I doubt mine would either. Curse the general lack of properly geeky available women.

Some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which
Men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear
To witness any longer
Cannot the kingdom of salvation
Take me home

I hate to gloat but I am doing so right now.

She genuinely likes it as well.

You can't have everything. One of my exes was a huge Star Wars geek. Before we dated I actually went to see Attack of the Clones with her; she was more excited to see it than me. Shame she turned out to be an insanely jealous psycho though...

If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Most geek girls aren't at all stable, they're usually just like the alpha bitches from prep cliques, except they do Vampire the Masquerade LARPs instead of going out to the local dance club.

Even though l knew that where l am now was only temporary until l get a job, now l have to leave just after Xmas, and l still don't have a fucking job yet!!

Woo-Hoo l guess l'm just a lucky son of a bitch!!!

Crashed my car on Monday Nov 2nd. My fault - just a seconds' daydreaming and a surprise complete stop from the car in front of me. Sigh. Her car has a few scratches but mine ended up being written off as it's so old and would cost heaps to repair. So long old girl.

Funny thing is I'm sadder to lose the car than a lot of the women I've slept with. Weird huh?

So I'm renting a Toyota Corolla Ascent for about $550 per week (ouch!) and have had bugger all time to go car shopping as I've been doing massive overtime at work due to the horribly fucked up results of our unit stocktake. Years worth of terrible paperwork, procedures etc - leading to 2 weeks of tracking shit down.

So I probably have to keep renting for maybe another week or so. That will be 3 weeks ...

I am going to try and get a fair bit of time off this week as I have missed the last 2 weekends. Fingers crossed I can get a semi decent car. Thinking a late model Mitsubishi Lancer as Nissan don't make the Pulsar any more and the Tiida is ghey.

And last Friday I did a 15km pack march, carrying 30kg of kit plus rifle. OK, so the former grunts on here won't think that's much but may I remind you I'm a storeman? Who hasn't done PT for weeks because of this stupid stocktake. And I haven't pack marched since basic - which finished in Jan '08.

In sum, I was unfit, unconditioned (apparently you need 6 weeks buildup supervised by a Physical Training Instructor, including progressively longer prep marches with heavier kit), had to borrow a mates' (badly packed, ill-fitting) kit, not a grunt, tired, stressed, sleeping and eating badly from all the overtime ...

And I still passed. I fucking kicked arse. I was absolutely destroyed at the end of it, but I passed and guess what? Almost a dozen grunts from my company - who do this shit for a living - DIDN'T. And not because they were sick or broken, they were fine at the start, they just fell out along the way or fell behind and couldn't finish within the time limit.

In a side note, it turns out that my Corps only has to ATTEMPT these marches and we get a tick in the box. I could have fallen out after 2 steps and still passed. Nice to find that out after the fact. Oh well.

But I am still amazingly sore. Should see some of my blisters - they developed and popped during the march and when I took my socks off later I had to throw them out because of the blood. A somewhat Pyrrhic victory.
