1. All the pens in my desk have been uncapped, on purpose. I can't stand reaching for a pen and having to take the cap off! I don't know why, but it drives me nuts. And I tried just having one pen with the cap off, but every time I reached for the pen, I wound up grabbing a different pen, and that was just silly because then I either had to uncap that pen to use it, or put it back and grab the uncapped pen. So. I have three pens at the moment, and they're all uncapped. So I can grab *any* pen, and go immediately to writing.
2. I am a spoiled, spoiled person. I know this. That being said, my room has two walk-in closets. I use the smaller one for clothes. The second, larger closet houses my thousands of comics (also half my dvds - the other half is on the shelves in the clothing closet, my cds, and a small doujinshi collection). It is a beautiful thing. :) Feel my nerd.
3. Josh Gates is my secret
4. I rock out to really weird songs in my car. I mean, turn the volume up, windows shaking, rock out. And they're *weird* songs. For instance, if you see me jamming in the car, singing along, I may, in fact, be listening to Rock Me Amadeus by Falco. I'm not even kidding. I love that song.
5. Lady Gaga wins. She's a nut, and weird, but her music makes me bounce. It's awesome workout music.
6. I have dressed up for a fan convention. There will be no pictures, so don't bother asking. I'm not handing you people evidence. ;) But yes, I am that deep of a geek. And I am proud!
7. I will also play my music really loud, on occasion, and dance around my room. Whatever. Don't judge my immaturity. Sometimes you've just got to dance! (And, for the safety of those around me, I don't dance in public. Someone could lose an eye!)
8. I've named both the shredder and the cash register at work. The shredder is Rodney, and the cash register is Shepherd. These two names are related. Depending on your geek interests, you may or may not be able to figure it out. I'm certainly not explaining.
9. I will watch incredibly crappy/boring/stupid movies if there is an actor I love in them. I'm *that* dedicated a fan. (see: Shark Attack 3: Megalodon for John Barrowman and Stonehenge Apocalypse for Misha Collins)
10. My favorite Robin is Robin III (also Robin V and currently Red Robin, but I digress). Tim Drake, is, in fact, more Batman than Batman, and will eventually take over the world. For it's own good. Respect him writers, or else!
cosplayers unite!...and Tim Drake rules
ReplyDeleteStargate?
ReplyDeleteI think we are sister seperated at birth? one in America one in the UK. Isnt that a film with that ginger haired girl... whats her name. it is on the tip of my tongue...?
ReplyDeletewe only have free view here in the rental house as we are hopefully moving in to a long term home when the mortgage company finally sort it out. So I am mourning the sci fi channel. I acually keep trying to change the channel and then remember it isnt there *sob*
I cant wait till we move and I can show you all my books. We dont need insulation in the house. just bookcases... Just call my house the library
Ah, great list! It's so nice to know these quirky things about you! :) No capped pens, eh? And you are a dance machine. Nice to see your crush. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing this! I liked it!
LK,
ReplyDeleteCosplayers rule!
As does Tim Drake. He is the best.
Mamajuliana,
ReplyDeleteYes! Stargate Atlantis' Rodney McKay and John Shepherd. Hee.
Slice,
ReplyDeleteOoohhh...I know the one you're talking about but I can't think of it either. Drat.
Oh, I'd miss the scifi channel so much...it does have some really awful shows on it, but then they have some great stuff too! And sometimes, those cheesy monster movies are just what I need. :)
Hah. Unfortunately I have to share my house with people who don't appreciate books like I do, so I can't insulate with books (though I'd love to be able to say that too). My room, though, is wall to wall shelves.
Susanne,
ReplyDeleteIt's a definite quirk, and I don't know when I developed it.
Also, Josh Gates is awesome. If you get a chance, you should watch an episode of his show, Destination Truth. It's on the SyFy channel. They go hunt down legends of monsters and ghosts, trying to find either evidence of the creatures, or evidence as to what it really could be that people are mistaking for the monsters. It's interesting and funny.
