apocalypsosSo today Lieutenant Asshat and Boy-on-Boy Action found out their illustrious LJ nicknames. Lieutenant Asshat was pissy about it for all of five minutes, to the point where I was tempted to offer to change it to Whine and Cheese.
Boy-on-Boy Action, meanwhile, would like everybody to know that this nickname does not make him a homosexual. (I don't know, I guess it's better if you know he's a terrified heterosexual.) What I thought was rather stupid was ... well, I didn't mention it when it happened, but a squirrel lives in our warehouse and yesterday he got into Boy-on-Boy Action's office. The poor, confused little bugger then proceeded to leave squirrel poop all over Boy-On-Boy Action's desk before escaping in a frightened squirrel frenzy.
I tell you this story because when Boy-on-Boy Action demanded I change his nickname, I said his only other option was Squirrel Nuggets. And he said that was better than Boy-on-Boy Action.
And that, my friends, is why he will stay Boy-on-Boy Action. Consider Squirrel Nuggets a pet name, pun intended.
Also, today I committed random acts of commerce, which is why I now own some so-ugly-they're-cute Mary Jane-type shoes, the Back to the Future trilogy on DVD, and some very nice clothes I picked up at American Eagle Outfitters. The only reason I bring this up is because my cashier at American Eagle was on crack. You know, there's Helpful, and then there's I Know I Just Met You, But Can I Please Stalk You Profesionally? It's entirely possible I would have let him stalk me if he'd asked me, because he was incredibly cute, but it's also possible for me to contribute his cuteness to his being adorably seven years old. Plus, he may have had the beautiful bastard offspring of Disney and anime eyes, but don't quote me on it, as I lost a good hour staring into them as he rung up my puchases. Don't worry, I felt properly pervy afterward.
And I think I found a new reason to go to Landmark Mall more often -- to casually take hits off the new incense store. Seriously, there's this hole-in-the-wall store that may have been a Lids before but now it only sells incense burners, and stumbling bleary-eyed Jesus in tie-dye and dreads, but it's an adventure to walk past it. You're just strolling along, whistling a happy tune and swinging your Gap bag back and forth, and suddenly you walk straight into a wall of sandlewood and patchouli ... and get stuck. And an hour later, you finally emerge, much happier and fully prepared to dangle from some gigantic rearview mirror.
Today, when I was entering data from the airbills, I came across a package being sent to a woman whose first name was Shelter. Oh, God, I so have to use that in a story. *adores*
In other news, the busy little widget that I am, I've got the Pairing List That Ate Fandom up to date, added my newest DVDs to the master list, and I'm now off to work on writing out the contributions to the next Pairing List. (So, you know, if anybody else wants to suggest characters, they can. 'Cause some of us who shall remain nameless as we frantically write out character names said we wouldn't contribute and we wouldn't mind at all if someone tossed in some Jake 2.0 or Terminator or Tomorrow People characters while they were adding their suggestions. If someone nice were to do that, we'd promise to stop using the royal "we", witch's honor.)

But, uh, other than that we kind just kicked it around for laughs. So I suppose it was a drug. ...You could put pizza on it too. So it was a pizza holder drug."
I wonder what I'm going to get for that exam...
