Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...

Outcast Genius

52 % Nerd, 65% Geek, 57% Dork

For The Record:



A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.



You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.



Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).



Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.



Congratulations!

New Puter and I can put up pictures now!!!

I got an HP Mini last friday :D YAY!!!! My first "real" computer that I own. Its such a cute tiny thing!! Here's a picture for ya'll (thanks for the pose Jessie)

The pictures on this blog never go to where I want them so if a pictuer seems to be at the top and not make sense I'm sorry :P
Knitting pictures~! Here are the winter mittens I made out of Noro sock yarn. It has been really really cold as most of you know, and these are great for under other mittens.
Anywoo, what am I working on now? Oh God. . . 3 sets of mittens two shawls I have to start a baby sweater for a new neice coming in July, two pairs of socks in the works for me, one for my mom, one for Jessie, Oh lordy the list goes on. Here is a picture of one of the sets for me. They are Koigu socks I got at the dog, and I'm going to put claudia handpaints (grape jelly color) as the heals and toes. I have big feet (size 11 to 12 womens) so I need three balls of koigu to make a decent pair. Gets expesive.

Well, I'm starving. I'm going to go dig for food in the kitchen. OH!!! And my friend Gracii is coming up tomorrow :D I can't wait!

First Business Trip Ever!!!

Yes, that's right! I'm flying out to Ft. Washington PA next Tuesday for my first ever business trip! I have to say my co-workers over there are wonderful, and I can't wait to meet them! We talk every single day over the phone and usually IM as well.
Then on Friday night Stacey is coming down from New Haven to spend Friday night and Saturday with me! YAY! *does happy dance*

I'm also getting my new work computer while I'm in PA, and my new work phone. When I come back I will start the set up to work from home. Anywhoo, back to work. Hopefully I can get some pictures up after next week of my trip!

Hi! I got a job!

So. . . . after a very very very veeeeerry vvverreeererery long struggle with permanent employment. I. Have. A. Job.

Job people!!!! We're talking 401k. We're talking health insurance!! We're talking vacation time. PAID vacation time. We're talking I'm still hourly and going to be making oodles of OT (for now). We're talking that I CAN SUPPORT MY FIBER HABIT!!!!

I've also moved. From big to small and I can't be more happy! Only bummer thing is that the downstairs guy smokes and it comes up the vent. (He's not suppose to smoke. I don't understand why he thinks I will not notice!) So most of the yarn is staying in the Rubbermaid bins until I get a good air purifier.

I will have pictures up soon when I can. I have several things on the needles, but it might take a while. I'm really busy with work. This is the "crazy" time of the year for what I do (I've been doing it since last Dec).

In fact I have to get back to work :( But there you are! Positive news. Been a long time comin' people!

Still not a knitting post, but very cool

Who wants to see Stephen Hawkings sing?!?!?!!?!?!?! ME! I know this is a commercial, but I LOVE it!

YES!! We have a camera!!

I love my friend A. A rules. A gave me a camera, just because. I'm not sure that A realizes I will be using said camera to post knitting as much as I can. . . when I'm around someone else's computer. Unfortunatly, I have not had a chance to take many pictures. I also have to get a memory card for the camera, but I did take some pictures. . .

BEHOLD!!! The Hanzo Hat



A little history about the Hanzo hat. This weekend is No Brand Con in Eau Claire Wisconsin. No Brand Con is a Japanese Anime convention. At this con they play a horridly horrible movie from Japan called "Hanzo the Razor". It's a movie that was made in the 70's about a Samuri cop during the Edo period (mid 1800's). Its horrid. Its a classic. Every time I go I take some pretty clashly Noro yarn (its japanese. . . get it?!?!) and make a awful hat to go with an awful movie.
I will have more pictures later. . .because it's also my Mom's 60th birthday tomorrow and we are having a big party on Saturday. Fam pics coming up!

One last shot I have for you today is my kitty cat Fraggle.

Videos I love

I love this video. Just thought I would share!


Who can forget the Llama song? sigh



Another classic I absolutely love!



I promise I will actually write something soon!
