Heh. I just realised that my baby cousin was born on the same day as Harley's nephew. (Boy Meets Boy) Heeee! Although in more worrying news, I was just told the kid was born a lot more too early than I though. Six weeks premature is a lot, so I'm worried now. My mum's his godmother, though, and I'm happy for her about that. ^_^

Conversation re: wristrests:

Melle: Those are so cool.
Co-worker 1: Aren't they, though?
Co-worker 2: Can I just say, those might be cool compared to the other ones, but they are not cool according to any objective standard.
Melle: I think they're cool.
Co-worker 2: Yes, bt you're a geek, you're allowed.

They are cool, dammit. All blue and gell-filled and ooooh! If I had any use for them, I'd get them. Unfrotunately, despite the fact that i've had RSI since fourteen (did I mention the geekdom?), wristwrests only seem to make it worse, not better. Sigh.

Conversation re: English tabloids:

Dad: There was one headline that read "Never Trust A Belgian!"
Melle: *snorts*
Dad: Now, much as that's a good piece of advice ...

Um, yes, I do get my sense of humour from my dad. We are, after all, the family that considered driving their cat schizofrenic. ("Twice the cat for half the mess!")

Dad: There was one headline that read "Never Trust A Belgian!"

A common misconception partially promoted by the Austin Powers movies. (Ex: If you're raised by a Belgian and his fifteen year old love slave, you'll turn out to be a bald evil genius. Also, they share a border with the Dutch.)

Eh, sorry. [/geekyness] (Oh, like it can ever really end?!)

Hey man, don't blame us for the Dutch!
