Worked out, was going to take my car to Peter’s to have him look at repainting the door, but had some unexpected problems come up with CU (what a surprise!) and ended up talking in circles with them for a few hours. More packing.
picked up bookstore order, watched ‘star trek’ on terry’s new blu-ray player.

Class, did last week’s lab, prelab, printer ran out of ink so had to go to Target. Lab check-out, ‘Game of Thrones’ which was AMAZING. Crown of gold, indeed!
worked out, went to the bank, spent an annoying amount of time on the phone trying to get this insurance thing figured out (looks to be my former employer’s fault; big surprise). played video games. made a superb dinner. sadly, broke my ‘tea, earl grey, hot‘ mug. watched the latest ‘united states of tara’ and wished (for the umpteenth time) that show was on every day of the week. am now trying to decide whether i should watch ‘ghostbusters’ or ‘first contact’. am torn.
Behold! Snailboy posted up some Star Trek rage faces and HOLY CRAP AMAZING. The Romulan at the bottom is from my all-time favorite episode of ‘Deep Space Nine’, ‘In the Pale Moonlight’. I almost did a spit-take when I saw it. It is such a glorious episode that I might have to bust out the DVDs and watch it again tonight. (Did I mention that I have all of DS9 on DVD? Probably. Well, now you know. How much of a nerd I am. …If you hadn’t already figured it out. …….Whichhhh I’m sure you did.)
ANYWAY! Star Trek rage faces! Brilliant :)
And a Dukat, which one Redditor suggested because his entire character arc could be summarized as, “People who I’ve screwed over – Y U NO LOVE ME?“

Alex sent me this on Facebook and I loooove it! By John Martz, it is a poster of almost every Star Trek character in pixel form. Little Locutus! Little Morn! Even little Spot!
