Journal Interrobang's Journal: Geek Prom! 2

I really want to go to this! Unfortunately, it's all way the hell and gone parsecs out in Minnesota, which is too damn far for me. Do visit the yearbook pages and check out the photos of the cute, sweet, geeky lesbians. :)

I thought I should try to put together a proposal to get the Ontario Science Centre to host one of these. That way, I could wear my new earrings (I bought 'em for Tomble!) with my outfit, since I remembered that I can paint the hooks with clear nail polish and they won't react with my ears that way... (Funny how, when you don't have any fingernails to speak of, nail polish kind of slips under your radar.)

It would also give me an excuse to wear my anime-chick outfit (leather pants and a cheongsam top in black and red), not to mention getting my date into a cool outfit of some sort. (I don't hold with the dressing like a nerd thing.)

In other news, I had a random recruiter contact me about a (short) contract job today, and an HR person from a publishing house contact me about an editorial job, and thanks to dave-tx for taking my resume off to parts southwest; someone from your neck of the woods has been on my site.

Things are looking up, and my recent bout of crushing depression has broken like a bad fever. That is to say, I'm not having suicidal ideation anymore, but I am still feeling a bit fragile. My body chemistry's a bit out of whack, too, but that'll fix itself soon, since I at least seem to have some appetite back...

  • do you bite your fingernails?
    • Yeah, I have since I was about three years old. I'm so good at it now, it basically looks like I just cut them brutally short. In any case, if I didn't bite them, I would keep them really short, because I type all day, and it's next to impossible to type accurately or quickly with long fingernails.

Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
