Have you ever met any celebrities? Any interesting stories?
Submitted by Tasha.

I met James Marsters the summer of '05, in Canada at a convention.  It was pretty much the sweetest thing ever.  While I was there I also saw Jhonen Vasquez and Elvira (Cassandra Peterson), along with a buch of other people I didn't really know of/care about.  I could have bought tickets to go see James sing and do a Q&A, but it was like some insane amount of money, so, I just pretty much camped outside the back door of the room he was in.  I was well worth the countless hours I sat there.
I also saw the Pope this past summer, if he counts as a celebrity.
I think that's about it.......
Yeah, exciting, huh............

What's the first image that comes up when you Google your name?

It's a pretty stupid/boring picture if you ask me, but yeah..........

google-name

In which fictional world/universe/land/city would you most like to live?

Sunnydale, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
It'd pretty much be the sweetest thing ever.

We know you never slack off at work, but if you did, what would you do?

HaHa.  Ok, well, I don't really slack off at work.  Not really, I guess.  Although if it gets really dead, I normally just end up standing around or go find a snack to buy and stuff my face full of food.  I try and get all the useful things done that I can before that happen though.
However, school is an entirely differently story.  In fact, for the past like three days of last school week, in fourth block (Cellular/Molecular Biology......  evilness), we had gone to the computer lab to work on a project.  However the computers at school are Windows (evilness) and I always do projects at home, so I spent all that time pretty much just surfing the net.  I made sure I was productive though.  I now know that I can access threadless.com, along with most of the blogs there, AND log into my account, even with their evil filter of DOOM in place.  I also found that I can look at the blog on Vox.  I wasn't brave enough to log into Vox though, although I'm pretty sure I could have done it.
