1) I'm starting to believe my logitech wireless keyboard for my ipad operates off a ZPM. I swear I have charged it only twice since I purchased it >6 mos ago. It's kinda weirding me out.
2) My brain has been pwned by the "craves the mineral" meme.
3) I had theunfortunate luck misery night of restraining myself from saying inappropriate things while buzzed last night. See, at my training session, while making sure to destroy my leg muscles, my trainer invited me to go to NYE dinner with her, her boyfriend, and a couple her boyfriend had invited that she didn't know. I figured, what the hell, otherwise I'll just be playing DA:I while drinking sapporo. so I went. And god, the stereotypes. There's a reason they exist y'all.
Her bf is also a trainer. And a NJ native. And the epitome of every stereotype about NJ guys ever with the added bonus of "trainer who says they are a body builder" stereotypes. From the greased back short hair cut, to the slightly too small polo dress shirt that was only buttoned to the button one up from the belly button, to the "if you are a body builder, you are an example of an anorexic one that doesn't juice" skinny build. With the addition of "must dominate the conversation at every juncture". It was like being trapped in a Saturday Night Live skit at times.
And now, when my trainer makes dismissive or critical of her bf statements during our sessions, I'm going to have to be subtle in my agreement because OMG, she can do so much better than this douchecanoe. I swear.
4) You know how things sound when a record (a real one) skips and kinda keeps doing that? My brain did that last night when the Jersey Shore reject asked us all "so what are your New Year's resolutions" and kept on in a pretty aggressive manner until I finally said in a very fuck off tone "the end of 2014 has been a bit too busy and whiplashy to even think about that". And I'm pretty sure my trainer kicked him under the table since he didn't speak directly to me for a few minutes after that.
5) And in the "witness to bad ideas" venue, picture this: flight from Washington Dulles to Newark airport in a small (seriously, it was the 1 aisle of 1 seats with another aisle of 2 seats design) plane. After pulling back from gate we are informed there is a delay of sometime and that we are allowed to get up if need be. Very talkative Indian woman asked if she could switch seats with me so that she can talk to her sister/cousin/whatever. I'm just thinking "really? have you not seen/read the number of reports of airlines shutting down flights for people switching seats before take off in recent years? It's going to be 2 hours max". I stayed put.
Happy new year everyone
