More fish!

And End of the Work Week Wisdom!

Me: Who would win in a fight? Red fish or blue fish?
Jerome: Neither, they'd just hang out on opposite sides of a canyon and spy on each other.
Nick: And by some twist of fate, red fish and blue fish will have to join forces to fight the greater good like in the '80's cartoon cliche; i.e. GI Joe and Cobra wamping up on a bigger bad guy. Personally I would be worried about one fish and two fish joining forces. That would have red and blue out numbered.
--Conversation + LJ = madness

So I suppose you'll be wanting an explanation. :)

Well, I mentioned making my crocheted red fish and blue fish the other day. When I got home from work on Wednesday, I was feeling really cruddy. So I basically laid on the couch for a while, which somehow turned into Jerome and I playing "who would win in a fight?" This is a silly game where you come up with two (usually fictional) characters and ask which one would defeat the other. I used to run these on my LJ on a weekly basis, but stopped after a while.

Eventually, I was just being silly, and posed the Red Fish vs. Blue Fish question. Jerome IMMEDIATELY responded with his clever little response (which references Red vs. Blue, in case you don't get it). After I posted it to my LJ, Nick chimed in with his response.

And he's right. Watch out for the team of one fish + two fish...

(I also have to take this moment to express my love of the interwebz. Nick is in Iowa, and yet we can still talk to him, at least virtually speaking. Now if only I could convince the rest of my Carbondale friends to get on LJ more often, it would be like we never left... except for that whole part about us being in a much nicer place now. :) )

Argh... work today has been hectic and crazy, though most of that has been since lunch. I'm off work Wednesday, and the boss is leaving for a trip and won't be here Friday, so I guess it makes a little bit of sense. Gotta cram everything into three days this week.

It also figures, because I had a great weekend, so work automatically becomes suckier. Got to watch X-3, Boondock Saints, and the first season of Red vs. Blue, all on Saturday. Also got to have a couple of great conversations, and played some frisbee. And I might be getting a kitten. Like really really soon.

So yeah, it's a mix of kewl stuff and annoying work... I think I'll live. Less than 2 hours left of work, at which point I get to go home, make some dinner and wash the dishes, do a little bit of sewing on the machine, and then probably spend the rest of the evening chatting online, which has yet again become a favored pasttime... wonder why... ;)

Tomorrow, I get to go to the 6-6-6 party / goth night at the Upstairs. This should be a rockin' good time. I know 3 of the 5 DJs, and another of them is from C-dale originally... I think I may have met her at Rasputina, now that I think about it... hopefully the gamer geek crowd will be out in full force, and I can chat with them, and perhaps dance a little. Perhaps. :)

In the meantime, more work to do, as always... *sigh*...
