The best things in life are free
But you can give them to the birds and bees
I want money

Him: I thought girls “just want to have fun?”

Her: No… money. Money is for doing fun things. Specifically shopping.

Oh, and what shopping I have done! I believe I was even called out on the podcast by Tom for “shopping or something” when he called me this week. Clearly! What good would a vacation be without shopping and eating copious amounts of delicious foods? No good at all. I can’t believe the week is almost up already! Vacations never seem long enough though, do they? I keep making promises of pictures, but that might have to wait until I get back.

I have been doing some reading on this trip, and if you have a taste for quasi-rediculous sci-fi and horror then you should probably go take a look at John Dies at the End. Probably one of the funniest and most inventive works I’ve read in a while. Also great reading is Pointless Waste of Time, which is probably my new favorite site on the Internerd. How can you go wrong mixing WoW humor, satire and sci-fi?? It gives me faith in humanity again. Ok, I have out-nerded myself once again, and I haven’t even had coffee yet today!

Ugh. I can’t get rid of these nightmares. Every night there’s a new one waiting for me. I should probably stop reading sci-fi before bed. But I always read sci-fi before bed! Why would that make a difference now?!

Obviously, it’s because I’m so worried about not securing my invite to the Apple special event next week. I’m working on it. What could the “fun” new products be?! I love speculation… and things that are fun.

UPDATE: Got the invite. Yay!

In light of recent comments to my post on the possible upcoming Star Trek movie, I feel the need to make a few more observations. Why the hell are they including that weirdo from “Enterprise” (I don’t CARE if he was on “Quantum Leap”) and not Captain Janeway and Commander Sisco?! I’m sorry. “Enterprise” was weak. Weeeeak.

Let me make a personal reference. “Enterprise” was to the Star Trek franchise as “Machina: The Machines of God” was to the Smashing Pumpkins. Catch my drift? Go listen to the album and you’ll understand. Oh, you didn’t buy it? Exactly.

Star Trek captains William Shatner, Patrick Stewart and Scott Bakula are set to join forces in a new movie.
The trio will reportedly star in the unnamed film that will be set in the ‘mirror universe,’ which was featured in both the Next Generation and Enterprise TV series.

OMFG. I’m assuming that when they say “mirror universe,” they’re referring the the alternate universe caused when someone goes through the Nexus. If you recall, in “Star Trek: Generations” Picard actually meets Kirk (and they kick ass TOGETHER). A Trekker’s wet dream. Anywho, I hope this is true. I’ll be first in line, biatch!
