Million Billion Years

Jeezy Creezy! It's been a MILLION years since I posted...! How come the masses haven't arisen? I'm gonna pretend that it's because you have all just been tiding yourselves over by reading past posts, and not because you all no longer crave the intense, orgasmic excitement that comes from reading my sultry words.

Anyway, here's just a little update:

The Droid X is fantabulous, but it's external speakers suck monkeyballs [wait, so they are awesome?] so I never hear it. Hmm... that sucks. Oh well. I may have to yell at Verizon to see if there is anything I can do, but as much as I love yelling, it's getting real gd old driving over there every week to complain.

Nickypoopoobutt is visiting tomorrow! WE ARE GOING TO HAVE AN ACTION-PACKED FUN-FILLED ADVENTURE FILLED WITH WONDER AND EXCITEMENT AND YOU ARE NOT INVITED!!!! Unless you are Albert or Emily, who I invited.

It's been Phone Week (just as intense as Shark Week), and it has been great (despite the post I haven't written yet)! I've talked to many a friend on the phone this week for various lengths EXCEPT TAHLIA, THAT BITCH ["What? She's in the Netherlands? How long? ALL SUMMER? I don't believe you.]

At NASA, I have been doing some coolio things and mainly this is how it goes:
G: "Blah blah blah O2-singlet-delta blah blah abundance profile blah blah blah"
Me: "Totally. I dig it. Right on. For sure."
G: "Go and do."
Me: "Definitely. Easy. Get that right back to you."
Hours pass.... G comes downstairs to my desk.
G: "Did you do that thing?"
Me:

G: "Show me this [names something]."
I show him something.
G: "Why are you doing that? Do this."
G does PURE IDL MAGIC. In my head, I am thinking, "You never told me anything about that."
G: "Ok, now do this and send it to me when you are done."
Me: "Sure, it's easy now."
Hours pass... Eventually, I email something to G.
G responds to the email.
G: "Come to my office."
Me:


Also, he completely rewrote my entire presentation. Meh. Looks good. Today, we had our dry-runs with the director of the astrobiology department at Goddard (Dr. Mumma), and everyone and their mentors [and their mentor's moms, ZINGO! (Dr. Mumma totally said 'zingo' today and it was glorious)], and one of the mentors commented that I shouldn't put a talk outline in it because honestly, he thinks they are dumb. I wanted to do one of those "quick head tilts" at Geronimo because he is the one that put it in there and thought it was 'cool.' I didn't do that, but what I did do was this:


I stand up and look over at Geronimo.
Me: "Who's the genius now, G-string?! That's right, bitch!"
Dr. Mumma (the head of the astrobiology department) and I chestbump. I high-five and fistbump the rest of the members at the table. Boncho gets up to hug Geronimo but Geronimo shuns him.
G: "Not now, Bonch."
Boncho looks defeated and so Geronimo opens his arms and they hug. The rest of the room goes "Awww..." 

So that is what I have been up to. I have a severe backlog of post ideas, so YOU'LL HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO.

Kisses! <3
