badly back then."
