moment of nerd

Me: Doo be doo, have to go downstairs. Hm, I've never used the elevator before, let's see what it looks like.
Me: *pushes button*
Elevator: Ding! Here, allow me the pleasure of opening my doors for you, my most valued rider.
Me: Ooh, pretty dark wood paneling and mirrors on BOTH sides?!?!?!
Elevator: Huh?
Me: Never stand between two mirrors! Have you completely lost your mind?! Noooooo!!!!!
Elevator: Ding! We're at the bottom, please leave now.

prayers

If you have some time over the next 24 hours, I have three people I would like you to keep in your thoughts, prayers, etc. If you just so happen to wander by their LJ to offer your good wishes, I'd appreciate it.

In order of "happening soonest":
bexdragon kicked ass and took names during her oral qualifying exam. She rocked so soundly that they said, "Hey, you know what? How about we say that was your thesis proposal, too? I mean, you did SUCH AN AMAZING job that it hardly seems fair for us to have our socks rocked clean off our bodies again." She is awesome and deserves congratulations.

Tomorrow is the birthday of the love of my life, downwood. His job is trying to kick his ass, but he's a rock star and the higher-ups there know it. Yes, I'll probably be making my annual mushy-gooshy-saccharine post about him.

Tomorrow is also the day that wolf_in_exile heads to Seattle. Keep him in your prayers while he travels. I'm sure katie_preston will appreciate it even more than I will. I've got something bubbling in the back of my head, but I haven't been able to put it to words yet. I will, but until then, I'm going to be needing extra help on the asking-divine-favors front.
