I could talk about my students but that is the path to madness. So let me babble about tv, books and memes

I bought one of the TV Guide's fall previews. Yay to seeing Nichelle Nichols on Heroes and booooo to the plans for House i don't think I'll even bother.

Books, find them right here manga manga, the reading list for the weekend. I'm laughing. The library called me to let me know more manga has come in but they can't say it right and you can just hear 'damn these Japanese books' in the librarian's tone.

got this meme from

midnightsjane but it wasn't as funny as hers.

Your Score: 50/50 - Who knows?

Chances of becoming someone's kittylitter: 55%

You scored kinda in the middle, and I have no idea what the cats plan to do with you. Sorry, but my cat/adviser fell asleep back on question four and I've been winging it ever since. You might become kitty litter, then again, you may be left to roam the back alleys, looking for small rodents to eat behind the trash cans. At least you'll be surprised, whatever happens.

mjules would get a kick out of it (and explain it to me since i don't read this fantasy series)

Your Score: House Greyjoy

63% Dominant, 45% Extroverted, 18% Trustworthy

Brutal. Opportunistic. Unforgiving. Rising again, harder and stronger, you are of House Greyjoy.

You are a dominant personality. Although you are neither the strongest nor the most cunning, you bend the weaknesses of others to your own advantage. Extremely opportunistic, you are the Wendy Pepper of Westeros, letting everyone fall over themselves and get tangled up before springing lightly over the pile of bodies. When others criticize you, you’re more likely to cut out their tongue than lend an ear. Your arrogance is hard-wired into you to such a degree that you barely recognize other human beings to be of your same species, let alone your equals.

You are also introverted, which means that nobody knows what the hell is going on inside your head. Spontaneous and extremely impulsive, your actions will always take people by surprise. As such, it’s unlikely that you have many friends or allies in the wide world; people just don’t find you trustworthy. And there’s a reason for that, too, which is...

You’re untrustworthy! You are opportunistic, greedy, stubborn, and more-than-willing to climb over anyone you must to get to the top. You are unwilling to compromise on anything, and instead of using strategy, you try to eliminate as many of the other players as possible. Let’s face it—by conventional moral standards, you’re just not a very admirable person. Perhaps if you stopped laughing when people cut their fingers off at your dinner parties...?

Representative characters include: Aeron Greyjoy, Asha Greyjoy, and Victarion Greyjoy

Similar Houses: Baratheon, Frey, and Lannister

Opposite House: Tully

When playing the game of thrones, you play it buck naked, flappin’ in the breeze.

Seriously WHY is my heraldic symbol a freakin' squid?? (and just how awful am i?)

oh and another day in COM's life. I was putting away the dishes and manage to slam my left elbow into the gallon tin of olive oil. WHile I'm jumping around screaming since it hit the funny bone, I back into the dish rack where my super sharp santuko knife is nicely washed and dried. It slices open my arm from elbow half way down. Now I'm bleeding and bruised and my left arm wants to run away.
