I think that the Meredith Brooks' song, "Bitch," summarizes me rather nicely. Or, if you prefer, X. dell says I'm a life-smart literary scholar with a low BS tolerance...that also works!

Star Wars for Valentine's Day




There's apparently a site that has these Valentine's day ecards with a Star Wars theme on them. Most of the cards are the sort that only a true geek can laugh at, really...like this one.

So, Alex sent the best ones to me via email because he knows I'm a total geek who would appreciate it. However, this one made me pause. I know I have a vulgar mind and all, but hey, does anybody ELSE see the innuendo here?

Ok, so I can't count. English professors can't do math. I confess.

My daughter, now, SHE actually gets A+'s in math. So, it was my daughter who pointed out to me today while staring at the roses Alex had delivered to the house, "Hey mommy! That's EIGHTEEN roses, not TWELVE!" Yeah. Woops. So, um, cough cough. That's 30 roses on my table, plus her carnations from Valentine's day. We eat in a florist's shop.

Good thing she's around. I'm going to train her to balance my checkbook by the time she's ten. It'll be more accurately done that way.

Yeah I caught the joke about the shoot. Did you catch the double entendre that you put up to go along with it?: "in u endo"

I would've thought the second card was from Indiana Jones not Star Wars...KIDDING!! But yeah, I got it. Men should learn NEVER to shoot first though, not just on Valentine's Day.

Would Ari be available for stats tutoring tonight? My brain is slowly turning to sludge...

I agree with April. Not shooting first should be a requirement for every day, not just valentine's day.
