Christ, I am a nerd.

It's basically graphs as art. Like this:

Or that big one of Napolean's conquest. Their graphs, but their beautiful and have some kind of meaning and even emotional weight.

You know, this thing:

Apparently, NASA is looking for people to send to Mars on a one-way mission. It has lots of perks I'm told, mostly it requires only half the infastructure of a normal NASA mission.

Obviously, we must send Bootsy Collins. The original Star Child, direct from the Mothership. If we're sending people to the red planet, I want it to be Bootsy.

Looking back at the last post, I realized that I came off sounding much more dismissive and ambivalent than I actually am about moving.
While I am, of course, nervous about moving, I'm very excited to move on to something new and different.

And I did have lots of fun in D.C. It was, in a word, a hoot.

I just realized what made D.C. so weird -- there wasn't anything fun!

Nothing but offices, starbucks, and overpriced restaurants. No diners, no real coffee shops, and no comic book stores!

No wonder the place was so weird!

MarsEdit supports titles for LiveJournal!?

MADNESS!!

(Hot, sexy, awesome madness!)

Now, if it only supported tags for LJ as well...

There's a bunch of film students in my house.
They're scurrying about, trying to get the sound to work, trying to figure out how the steady cam turns on.
I feel young again.
