Korova Milk Bar

In a little over two weeks, this apartment will be gaining +1 to beautiful red-head content. I am really looking forward to that. I have really missed Jackie over the past year, and it has been pretty rough at times for both of us, but the long wait is finally (almost) over. It will be nice no longer having to fly across the country to see my fiancée.

I just saw a trailer for the new J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie for the first time last night. I really hope work does a screening of this movie, because there is no way I’m going to pay money to go see something that looks like it will suck as hard as this movie does. The trailer didn’t convey any sense of a plot from what I saw. I got the impression that the movie would be “How can we use X as an excuse to blow something up? Sweet! Let’s do that!”

On a somewhat related note: IMDB lists Simon Pegg, and John Cho as Scotty, and Sulu, which I just can’t picture. I just keep thinking of Shaun of the Dead, and Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, which is not what I really what I associate with Star Trek.

I’ve had an image in my wallpaper rotation for a while now that has a woman asleep on the floor, surrounded by a bunch of electronic gear. On the right side, made up of the electronics it said “Fast Asleep”, but I was never quite able to make out what it said on the left.

Apparently, it was the cover art of an album by Funki Porcini (which also happens to be the text on the left).

Well, I’m sitting at EWR (Newark Liberty Airport), waiting for my flight, which doesn’t start barding for another hour. I got here at about 4:00 PM, expecting a bit of a wait getting through check-in, and security, but I managed to breeze through and was at the gate by 4:15 PM.

Laurie’s wedding was fun. Quite a bit of dancing with Jackie. (Yay!) As always the weekend went much too quickly.

Now it’s just hanging out at the airport for another 45 mintues until it’s time to board. (Not yay.)

Back to the daily grind tomorrow.

Happy PI day folks. Almost forgot about it this year. Jackie would have never let me live that one down.

Jackie,

For anyone that hasn’t already found out, Jackie and I are now engaged. I proposed, and she said yes, the morning of Feb. 28th (also her birthday).

We haven’t set a date for the wedding yet, other than knowing it’ll be some time after Jackie finishes up her (approximately) last year to go at EMU.
