Packet Luv
Brought to you by Brunching, suppliers of my Oral Sex Donation utility, and Sian, my oldest and bestest friend, it's the Geek Heirarchy!!! Right now, I fall somewhere just about "Ren Faire Folk." I MIGHT be "Pokemon Fans over the age of six," but hardly to the extent to which it is possible. I guess I got less geeky. I used to fall pretty damn close to... the bottom. *wince* .... Erhm, well, I'm actually rather proud of the bit of furr-ness in me, or at least being able to acknowledge it. I'm not ewasily embarrassed, you know. That and I have little shame and only a small amount of modesty. *smirk* However, I'm rather surprised that this heriarchy doesn't have a tech tree. I'd like to think that somewhere in there, I we geeks might be able to differentiate the degree of geekiness between someone who understands networking and someone who speaks l33t. Alas.

Also, huzzah! Rupert has been added to ProjectGato on blog Eh? Rupert is happy. In fact, he is excstatic. In fact, he's digging his claws into my... ow, OW! STOP THAT!! Little bastard... Eh? is the newest addition to blog links, a cute little number- comic and insightful. Please read the one about gay vampires. Ok, I must admit, what I really like about this blog is that it seems to be part of a blogging couple: Viv and Ted. I admire this. Web feedback and interaction! Instead of what I get from Justin "oh, yeah, ok, hon... read it... you gonna put that in your weblog? mumble mumble..." And he who updates his blog once every three months. Bah. Lucky girl, Viv.

I wore the kickass green leather bodice today. It is infinite in its kickassedness. I'm quite pleased with it and so many people were pleased with my boobies. I mean, my bodice. Ahrem. It's a great look with jeans an the swordsman shirt. Somewhere between pirate and leather fetishist. I don't know which one I'd enjoy being more! The Ren Faire life is slowly seeping into every day. God, what will my grandparents think? Soon I'll be a grubby peasant wearing only natural cotton and never washing my hair, playing all day in the fields a heathen like... OH MY GOD, I'll be a hippie just like the rest of Eugene! ACK!

I spent most of the day working on a letter to the Chase Village people to try and convince them to give Justin and I free money if we renew our lease. I tried to mix equal parts diplomacy and brown nosing, ample amounts of each. Tastes like brownies and highly effective for disarming college student stereotypes. Unfortunately, I made myself look like a complete blonde handing them the letter. I went into the leasing office and gave it to Margo who noticed that I misadressed the envelope. No big deal since I wasn't intending to MAIL it, but the way it was labled would have sent it TO me FROM them. Pay attention, Kat!! Oops, bummer.

I can't believe I'm going to Michigan so soon! I've been having all sorts of weird dreams about old friends, enemies, and people that I just saw in passing. The Knights are starting to appear in my dreams, too. Life is so full of dreams! And I sleep so much better now that it's a bit cooler at night. The temp is supposed to rocket back up by the end of the week, making for a scorching Gig Harbor trip if it's anything like here. I'll spend the night at my parents' on Sunday and fly out Monday morning. The 'rents are celebrating all three sisters being out of town by going Sea Kayaking in the San Juans, staying a night in Vancouver BC, and going on a mini-backpacking trip. I'm so glad for them! Mind you, I don't like to think about them "rekindling the fire," but they're doing so much better than they were a few years ago!

In any case, that's all for now. A chipper entry from a chipper girl. *summer sigh* This fall will be so busy what with classes (See posted schedule), work, publishing the OV, going to the gym, and mentoring a middle school girl. Busy but worth it! And I'm starting to look into internship/ study abroad programs for the spring. So much to do!

Ah but Kat, that's the way you like it. *grin*
