I haven't post in awhile. I've started a few posts, but never clicked the "Publish Post" button, it's actually become quite a scary little button. I have been thinking a lot harder about the things I post. I don't know who reads my blog. I don't know if anyone out there is collecting information about me off my blog. Yes, it seems I've become quite paranoid... I blame my counsellor. But long and sad/depressing story short... I was in the process of backing up my blog... and deleting it. I know, scary. But then... on the actual night I planned on going home after work and actually completing my dastardly plans... I had someone come up to me... a customer, and asked me if I wrote "The Princess & The Geek" OMFG! How awesome is that? (*waves* Hi! by the way). I thought the whole idea of someone from MY TOWN actually reading my blog, the worst thing ever... I know for a fact that I have 2 local readers (and one of them is my sister, and the other is a friend) so having a seemingly random person (I mean that in a nice way!) is reading my blog.... is freaking awesome... so awesome, it needs to be added to the next volume of "The Book Of Awesome" by Neil Pasricha (see fig. below)
So... I decided not to delete my blog. All 3 and a half years of it. All 1101 posts. When the lovely customer left (who actually works with my aforementioned friend) left, my supervisor came over (who had heard the whole, rather awkward conversion) and asked "What's a blog?" I told her, she wanted to read mine.... I changed the subject :)
The past couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. I got sick, just the flu, but had to fly to Perth... on my own, for work training. There I finally met with my internet/SMS friend Josh, but due to my illness, I was probably the biggest bitch in the whole world, so Josh if you're reading this, I'm sorry for being a vague, untalkative bitch, who spent an hour with you, and then left you to find your own way back to the train station. :(
In Perth, even though I was sick, I did what I do best... Spend MONEY!
Nintendo DS & iPod in top corner are MINE... well everything is mine, but I owned them before the spending spree. I'm actually glad I was sick, because if I was well, I would of actually been bothered to shop and would of spent a lot more money.
I also got "re-obsessed" with Criminal Minds. It was on TV while I was in Perth, even if it was one of the last episodes of series 6, and I haven't finished season 4 yet... who needs "storyline" and "plot" when you've got Dr Spencer Reid aka Matthew Gray Gubler??
I have more... I know you want more :)

*swoon* I got back from Perth and went straight into Target and purchased Criminal Minds Season 5. I told myself I was going to wait, because $77.00 is too much to spend on a tv series... but, NO, I couldn't do it. WOO! 5% Staff Discount.
In Entertainment news.
This man! Benedict Cumberbatch... The best ever Sherlock Holmes ever (even better than Robert Downey Jr) has finally been confirmed as cast in The Hobbit. He will be doing the voice and motion capture of Smaug the Dragon in part 2, as well as doing the voice of Necromancer in part one... Necromancer for all you non-LOTR fanboys & girls... if Sauron :) EXCITED!
Okay, so this post is pretty epic. I'm going to leave it there. Hopefully it's enough to cure certain peoples withdrawals :P

Loving the epicness of your post and loving that you are back blogging : ) because you are so right - there is a princess and a geek inside all of us. Dont delete your blog, you never know who it might be inspiring!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm Mattew Gray Gubler. I just stumbled upon your blog and at a glace I have to admit you are on the right path to truely iconic greatness. Anyone who can see the heroic geek-dom that is his personality is rightly dubbed the Princess. Keep doing what your doing.
