I died in my dreams/ what's that supposed to mean...

( Yet another dream from the Strange Vision Department. )

And you do know that you're really a geek when the first thoughts you have upon awakening are
a) Idiot! To try and pay with your credit card! Then they would have known that you'd been there! They could have traced you!
and
b) How can you go to Mt. Meneltarma on the day before the Downfall and NOT BRING YOUR CAMERA?!
Duh.

( Mal wieder ein Traum aus der Abteilung für Merkwürdige Ansichten. )

Und du weißt endgültig, dass du bekloppt bist, wenn deine ersten Gedanken nach diesem Aufwachen sind:
a) Idiotin! Mit der Kreditkarte zahlen wollen! Dann hätten sie doch nachvollziehen können, wann du wo gewesen bist!
b) Wie kannst du am Tag vor dem Untergang auf den Meneltarma reisen und KEINE KAMERA MITNEHMEN?!
Also echt.

A Midsummer Day's Post

We have occasional sunshine but more clouds and ~18°C, which doesn't make for a very impressive start into summer. Oh well. I s'pose there aren't any Midsummer fires around here anyway, and even if there are, I'll spend most of the night at Cinemaxx anyway to watch the Troy OV.
Still, happy Erulaitalë and a good summer, you all!

Things to make the little snobbish geek that I am very happy:

Tonight Channel One in New Zealand broadcast a televised IQ test, and the guest audience comprised seven groups: models, cricket supporters, people aged 60 and older, taxi drivers, real estate agents, celebrities, and Tolkien fans [...]

There were five sections that comprised the IQ test: vocabulary, reasoning, memory, numbers and spatial. And let me say right now that the Tolkien fans kicked some serious intellectual heinie. At the end of the night the final scores were:

Models - an average of 85 IQ points.
Real estate agents and taxi drivers - 93 points
60+ and cricket supporters - 98 points
Celebrities - 99 points
Tolkien fans - 107 points
